Washers and Dryers for 30 1/2" deep closet?
Comments (3)Out of curiosity, I just measured depth of my Speed Queen 542. It is 28". My own "closet" is deeper than OP's but on-principal I've always used goose-neck connectors to my machines which minimizes hose-flex at the connection points. Additional depth to accommodate the hoses, then, is less than that required for the much larger drain-hose on the machine. I'd have to measure carefully, but I strongly suspect total additional-depth requirement of OP would work. The dryer's vent-depth allowance would be more troublesome, I would think.

Comments (7)Okay...follow the directions on the closetmaid site. Basically, you measure :) You're measuring the wall space without any of the fittings in place. Depth would be from the back to the front. and width would be side to side. Don't include door casing in your measurements. Don't forget that you can also add shelves (or recycle what you take out) above the door space on the inside. It's a great place for things you don't need to access every day....See MoreNarrow and deep closet - what to do?
Comments (18)We have a similar set up with a hall closet under the stairwell. It's definitely a tricky space. We hung a bar across the top and use baskets on the floor under the hanging section. In the back of the closet where it is hard to access we store off season items. In our case it's Christmas decorations. In your case, off season clothes would work well. We have hooks on the side walls for hats and other light items. Too bad you have a louvered door because we use the back of the door for storage....See More1 deep and narrow closet vs. 2 shallow closets
Comments (7)How about option 3 - move the doorway into the bedroom all the way to the left where your closet door is, and then run one long closet on the entire wall from the corner the room to that doorway, so the closet is directly across from the sliders....See MoreFrankie_in_zone_7
