Preset guide
Closet shelf plywood preset
Use this page for shelves, dividers, cleats, and closet panels cut from plywood or sheet stock. It plans material usage, not wall attachment, span safety, or installation details.
| Input | Example | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Shelf lengths | Repeated shelf boards | Measure installed opening carefully. |
| Shelf depth | Common repeated dimension | Depth strongly affects sheet yield. |
| Dividers | Vertical panels | Check visible face orientation if needed. |
| Cleats | Small strips | Consider whether offcuts can be used. |
Closet project workflow
Enter finished shelf dimensions after measuring the actual opening. Generate once, then look for offcuts that can become cleats, small shelves, or test pieces.
| Review | Reason |
|---|---|
| Actual opening width | Walls may not be square or parallel. |
| Shelf depth | Repeats across the project. |
| Support method | Outside the optimizer scope. |
| Offcut reuse | Can reduce new sheet needs. |
Installation boundary
StockCut does not validate load capacity, wall fastening, brackets, anchors, or building conditions. Treat the output as a cutting plan only.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using nominal closet width instead of measured opening width.
- Ignoring walls that are out of square.
- Forgetting support cleats or divider panels.
- Treating layout output as shelf load advice.
