Until recently, we could not even think that it was necessary to buy a separate piece of furniture for shoes. In Soviet times, usually one shelf in the hallway was enough to accommodate the shoes of the whole family. Dad, mom, son and daughter in everyday life used a maximum of one or two pairs of seasonal shoes. For example, in some sneakers it was possible to attend college, go to dances or put them on a date.

Times have changed. Shoes are no longer in short supply. Now the average Russian has ten pairs for different occasions. The problem arises: "How and where to store them?" Shoes, boots, sneakers, flip flops, sneakers, boots persistently "require" a separate and, preferably, closed storage space.

We invite our customers to familiarize themselves with the catalog of furniture for storing shoes, where more than two hundred product names are presented. You can choose an inexpensive classic shoe rack or buy a sectional cabinet for a large number of shoes (20 pairs or more).

The popularity of shoe racks

Online store site. offers for sale shoe storage systems of various designs. The most popular are:

  • Shoe racks with folding shelves. In height and width, they are - low and wide, narrow and high. Their distinctive feature is that if you pull the handle on the door, it will turn on the hinges, opening access to the contents of the box.
  • Shoe racks with hinged doors are a classic shoe cabinet designed for a large number of pairs.
  • Shoe racks with sliding doors. These models are ideal for narrow hallways. Such furniture is sometimes called a chest of drawers.

We remind you: by phone or on-line, the customer can get a qualified free consultation of our managers.

Almost all modern styles of room decoration strive for minimalism and hiding from the eyes of things that are not part of the interior. As a confirmation of this thesis, one can cite wardrobes, which reliably hide clothes and other home textiles behind their doors.

With regard to shoes, this function is performed by allowing the compact arrangement of the shoes available in the house. In addition, thanks to the efforts of the designers, this element can easily become a decoration for your hallway.

The answer to this question suggests itself: a narrow shoe rack is needed when no other shoe furniture will simply fit into the hallway. Unfortunately, when building apartment buildings, developers do not always leave enough space for the hallway. As a result, it is quite difficult for a family of several people to place their seasonal shoes in the hallway, let alone store those that are not currently in use.

The only way out of this situation is to purchase a narrow, but high, and therefore roomy shoe rack. With a width of about half a meter, it will perfectly fit behind the door, so it can be installed even in the corridor, if there is basically no hallway in the room.

Most often, in order to achieve the minimum width, manufacturers have resorted to vertical placement of shoes. This allows you to put shoes in a narrow cabinet that are not at all small.

Even if you are limited in the choice of shoe racks in width, do not despair: the assortment of narrow shoe racks is large enough, so it will not be difficult to choose a model that is suitable in appearance to the general decor of the hallway.

Types of products

There are several parameters for choosing shoe racks: width, shape, configuration, material of manufacture and finishing.

By width

Standard cabinets and shoe racks are usually 60-80 cm wide. However, you can find wider options (100-120 cm). Such models are roomy, allow you to store any footwear (high and low) and not deform it. However, you can only place a wide shoe rack in a spacious hallway.

Narrow shoe racks have been developed especially for small spaces. Their width can be only 13-18 cm. You can even put such a cabinet or shelf in the corridor or behind a drop-down door.

Unfortunately, winter shoes cannot be placed in the narrow model, due to the high tops.

A compromise option would be narrow shoe racks with a width of 40-50 cm. Shoes in them are located more freely, which means it dries better.

Of course, there are also exclusive models of narrow, but high shoe racks in the hallway with a depth of 20, or even up to 15 cm, for example, but most often they are made to order.

By form

In a broad sense, all shoe racks can be divided into two large groups: open and closed. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

  • So, on open shelves, shoes dry out more easily, the material from which they are made "breathes". However, it is quite difficult to avoid dust by having an open shoe rack in the hallway. It is undesirable to purchase this kind of model for those who have pets who love to drag away and pretty much chew on an expensive shoe.
  • Shoes placed behind the doors are not visible to prying eyes, which means that the aesthetic impression of the interior of the hallway will not be disturbed. But storing dirty shoes in closets is unhygienic, and the shoe rack itself will quickly lose its original appearance. Therefore, over and over again, the shoes should be wiped before putting them in the closet.

Here are the most common shoe racks:

  • Bohn's shoe cabinet. Refers to wide and roomy shoe racks. It is a showcase with doors. The shoe compartments are spacious, which allows you to store here not only shoes, but also boots. Sometimes mesh shelves are installed in such cabinets, which contributes to even better ventilation;
  • Slim cabinets. These are narrow shoe racks, most suitable for small apartments. Their secret is that the shoes are placed in vertical cells, standing not on the sole, but on the toe. The doors do not move to the sides, like in ordinary cabinets, but in a fan. They can open under a straight line, or only at 45 °. There are also options without doors, which, in fact, are narrow slim shoe shelves in the hallway;
  • Shoe cabinet. This is perhaps the easiest way to store your shoes. It is an open shelf that is convenient for keeping casual shoes. This model is frequently modified. The upper surface of a narrow shoe rack turns into a table for various little things or into a seat, leaning on which in the hallway, it is much more convenient to put on shoes;
  • Cupboard cabinet. It is usually small in size and contains only two or three shelves. Sideboards are often sold complete with other pieces of furniture (cabinets, hangers, etc.). Shoes are placed horizontally in them. As a rule, the shelf height is sufficient only for shoes and short boots;
  • Closet. In the hallway, a wardrobe can be used that is designed only for shoes, or also contains outerwear. Of course, such a model will take up a large area, but it will allow you to store all outerwear and shoes in one place.

