There are many closet systems available to make over your closet and they range in price from $150 - $4,000 depending on the size and design options you chose for your space. A few of the closet systems manufacturers are as follows:
Container Store
Closet Factory
Closets By Design
Closet Maid

You can have the company install your closet system or you can save money by planning and installing it yourself. Space Planning is key to maximizing the storage space to accommodate your closet inventory. Here are some tips from ClosetMaid and EasyClosets.com:
1. Take inventory: make a detailed, itemized list of everything stashed in a closet and then you can determine how much space you will need for short and long- hanging items as well as whether you need drawers, shelves or both.
2. Plan for various heights: Measure shoe heights for tall heels and boots as well
3. Do the Math: Plan your hanging storage around the length of your clothes.
Standard vertical measurements for clothing items:
Women's Shirts: 36-40 in long
Men's Blazers and Shirts: 38-42 in long
Women's Skirts: 38-42in long
Women's long dresses and Coats: 60-70 in long
Women's cocktail dresses and pants hung by cuffs: 48-50 in long
Double-hung pants: 20 in long
