First impressions are important.

Design stylish and orderly entryways with storage and organizational solutions from Häfele.

Samantha Moore, Assistant Marketing Communications Manager at Häfele America Co.

The entryway: This space is often the last one you pass through when you leave home and the first one you see when you walk back through the door. It’s also the first room your guests see when they arrive at your house – and you know the saying, “You only get one shot at making a good first impression.” That’s why this month we’re highlighting some storage and organizational solutions from Häfele which will help you prioritize function, order and style in entryways and mudrooms.

 

A warm welcome. A helpful goodbye.

Shoes. Coat. Purse. Keys. Have it all hanging neatly and stylishly by the door for grab-and-go access. With the TAG Hardware Symphony Wall Mount Organizer, your drop zone will look more like a professionally organized gallery wall. Offering a variety of sizes, styles and accessory add-ons – Symphony can be customized with the exact storage solutions you need to organize your day-to-day essentials – making the going and coming part of your day a lot easier. And even better – Symphony extends only five inches from the wall which means you can have it behind or beside the door without blocking the walkway.

 

 

Creative. Custom. Open.

Entryway storage is made more creative and personal with the YouK Shelf System. This shelving system allows you to mix and match ladders of different heights and depths to build an open storage system designed around your exact needs. The ladders are available in 200 mm (7 7/8“) or 300 mm (12 5/8“) depths and accommodate practically any shelving material of your choosing. This allows you to customize things even further by adding accessories to the shelves like a suspended wardrobe tube for coat storage or lighting for better visibility. With YouK – you can create a custom, functional open storage system and have it conveniently located by the entryway for easy access of everyday items.

Handy. And heavy duty, too.

Our storage needs change all the time – and that’s especially true for the mudroom or entryway where jackets, bags, shoes and other daily items are dropped. If your storage needs include weighty coats, bulky boots or other heavy items – HandiWALL is the perfect choice for your home. This slatwall system offers complete storage customization – allowing you to hand pick your storage accessories which includes a wide variety of steel constructed hooks, shelves and baskets. With some shelves providing a weight capacity up to 125 lbs. and select hooks offering a durable locking feature – HandiWALL ensures you have a sturdy place to store and hang all your entryway items.

 

Have a hook for everything.

Off the floor and onto the hook. Skip the coat rack and put it on the wall instead. With the TAG Hardware Cleat Hook System you’ll have a stylish spot for everything you need to store. Adding cleat hooks not only increases storage and organization in your entryway or mudroom – but it also allows you to personalize things a bit. Cleat hooks are installed on the cleat board of your choice and are available in seven different TAG Hardware finishes – making it easy to find the perfect color to match your design. The Synergy ELITE Coat Hooks and Double Hooks are perfect for storing coats, hats, purses, umbrellas and more.

Storage that’s good for the sole.

Shoes come in twos – which can lead to a mountain of mess if several pair are left in a pile by the front or back door. Prevent any dangerous tripping hazards by using your wall space for a convenient storage solution like our Wall-Mounted Shoe Rack. The racks attach to a height adjustable wall track and are expandable up to 29 1/2” in length – allowing you to store several pair in a row. The racks are also angled and extend less than 8” from the wall meaning you can store larger shoes without taking up too much room in the walkway.

 

Keeping entryways and mudrooms organized is all about identifying the right system which fits your client’s individual storage needs. If you start with Häfele, you’ll be on the right track to finding storage solutions which help increase functionality, order and style in the spaces everyone sees and uses every day.