By configuration

So, according to the configuration, shoe racks are divided into shelves, cabinets and benches.

  • Frequently used shoes are placed on the shelves. This is more convenient than looking into the closet every time.
  • To make shoes more comfortable, such, turning them into benches.
  • It is convenient to keep various shoes for all seasons behind closed doors. Closed tall slim cabinets are great for narrow hallways. Especially when there are many residents in the apartment, and there is not enough space for storing shoes.

By material

Shoe racks are made from all kinds of materials, which allows you to find a suitable model, both for a hallway in a classic style, and for.

Most often used:

  • MDF, chipboard and fiberboard. Inexpensive and lightweight materials;
  • Metal (open narrow forged shoe racks look very stylish in the hallway);
  • ... Natural and durable material, from the entrance makes it clear to guests that the hosts are not deprived of either taste or money. However, it is not always appropriate;
  • Rattan. Shoe racks made of this material fit perfectly into rustic interiors, such as. They will be in their place even when your apartment is furnished in African style;
  • Plastic. A variety of shades will allow you to choose a shoe rack for any color scheme. It takes root well in the high-tech interior;
  • Cloth and oilcloth. They are used, as a rule, in non-standard models made for a specific situation.

  • Olmeko is an improved version of the shoe rack, which includes a number of additional elements. In fact, this is a pedestal, the upper surface of which has been turned into a seat.

The organization of the interior space of the room directly depends on the availability of pieces of furniture. They make it possible to create a kind of harmony.

As for the hallway, here a special role is assigned to the shoe rack, which, as a rule, is a kind of chest of drawers, and sometimes a real work of art.

How to make the right choice?

In most cases, a shoe rack in the hallway is purchased already at the final stage of repair.

Particular attention should be paid to the overall dimensions so that the shoe rack can ideally fit in all respects with respect to the general room.

For a large family, it is better to purchase a narrow cabinet, about the same plan as shown in the photo of the shoe rack in the hallway, for example, for storing seasonal shoes. For more information on hallways, see.

It is better if you purchase a sufficiently spacious wardrobe with additional built-in drawers available. If possible, you can purchase a shoe rack with a seat in the hallway for the opportunity to change shoes without any difficulties.

Configuration features

Depending on the design, such furniture can be subdivided into certain types:

  • open type;
  • closed type;
  • slim;
  • shoe cabinet-combination of shoe box with other different modules;
  • shoe rack-dryer;
  • rack - great for numerous shoes, and it can be both open and closed.

The most common is the open version. The main advantages include: the ventilation system, the absence of a possible unpleasant odor and fungus.

However, in addition to the advantages, there are also certain negative qualities, for example, the accumulation of dirt on the surface of the shoes, since such shoe racks in the hallway are low in structure.

The closed version has the appearance of a cabinet with shelves or a cabinet with doors. This option is preferable for those who live with pets, as this variety can help keep shoes intact and safe from external damage.

Another quite unusual shoe rack option is the slim. This is a kind of tall, narrow and elongated furniture, which is perfect for a small and not very spacious hallway.

The main disadvantages of such structures are instability, in contrast to the wall-mounted shoe rack in the hallway, and the absence of a special compartment for storing shoe care products.

Shoe cabinet materials

To create furniture, first of all, the individual needs of customers are taken into account, as well as the economic component and the duration of operation.

Particularly popular are metal shoe racks in the hallway, which are distinguished by their strength and durability.

There are a huge number of different furniture factories, the most demanded of which is Ikea. The shoe rack in the hallway made by this customer is able to exceed any expectations and satisfy all needs.

Color features

The choice of the stand is carried out taking into account the general style solution and color preferences. So, for example, a wooden box can be easily painted in the required color.

The easiest way to decide on the color is if the walls have a neutral shade, and other pieces of furniture are simply absent.

A good solution would be to use narrow and tall cabinet options.

If the shoe rack has a shade of "oak" or "beech", then it is better to paint the wall in light colors, and buy furniture in shades of "cherry" or "alder".

DIY shoe rack

Self-made furniture always compares favorably with standard interior items. However, it is better to refuse such an option when creating a high-tech, oriental or baroque style. But in country houses they will come in handy more than ever.

The most suitable options are:

  • drawer-rack - have side shelves-crossbars;
  • the pallet is pre-varnished, while the shoes are stored in special slots;
  • organizer - a summer version in the form of so-called pockets.

Whatever the shoe rack, the presence of even the most ordinary one makes it possible to give the room comfort and harmony.
