Best Answer

To hang clothes on a coat hanger, a wardrobe or closet must be at least 500mm deep, but preferably 600mm deep (about 2') so that the clothes hang without the door pressing against them.

The minimum height for hanging shirts is about 900mm (3') but to accommodate longer shirts and skirts 1200mm (4') is preferable. For trouser hanging without folds, 1200mm (4') is the minimum. Dresses require 1500-1800mm (5-6') depending on length.

Remember to allow for the height of the hangers and a little space above the rail to get hangers in and out when planning a closet or wardrobe.

The overall width of a closet or wardrobe will be set by the amount of clothing you have to store.

Shelf storage for folded clothing such as T shirts or jerseys/pullovers/sweaters should be about 500mm deep and at least 400mm wide. If stacking several, allow a little space to lift the top one before the next shelf height.
