A storage bench with a shoe rack is a handy, organizational piece of furniture that works well in an open-faced or closed closet. Compact shoe racks fit nicely at the bottom of small closets to store shoes, so they don’t lay on top of each other. Short storage benches also allow enough room for coats and jackets to hang down without touching the shoes.
Taller shoe racks can work well in closet spaces too, especially open-faced closets. Consider cleaning out your entryway closet and removing the doors. Then, install a beautiful new organizational shoe rack with a coat rack wall mounted above it. This replaces your closed-off space with a visually organized, open area that allows for easy access to the shoe rack. The storage bench is recessed into the wall where the closet used to be, moving it out of the way and creating more room to move around in your entryway.
