This CIA website is the greatest innovation the closet industry has seen since the 32 mm system
Why CIA?
A note from our director....
I began my closet career in 1984. The purpose for this website is because many people along the way helped me on my closet journey, and now I am giving back.
"If only I had had this type of resource 37 years ago, I would have saved myself hundreds of thousands of dollars in costly and avoidable mistakes."
Jeff Klein – CIA Director
