Have any of you installed the closet organizers that Home Depot offers? Scale of 1-10, how difficult is it? Any tips?

I've put in stuff that came from Menards and I assume they're similar. One of the simpler jobs I've done. Most critical step is making sure everything goes in level.

The hardest part is cutting the shelving material to length. You will need a hacksaw, a jig saw with metal cutting blade, or a hefty set of bolt cutters to do this.
Be sure to fasten all support brackets to studs. I have seen instances where supports were attached to drywall only and later came loose.
I use a short level(torpedo type) to level the shelving front to back. A longer level works best for leveling side to side. Good luck with your project.

Thanks for the replies. I installed it tonight at her house, I used anchors whenever studs weren't there. So far everything is hanging tight. :-)
