I set out to determine exactly what the minimum width of a small walk in closet is.
Small walk in closet size.
Especially if they are anything more than average size adults.
Of course if you can t have or don t want a full size walk n closet it doesn t mean that you can t have a walk in closet at all.
If you want hanging clothes on both sides you need at least a full 6 wide space.
Each single sided closet should have a minimum width of 5 1 52 m which provides enough space for 2 61 cm of storage with a 3 91 cm clearance aisle for access.
If you want to get dressed in your walk in closet you ll need a minimum space of 4 x 3ft 1 2 x 0 91m.
The split single sided walk in closet layout can incorporate an extra door at the end of the closet that is commonly linked to a master bathroom or other ancillary space.
Instead you can opt for a smaller walk in closet that will still do the trick to give you some extra space compared to a standard reach in closet.
Small walk in closet dimensions.
The 3ft dimension is in line with corridor width.
Any less and people will have a really hard time maneuvering in the space.
It works out to be the size of a small changing room you find at retail stores.
You need 4ft to sit and bend down to put your shoes on or put a top on one arm at a time.
