# Capturing Closets / Wardrobes

Wardrobes and built-in closets can be added to your floor plan to represent recessed storage spaces within a room.

Wardrobes and closets are measured exactly the same way as a door opening. They are captured during measurement as a special door type and then refined afterward using the editing tools.

You do not need to measure inside the wardrobe or closet space.

***

### Capture the Opening

Capture the wardrobe or closet opening in the same way you would measure a door.

You can use any supported door measurement method that best suits the opening and surrounding space.

**Note:** Wardrobes and closets use the same measurement techniques as doors. For supported opening methods and active reference point guidance, see **Capturing Doors**.

***

#### Workflow

1. Confirm the first edge or jamb of the wardrobe or closet opening
2. Select **Closet / Wardrobe**
3. Measure the opening exactly as you would a door
4. Switch the active reference point if required
5. Confirm the opposite edge or jamb

The wardrobe or closet opening will then appear in the floor plan.

After the second pause point is confirmed, the app automatically returns to **Wall mode**.

***

### Best Practice

For the most accurate results:

* Use the same technique you would use when measuring a door
* Place LX1 flat and fully still during each **pause point**
* Switch the active reference point when needed to match the opening edges
* Choose the method that provides the cleanest and easiest access to the opening
* Do not measure inside the wardrobe or closet space

The shape and depth are refined afterward using the editing tools.

***

### Define the Wardrobe / Closet Space

After measuring:

1. Tap the wardrobe or closet in the floor plan
2. Tap **Edit Closet / Wardrobe**
3. Drag the side markers to align with the opening edges
4. Drag the back marker so it aligns with the inside wall edges
5. Tap **Apply**

The editable area represents the internal usable floor space.

This works similarly to editing stairs.

***

### Wardrobe / Closet Styles

You can change how the wardrobe or closet appears in the floor plan.

Available styles may include:

* Swing
* Sliding
* Open

The selected style updates instantly.

***

### Important

* Measure wardrobes and closets exactly the same way as doors
* Use the same placement and active reference point workflow as a door opening
* Do not measure inside the wardrobe or closet space
* Shape and depth are refined afterward using the editing tools
* Editing affects appearance and displayed dimensions only
* Wall geometry remains based on the original LX1 measurement

***

### Result

Once defined:

* The wardrobe or closet appears as a recessed space within the room
* Dimensions display directly within the drawing
* The floor plan updates automatically
* Measurement continues in **Wall mode** and you can continue measuring or select another feature if needed

***

### Key Tip

Think of wardrobes and closets as:

**Measured like a door — refined through editing.**

Capture the opening during measurement, then use the [**Edit Closet / Wardrobe**](/en/moasure-lx1/your-moasure-app/editing-your-floor-plan/edit-closets-wardrobes.md) tools to define the shape, depth and appearance afterward.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.moasure.com/en/moasure-lx1/measure-with-moasure-lx1/add-room-features/capturing-closets-wardrobes.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
