WE GIVE BACK:
Throughout the past 10-years, we’ve been honored to be able to contribute to those who really need a little neighborly support. The NBC TV show, George to the Rescue, is a powerful force for good—we’ve donated to eight projects so far. Through this show, we’ve helped a young Paralympian athlete, several families, a school for kids who need special nurturing, and a community cancer resource center.
We’ve assisted with Habitat for Humanity homes, the Ronald McDonald House, and the Fairway Foundation Veteran’s Home project with IDS and NARI. In collaboration with IDS LI and NARI NY, we’ve volunteered to help raise funds for many great causes and dedicated non-profits.

GO GREEN:
The particle board material we use to create your closet system is from 100% recovered or recycled wood-fibers. All made in North America. It is certified to ECC (Eco-Certified Composite Grademark Program Certification) standards by the CPA (Composite Panel Association) and produced in a licensed facility. This includes:
- Carbon Footprint: The panel’s carbon score off-sets its cradle-to-gate carbon footprint
- Local & Renewable Resource: At least 85% of total annual wood fiber is sourced within 250 miles of the manufacturing plant
- Wood Sourcing: Forest Stewardship Council chain of custody certification. The material requires formaldehyde emissions equal to or lower than CARB (California Air Resource Board) phase 1 levels.
- Symmetry Closets is committed to using North American-sourced melamine because it’s the environmentally friendly choice. It’s the healthier choice for your family and ours, and for air quality we all can enjoy.
Bonnie Reich
President and Founder
I started my career in the custom closet industry in 2001 and what started as a temporary shift in my design career became a fascination. Previously, I practiced architecture for 10 years, designing and detailing mostly commercial spaces. I worked on large projects, from bookstores to boutiques. I never really gave much thought to the storage spaces in a project.
In architecture, the closets are residual; the leftovers spaces that remain after the primary rooms and site lines are laid out. In custom closet design, you have to find a way to make these leftovers the main course.
Long before I went to architecture school at Virginia Tech, I was in juvenile furniture sales while I was a student at Brooklyn College. I loved sales, working with people; getting to know them and helping them make great selections. The custom closet industry was a great fit for me because it brought my two strong skills together, sales and design.
I am aware that my experience in architectural design informs the work we do at Symmetry Closets. I like to find the simple, elegant solution to any space problem. I also know my experience in construction helps our customers. I have a knack for determining what is possible and guiding our customers through the entire process.
I worked for several established custom closet companies. While I enjoyed working through the designs with homeowners, the end results always fell short, mainly because I could not control the entire process. I decided that if I was going to stay in the custom closet business, I had to start a new kind of company; one that paired professional space planning with excellent customer service.
And so, Symmetry Closets began as a recommendation and referral-based business. We continue growing because we maintain strong relationships. We enjoy working with our customers, their interior designers, and contractors because we love making people happy. I’m very proud of all the growth and changes we are experiencing and our continued commitment to providing the highest quality of service to our customers and our community.
