ArrangeWise

ArrangeWise is an owner-operated custom closet and organization company founded in 2020 that specializes in high-quality RTA (Ready-To-Assemble) cabinet systems for homeowners in the GTA North. They provide design consultation and installation services for walk-in closets, reach-in closets, mudrooms, pantries, and custom storage solutions, aiming to deliver custom appearance and functionality at 30-40% less cost than traditional competitors.

The business is located at 6-521 Dunlop St W, Unit 6, Barrie, Ontario, with a showroom open by appointment Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. In-home visits are free within about an hour of Barrie, while remote consultations are free outside that area, or a $150 measuring visit can be credited toward the design retainer.

To get started, customers can complete an online fit-check that takes about a minute to determine if the project aligns with their capabilities. Once confirmed, they can schedule a free showroom visit or an in-home consultation, after which a design retainer unlocks full 3D design renderings and a written line-item quote.

The typical turnaround time from design sign-off to installation is 3-4 weeks, though some reach-in closet systems can be finished in 1-2 days. The entire process includes careful site prep, precise installation, hardware tuning, and a final walkthrough, all backed by a 12-month limited warranty.

Pricing starts at $1,200 for a reach-in closet, with walk-in closets beginning at $3,500 and pantries starting at $3,900. The final cost depends on square footage, materials, hardware choices, and installation complexity, with most jobs falling between $3,800 and $8,500.

The company offers six main storage solutions including walk-in closets, reach-in closets, pantry organization, garage storage, mudroom systems, and laundry room storage. Each system is custom-quoted based on the specific space, materials selected, and any add-ons like lighting or soft-close hardware.

The team operates as a small, owner-operated group with no franchise fees or commissioned salespeople, ensuring the budget goes directly into the closet build. They emphasize measuring actual spaces rather than using franchise scripts, with every closet designed, built to order, and installed by the same local team.

The showroom is located at 521 Dunlop St W, Unit 6, and offers free, no-pressure first conversations where customers can feel finishes, open drawers, and talk through their space in a private, unhurried setting.

The company serves a wide area including Barrie, Aurora, Markham, Newmarket, Richmond Hill, Bradford, and other GTA North locations, with specific attention to condo logistics like elevator bookings and freight management.

Every project includes complimentary in-home consultations within about an hour of Barrie, and all quotes include free showroom consultations, 3D design visualization, professional installation, and post-installation cleanup with no hidden fees.

The founder, Alexey Alekseev, has over five years in business and more than a decade of experience building cabinetry, focusing on creating custom-fit solutions that fit rooms down to the millimetre.

The business holds $5M liability insurance and employs WSIB-covered crews, ensuring that all installations are professionally insured and compliant with local regulations.

The company provides a 12-month limited warranty on all their custom closet systems, covering the professional installation and materials used in the build.

The website mentions that most projects are installed within 3-4 weeks of design sign-off, and they offer a quick fit-check online to quickly determine if a project is a fit before booking a consultation.
