Find the right wardrobe for you

Jackets, boots, gloves, scarves and bags - they all want the same thing: a place in your entrance. The wardrobes in our range are as varied as your needs. You can find a selection of typical models and their features here.

In addition to the leaves outside, heavy winter coats, gloves and beanies are currently creeping into my hallway. This puts a lot of strain on my wardrobe. It has to accommodate everything and look good at the same time. And it does both. Choose your model carefully so that it meets your requirements. I'll briefly introduce you to the different wardrobe types.

Single wall hooks

Is your entrance area tiny? Then wall-mounted coat rack solutions that leave the floor free are ideal. Wall hooks are the simplest option. Whether round, hinged, single or combined - they are decorative. Their only drawback: they sometimes lack capacity, which is why a soloist can often only carry one jacket.

Wall-mounted wardrobes

This variant is spacious and often equipped with variable elements such as S-hooks. They can be used not only for jackets, but also for hats and scarves. Some variants have a storage surface that resembles a shelf, while others combine a mirror and kill two birds with one stone.

Clothes racks and rods

Is your entrance area large? Then go for clothes racks. They are mobile companions and can hold several jackets. Some are a mirror and coat rack in one. The big advantage of coat racks is that you don't have to drill a single hole in the wall and they can be quickly repositioned.

Want a boutique flair in your hallway? Then choose clothes rail-like models that look particularly elegant and tidy because they give you the option of hanging jackets with hangers. You can mount some of them on the wall and lean others against it.

Free-hanging coat hangers

Hanging wardrobes require no floor space and give you room to manoeuvre. Once installed, most of them can be adjusted in height so that your jackets hang within easy reach. Unlike a standing coat rack, they also don't fall over, but have a similar capacity of up to twenty kilograms.

Seating benches

Are you comfortable? There are also wardrobes that double as a bench and make it easier for you to put on your shoes. Additional compartments under the seat serve as a replacement for the shoe rack. There are models that even integrate an umbrella stand. Conclusion: Wardrobes for sitting are not exactly small, but they make optimum use of the available space.
