@ouroldhouse: So many 100% true historical facts packed into 60 seconds. Old houses had no walk in closets because people were tiny, they owned no clothing, and they couldn't spare the floor space because of having a million kids. There's genuinely no better way to spend a renovation dollar (or even a regular dollar) than by adding a usable closet space to a pre-existing bedroom. It's cheaper than a wardrobe system, and makes the entire room so much more functional! I'm willing to be wrong, and if you think I am, you can tell me all about it in the comments! #closet #oldhouse #theforgehouse #ouroldhouse #closetmakeover #customcloset #closetdesign #newcloset #DIY #reclaimedwood #latheandplaster #History #pa #DIY #pennsylvania #EspecialistasEmPontos

We have ONE pocket door and it’s in my daughter’s room and she thinks it’s haunted. I am so jealous

Okay but why does the tiny closet in my 1900 home have a bar for clothes 9 and 1/2 feet up? 🤔

Long ago property taxes were based on the number of rooms in a house. Closets were counted as a room, so many homes were built w/out closets and wardrobes were used instead. ❤️

I’m curious.. regular doors (at least here in Sweden) have different levels of security in case of fire and acts as fire cells.. how does these type of doors protect against fire? Do you know? :)

We turned a walk-in closet in one of our bedrooms into a full bathroom. Then on the other side of the room we built a new walk-in closet with a barn door. Barn doors: 73% more pleasing than pocket!

I'm 5'1 and this is why I need an older house. Newer houses are made for giants, like how are you supposed to reach the top cabinet without a ladder?!?

They hung their clothes on smaller hangers too, in my sister’s house (early 1900’s) the closets aren’t deep enough to hang a regular hanger on the bar. Closets are also about 3 1/2’ wide. 😬

I always thought it was because people only had to close they were wearing. Had to sew a whole new outfit whenever they took a bath.
