Does a Bedroom Have to Have a Closet? | Code Requirements for Bedrooms


Common sense or nonsense? The International Residential Code is very specific about the minimum requirements for bedrooms. This is the code adopted by almost every municipality in the US. It addresses room size, egress, ceiling height, window size and placement, number of electrical outlets, and more. Guess what is NOT a requirement? A closet. That doesn’t mean YOU can’t require a closet, but a room doesn’t need a closet to meet IRC codes for a bedroom!
