An existing electrical outlet is removed from the wall where the closet opening was made. The wiring is rerouted around the new closet space. A new outlet box is installed in the adjacent wall. A hole is cut for a new light switch, and a single-pole light switch is installed. Wiring for a light fixture is also run to the ceiling of the new closet area. The creator ensures the wiring is accessible before the drywall is installed, making future maintenance easier.
