Coat racks are great, lightweight, inexpensive ideas for storage, especially if you’re somebody who likes to throw your clothes on the floor. However, for small spaces like studio apartments, they can take up valuable floor space needed for other things. The solution to this is the wall coat rack.

Wall coat racks are ideal for small spaces, like a studio apartment your child’s room, because they provide a lot of vertical storage space without taking up additional floor space. They can also have shelving included above them to store things that can’t be hung, like blankets. They are an ideal alternative to putting in extra closet space when this is an impractical idea for financial or logistical reasons, or when there simply isn’t space to do so. All you need to put one in is readily accessible wall space. In some situations, one can also simply be hung on the back of the door to provide handy storage space without taking up any extra wall space.

You can also adjust the height of the wall coat rack for the person using it. For instance, wall coat racks are great way to teach small children to hang up their own coats and clothing. The wall coat rack is easier to use than a traditional closet and hangers are for little fingers, and unlike closets, no special adjustments are needed. Simply position the wall coat rack to the desired height. You will need to be relatively handy with tools to use a wall coat rack because it will need to be mounted to the wall, but this is relatively simple and instructions should be provided, or can be found by doing an Internet search.

There are almost as many choices when you’re looking for a wall coat rack as there are when you’re looking for a freestanding coat rack. Do you want the modern look of metal, or the classic beauty of wood? What color or theme is the decor you’ll be using it with, so that you can find a coat rack that best fits into the room’s design? How much space are you going to need? Is this coat rack going to be hung in the hallway so that it will get a lot of traffic, so that you’ll need more hanging space? Are you going to need extra storage with it, so that you’ll need shelving above the coat racks hooks, or would a mirror be handy?

Whatever the options you choose, the wall coat rack is a great way to use vertical space that would otherwise go unused, very inexpensively and easily!
