ClosetMaid Mounting Systems Bring Order to Any Home

International Builders’ Show attendees who visit ClosetMaid’s exhibit in Booth C2775 will find the latest products geared to bringing a sense of order to any home.

A featured product is ShelfTrack, an adjustable mounting system that’s easy to install. A stylish new finish from ClosetMaid — Satin Chrome Wire — is available for the new organizing system as an alternative to the manufacturer’s white wire shelving and accessories.

Satin Chrome can give builders another trend upgrade and profit opportunity for their homes, says ClosetMaid.

Builders can create their own design to fit each space and the needs of their prospective buyers. ShelfTrack accessories can be added to create the look of a coveted custom closet. Laminate or wire accessories can also be added for a unique look.

ClosetMaid also offers do-it-yourself kits at home centers nationwide that contain complete instructions and access to online help.

For more information, visit Booth C2775, or visit www.closetmaid.com.

A division of Emerson Electric based in Ocala, Fla., ClosetMaid is a member of the National Council of the Housing Industry — The Leading Suppliers of NAHB.
