I have narrowed my very large walk-in closet system between 2 companies:
easyclosets.com and closetscentral.com They are very close in price and it seems that their product is the same. Same particle board, locking cams, etc., etc., (I can't believe they charge that much for particle board and laminate) anyhow, the biggest issue is deciding which system is most worth the money. The biggest difference they seem to have is the type of wall mounting. One uses a track and the other uses a nailer board.
Can anyone tell me which they think is better? They both claim to be able to hold 1000+ pounds and all their reviews on their websites of course say they are the best.
Any personal experiences with these or other closet companies for a large wood walk-in closet system would be greatly appreciated.

The nailer board is more common
But really it looks like the track is esentially a nailer board, it's just a different design

I've not installed either of these companies products specifically to give you a first hand opinion or test results, but the weight held should be the same

I can tell you I have been using nailer boards, and installing products with nailer boards for years and they work well
I would have no problem buying/installing a system that used them for myself or a customer
