The Ultimate Entryway Storage Buying Guide
Your entryway is the first thing you see when you come home. It sets the tone for your whole house. Good entryway storage keeps clutter away. It makes coming and going much easier. This guide helps you choose the best storage for your space.
1. Key Features to Look For
Smart features make storage work better for you. Think about what you need to store right away.
Storage Types
- Hooks and Pegs: Great for coats, bags, and keys. Look for sturdy hooks that won’t bend under weight.
- Benches with Storage: These offer a place to sit while putting on shoes. The storage underneath is often a lift-top or cubbies.
- Cabinets and Lockers: These hide clutter completely. They are perfect for mail, gloves, or seasonal items.
- Mail Sorters/Trays: Small shelves or slots keep incoming and outgoing mail organized.
Size and Fit
Measure your space carefully. Do you need something tall and narrow, or wide and low? Some units are designed to fit snugly into small hallways. Others use vertical space effectively in larger foyers.
2. Important Materials
The material affects how long the storage lasts and how it looks.
Wood and Wood Composites
- Solid Wood (Oak, Maple): This is the highest quality. It resists scratches well and looks beautiful. It usually costs more.
- MDF (Medium-Density Fiberboard): This is common and affordable. It works well for painted finishes. It can swell if it gets very wet, so avoid placing it right next to a door that leaks water.
Metal
Metal is very strong. It suits industrial or modern styles. Metal hooks hold heavy winter coats easily. Powder-coated metal resists rust.
Wicker and Fabric Bins
These are often used inside cubbies. They add texture and hide small items like hats or scarves. Make sure the frames holding these bins are strong.
3. Factors That Improve or Reduce Quality
Quality is about durability and how easy the unit is to use every day.
Improving Quality
- Hardware: Look for smooth-gliding drawers and soft-close hinges on cabinet doors. Metal slides on drawers last longer than plastic ones.
- Assembly: Units that arrive mostly assembled tend to be sturdier. If you assemble it yourself, ensure all screws are tight and the backing board is secured well.
- Weight Capacity: Check how much weight the shelves or hooks can safely hold. This is very important if you have heavy backpacks or winter gear.
Reducing Quality
Flimsy particleboard or thin plastic parts often break quickly. If the unit wobbles when you lean on it, the quality is probably low. Cheap finishes scratch easily.
4. User Experience and Use Cases
Think about who uses the entryway and how they use it.
Family Use
If you have children, choose lower hooks or cubbies they can reach themselves. A bench with shoe storage underneath is a lifesaver for busy mornings. Assign each family member their own labeled bin or section.
Apartment Living
If space is tight, look for multi-functional pieces. A narrow console table with a mirror above it and a small shoe rack below might be all you need. Wall-mounted organizers save floor space.
The “Drop Zone”
Every entryway needs a “drop zone” for essentials. This is where keys, sunglasses, and mail land. Ensure your chosen storage has a dedicated, easy-to-reach spot for these small, daily items.
10 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Entryway Storage
Q: What is the best storage for very small entryways?
A: Wall-mounted coat racks with built-in shelves are excellent. These use vertical space without taking up floor room.
Q: Should I buy a bench with storage or separate shoe cabinets?
A: If you need a place to sit while getting ready, a bench is better. If you have many pairs of shoes, a dedicated shoe cabinet offers more organized capacity.
Q: How deep should a shoe cubby be?
A: Most standard shoe cubbies should be at least 12 to 14 inches deep to fit adult shoes comfortably.
Q: Can I use entryway storage outdoors?
A: Generally, no. Most materials will warp or rust if left outside. You need special, weather-resistant materials designed for outdoor use.
Q: What is the simplest way to organize keys?
A: Use a small magnetic strip or a key rack mounted right next to the door. This keeps them visible and easy to grab.
Q: How do I clean wooden entryway furniture?
A: Wipe down painted or sealed wood with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that might damage the finish.
Q: Are open shelves or closed cabinets better for coats?
A: Closed cabinets keep coats out of sight, which looks cleaner. Open shelves make grabbing the right coat faster, but can look messy if overloaded.
Q: What is the difference between MDF and Plywood?
A: Plywood is made of layered wood sheets and is generally stronger and more water-resistant. MDF is made of wood fibers pressed together; it is cheaper but weaker when wet.
Q: How high should coat hooks be mounted?
A: For adults, hooks should be about 65 to 70 inches from the floor. For a family, consider mounting two sets of hooks at different heights.
Q: Does entryway storage help with resale value?
A: While the storage unit itself is personal property, a well-organized, functional entryway always makes a good first impression on potential buyers.
