How long does it take to install new custom shelves?

Less time than you’d expect, with far less disruption than a traditional renovation. Every ShelfGenie’s custom shelves in Crystal Lake are measured during your free in-home consultation and built to spec before our team returns for installation day. The work happens off-site first, so when we arrive at your Crystal Lake home, installation is clean, precise, and typically done within a few hours. The full timeline from your first consultation to the finished installation runs a few weeks for most projects. Almost all of our shelves are backed by a lifetime warranty on parts and installation for your peace of mind.

Can I add Pull-Out shelving to my existing cabinets?

Yes, we can add custom Pull-Out shelves in Crystal Lake to your existing cabinets, even if it’s a historic landmark in Historic Downtown Crystal Lake. We build them to fit the interior dimensions of the cabinet frames you already have, no replacement, no demolition, no structural work of any kind. The upgrade happens entirely within your existing cabinetry, and the difference in how those cabinets function is immediate. Homeowners across Crystal Lake regularly tell us they wish they’d done it sooner. ShelfGenie is the only nationwide franchise dedicated exclusively to designing, building, and installing custom shelving into your cabinets. That focus is what separates our results from anything a general contractor or home improvement store can offer. Our shelves are rated to hold up to 100 pounds, with a 200-pound upgrade available for shelves that need extra support.

Can I customize my current bathroom shelving?

Yes, we can install bathroom shelving in Crystal Lake directly inside your existing cabinet frames, building each shelf around your plumbing and the true interior dimensions on the inside. For Crystal Lake homeowners, it’s a high-end upgrade that eliminates under-sink chaos without touching the rest of the bathroom.

Can custom shelves work in small pantries?

Small pantries often benefit the most with 50% increased storage capacity. ShelfGenie builds custom pantry shelves in Crystal Lake to the exact height, width, and depth of your pantry, turning every inch of that space into usable, visible storage. After a stock-up run to Jewel-Osco on Route 14, you’ll have a place for everything, and actually be able to find it the next day. There’s no minimum pantry size that we require; we can work with your pantry regardless of what size it is, including historic homes or landmarks like Dole Mansion at Lakeside Legacy Arts Park or the Colonel Palmer House.
