Is Your Closet Green?

May 15, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Environmentally friendly materials are now available for your Get It Together LA! storage system for closets, garages, and home offices.  Recognizing the demand from consumers for “green-build products” we are offering the SkyBlendline from Roseburg

The line is SCS and EPP certified 100% pre-consumer recycled week fiber particleboard that has no Urea Formaldehyde added during the manufacturing process.  Third party testing verifies SkyBlendformaldehyde emissions (.00-.01 ppm) are no greater than levels occurring in outdoor ambient air conditions according to the manufacturer.

Roseburg is North America’s largest, fully integrated manufacturer of melamine and specialty panels with lands and facilites in California, Georgia, Mississippi, Oregon and South Carolina.  Ask for “green” when you build your next closet.

Green Tip:  Remember to return your hangers to the dry cleaner for reuse.  Ask for your clean clothes to be placed in reuseable bags from your dry cleaner and cut out the plastic.

Designing New Garage with Car in Mind

February 17, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Before you move into your new home, check out the garage.  Design your “car closet” so you can get into the car without the door hitting the the side of the garage.  How is this done and still have storage?  Slatwalls. 

Slatwalls allow vertical storage right against the walls.  Organize.com offers many hooks from Schulte that hold tools, sports equipment, and gardening supplies.  These fit on 3″ centers.

Cabinets placed to either side of your vertical storage can contain those items you want out of sight.  Now get out of the car without worries.
