There is no such thing as ‘easy’.

Closet. Simple, right? A little paint, a little light, some shelves.
Simple? The way multi-variable calculus is simple.
Paint? After washing 40 years of crud from the walls, maybe.
Light? Don’t get me started on finding electricity in this joint.
Shelves? Finding studs is impossible because of the foil-backed insulation. The regular wallboard fasteners that come with Closetmaid stuff don’t work on the back wall, since it’s the wall between the house and the garage, and therefore double sheetrock.
Nothing major. There’s a workaround for everything. But it’s like being pecked to death by ducks. It hurts, and it takes MUCH too long.
