How the Custom Closet Cost Calculator Works
This custom closet cost calculator helps you estimate the cost of building a custom closet based on several parameters. Here’s how to use it:
How to Use
- Enter the width, depth, and height of the closet in feet.
- Select the material you want to use from the dropdown menu. Each material has a different cost per square foot.
- Enter the number of shelves and drawers you want in the closet.
- Click the “Calculate” button to get the estimated cost.
How It Calculates the Results
The calculator multiplies the width, depth, and height to get the total volume in square feet. Then, it applies the cost per square foot based on the selected material:
- Wood: $50 per sqft
- Metal: $75 per sqft
- Glass: $100 per sqft
It also adds the cost for additional shelves and drawers:
- Each shelf: $20
- Each drawer: $30
The total cost is the sum of these calculations.
Limitations
There are a few limitations to this calculator:
- The prices for materials, shelves, and drawers are fixed and may not reflect real-market prices.
- The calculator assumes a rectangular shape for the closet and may not be accurate for other shapes.
- It does not account for other factors like labor costs, taxes, and additional features such as lighting or custom designs.
