Strategically placed hooks provide spots to hang garments removed from the wardrobe. This enables the individual to reach for one garment at a time without having to move elsewhere to put it down while getting another.

The closet also has hooks at the back, for storage of infrequently used garments. These hooks may not be easy for the individual to access, but they improve the storage space in the wardrobes. The individual may require help from an assistant when seasons change and a winter coat or summer dress is needed.
