Custom Reach-In Closets in San Messina, Weston: Built-In Drawers That Replace the Dresser
Can a reach-in closet replace a dresser in a Weston bedroom? It can, and in this San Messina home, it did. We fitted the bedroom's sliding-door closet with a custom system: a built-in tower of four full-width drawers, open shelves above it, double-hang on one side and long-hang on the other. The dresser left the room, and the bedroom got its floor space back. Since the start of 2025, our team has completed about 40 projects in Weston. Why San Messina Bedroom Closets Are Different San Messina is a small lakefront community in Weston's 33327 zip code, with a community pool, clubhouse and playground, close to Gator Run Elementary. Its homes are mostly one-story, three-bedroom, two-bath houses of around 1,350 square feet, built in the mid-1990s as Weston grew out of Arvida's original Indian Trace plan. In a home that size, every bedroom counts. A dresser, a bed and a desk can fill a secondary bedroom quickly, while the closet behind the sliding doors still has the single rod and one shelf it came with almost 30 years ago. Moving drawers into the closet is one of the simplest ways to open up a bedroom without changing its footprint, and it keeps clothing behind doors instead of on the furniture. The Project Our designer measured the full opening, including the space behind each sliding door panel, so every section is easy to reach when the doors slide open. - A built-in tower of four full-width drawers with brushed bar pulls - Two open shelves above the drawers for folded clothing and baskets - Double-hang on the left for shirts and pants - Long-hang on the right for dresses, coats and longer items - A shelf above each hanging section for bags and seasonal storage - Clean white finish with bronze rods, built to handle South Florida humidity Every shelf and rod can be adjusted later, so the closet can move from a child's room to a teen's room to a guest room without starting over. Installation was handled by our own in-house team, typically in three to five days.
