WALL JOGS AND OBSTRUCTIONS ON BACK WALL
When your closet has one or
more jogs along the back wall,
you must install uprights at the
end of each wall jog (Fig. 4). Take
care when screwing into wall
jogs, as it is possible it may mask
plumbing, vents or other non-
standard wall construction.
WINDOWS, ELECTRICAL OR ALARM BOXES ON SIDE WALL
Depending upon the size and location
of the side wall obstacle, there are
many solutions to this problem. First,
if possible, design long hang against
the sidewall and use the shelf and
pole bracket to support the top shelf
and pole. Second, if using the rail
hanging system, use the short upright
or notch it to fit around the obstacle
(Fig. 5). (NOTE: Do not notch more
than half the depth of the panel.)
Lastly, when necessary for adequate
weight support, use the corbel mounted
into a wall stud closest to the sidewall
to support the top shelf and pole.
ANGLED SIDE WALL
When possible, use the shelf and pole bracket mounted along the angled side wall. As the
bracket will no longer be perpendicular to the pole, it will be necessary to cut away a portion of
the plastic pole cup
for the pole to fit in it
at an angle (Fig. 6).
Alternatively, when
the shelf and pole
bracket cannot be
used in conjunction
with the angled
wall, install a corbel
or upright, leaving
the unusable closet
corner.
