Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Checkroom shelves? Really?” But trust me, they’re more than just a place to store your coat and backpack. They can actually make a big difference in the overall look and feel of your entryway.

In this video, I’m going to share some tips on how to choose the right checkroom shelves for your space, as well as how to style them so that they look their best. I’ll also be showing you some of my favorite checkroom shelf designs, so that you can get some inspiration for your own home.

So, whether you’re looking to update your existing checkroom shelves or you’re starting from scratch, this video is for you. Let’s get started!

These shelves are typically made of wood or metal and are permanently attached to the wall. They are a good option for storing items that you use frequently, such as coats, hats, and scarves.

To install non-removable shelves, you will need to drill holes in the wall and then screw the shelves into place. Be sure to use the correct type of screws for the material of your wall.

• Durable: Non-removable shelves are very durable and can hold a lot of weight.
• Easy to install: They are relatively easy to install, even for beginners.
• Versatile: They can be used to store a variety of items.

• Permanent: Once they are installed, they cannot be easily removed.
• Limited adjustability: The height of the shelves cannot be adjusted.

These shelves are typically made of plastic or wire and can be easily removed from the wall. They are a good option for storing items that you do not use frequently, such as seasonal clothing or holiday decorations.

To install removable shelves, you will need to attach brackets to the wall and then hang the shelves on the brackets. The brackets can be screwed into the wall or attached using adhesive strips.

• Removable: They can be easily removed from the wall when not needed.
• Adjustable: The height of the shelves can be adjusted.
• Lightweight: They are lightweight and easy to move.

• Not as durable: Removable shelves are not as durable as non-removable shelves and may not be able to hold as much weight.
• More difficult to install: They can be more difficult to install than non-removable shelves.

Wood is a classic material for checkroom shelves. It is durable, attractive, and can be stained or painted to match your decor. However, wood can be expensive and may not be the best choice for humid environments.

Metal is another popular material for checkroom shelves. It is strong, durable, and easy to clean. However, metal can be cold to the touch and may not be as attractive as wood.

Plastic is a less expensive option for checkroom shelves. It is lightweight, easy to clean, and comes in a variety of colors. However, plastic is not as durable as wood or metal and may not be as attractive.

Wire is a good option for checkroom shelves if you want to maximize air circulation. It is also relatively inexpensive. However, wire shelves can be difficult to keep clean and may not be as strong as other materials.

The size and shape of your checkroom shelves will depend on the size of your checkroom and the items you want to store. If you have a small checkroom, you may want to choose shelves that are narrow and deep. If you have a large checkroom, you may want to choose shelves that are wide and shallow.

You may also want to consider the shape of your shelves. Rectangular shelves are the most common, but you can also find shelves that are square, circular, or even triangular.

There are a number of accessories that you can use to customize your checkroom shelves. These include:

• Hooks: Hooks can be used to hang coats, hats, and scarves.
• Baskets: Baskets can be used to store shoes, gloves, and other small items.
