What ClosetMaid does

ClosetMaid, founded in 1965 and headquartered in Orlando, Florida, is a manufacturer and retailer of residential home organization and storage products operating as a brand division of The AMES Companies, Inc., itself a subsidiary of publicly traded conglomerate Griffon Corporation (NYSE: GFF). The company's product portfolio centers on wire shelving systems and wood closet organizers, extended into garage storage (ProGarage, heavy-duty wire, utility cabinets), modular cube storage (Cubeicals), and kitchen/pantry organization, with sub-brands including Mosaics, SpaceCreations, SuiteSymphony, Closet Maximizer, Modular Closet, ExpressShelf, MasterSuite, and ShelfTrack EVO. ClosetMaid manufactures at four US facilities in Ocala FL, Chino CA, Belle Vernon PA, and Fife WA, with finished goods sourced primarily (70-80%) from China and Vietnam.

ClosetMaid monetizes through three streams: direct-to-consumer product sales via the homebyames.com e-commerce storefront (individual kits priced approximately $100-$603), B2B sales to an authorized dealer network with mandatory annual purchase volumes of $45,000-$50,000 plus operational requirements, and a $5 Professional Design Service that delivers two initial custom design concepts within four business days. Distribution spans consumer e-commerce, a dedicated B2B portal (b2b.closetmaid.com), a professional trade portal (closetmaidpro.com), and a white-glove installer network under CustomClosetMaid. Customer segments include DIY homeowners, do-it-for-me homeowners, building professionals (architects, builders, contractors), and authorized dealers.

The company operates within The AMES Companies portfolio alongside AMES, Harper, True Temper, and other home and garden brands, and in June 2026 was combined into the Veritage Brands joint venture with Venanpri Group, expanding global operations across North America, South America, and Europe. ClosetMaid currently operates in the United States and Canada and serves the US Large Closet Organizer market, estimated at $4.5-6.0 billion in 2026 with projected 4-7% CAGR through 2035.
