A Simple Guide to Make the Process Smooth and Stress-Free
Ordering custom furniture is exciting — but installation day can feel overwhelming if you’re not prepared.
At Armadio Closets, we aim to make the entire experience seamless, from first design sketch to final screw. That includes helping you get your space ready before our team arrives.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you prepare your home for a smooth, stress-free custom installation.
1. Clear the Area
Before our team arrives, make sure the installation zone is completely empty. That includes:
- Furniture in front of the wall
- Items inside existing wardrobes or cabinets
- Loose rugs or floor decor
- Anything breakable nearby
Why it matters:
It saves time, protects your belongings, and helps us get straight to work.
2. Secure Access & Parking
Let us know in advance if:
- Your building requires a gate pass or lift reservation
- There’s limited parking near your entrance
- There are specific delivery hours in your community
Why it matters:
Ensures smooth entry and avoids delays or rescheduling.
3. Protect Surrounding Surfaces
We take every precaution to protect your flooring, walls, and nearby finishes — but if you have sensitive surfaces (like freshly painted walls or marble floors), let us know.
You can also:
- Cover nearby furniture with dust sheets
- Remove light fixtures or art near the work zone
4. Prepare for Light Noise & Movement
While we install efficiently and cleanly, a custom build is still construction. There will be:
- Some noise from tools
- Minor dust (especially if demolition is involved)
- Foot traffic through your home
Tip:
If possible, schedule installation during a quiet day at home — or step out while we work.
5. Keep Kids and Pets Safe
Out of caution and efficiency, it’s best to keep children and pets away from the work zone.
Why it matters:
Prevents injury, avoids distractions, and ensures faster installation.
6. Check Power Outlets & Lighting
Let us know where nearby outlets are for tools, and ensure the space is well lit. If the area is under construction, we may need temporary lighting.
7. Have Your Plan Handy
While we work from approved shop drawings, it’s always helpful if you have your final design plan or material samples nearby — especially for last-minute confirmations or adjustments.
8. Leave Time for a Final Walkthrough
Once installation is complete, we’ll walk you through the entire setup, test all moving parts, and answer any questions. This is your chance to give feedback and make sure everything is perfect.
Pro Tip: Let Us Handle the Heavy Lifting
We don’t expect you to prep alone. Our team coordinates every step but the more ready your home is, the smoother it goes.
When you choose Armadio design closets, you’re not just getting beautiful custom interiors — you’re getting a partner who handles every detail, start to finish.
