Coat racks

A coat rack works best where you naturally come and go. Hallways, porches and boot rooms are ideal for coats, bags and scarves, while utility rooms keep outerwear organised and close to hand. A wall-mounted coat rack can also be useful in kitchens or laundry spaces, offering a practical place to hang linens or utensils, as shown in some of our styling. Pair with hallway furniture or home storage to keep the space feeling calm.

Most coat racks are best mounted at a height that makes hooks easy to reach without coats brushing the floor. As a guide, position a wall-mounted coat rack so the hooks sit around 150 to 160cm from the floor, adjusting for your household and the length of the items you hang. If you are creating a family-friendly space, consider mounting lower hooks or adding a second rack beneath for children.

A coat rack with a shelf adds an extra layer of storage, combining hanging space with a surface for everyday essentials. The hooks keep coats and bags organised, while the shelf is useful for hats, gloves and smaller items, or even compact baskets to keep clutter out of sight. It is a practical choice for narrower hallways and busy entryways where making the most of vertical space matters.

A wooden coat rack brings warmth and character to an entranceway, with natural grain that softens the look of functional storage. An oak coat rack is especially valued for its strength and durability, making it well-suited to daily use in hallways and utility rooms. Both materials age beautifully over time, developing character while keeping the space feeling considered rather than purely practical.
