Wall-mounted coat rack: space-saving and always stylish

A wall-mounted coat rack is the smartest solution for an organized hallway. It doesn't take up floor space, looks neat, and keeps coats, bags, and scarves always within reach. At Yessential, you'll find wall-mounted coat racks in modern designs and various finishes, so you'll always find one that matches your interior.

All models are made from durable, stainless materials and come with mounting hardware. This allows you to hang your new coat rack quickly and easily, without any hassle.

Why a wall-mounted coat rack is better than a freestanding coat rack

A freestanding coat rack has its charm, but in a narrow hallway or small entrance, it quickly becomes an obstruction. It gets in the way, easily topples over, and takes up valuable floor space. A wall-mounted coat rack solves all these problems at once.

Because it's mounted on the wall, it's always stable and doesn't take up an inch of floor space. Moreover, a wall-mounted coat rack looks neater and more thoughtful than a loose freestanding one. Especially in combination with a matching mirror or wall lamp, you can make your hallway a showpiece of your home.

What styles are available at Yessential?

At Yessential, you'll find wall-mounted coat racks in various styles and finishes, so there's something for every interior taste:

Matte black: Modern, timeless, and versatile. Matte black combines with almost any interior and immediately gives the hallway a contemporary look.

Stainless steel: Sleek, strong, and easy to maintain. Ideal for a modern or industrial interior.

Gold: Warm and luxurious. Gold coat racks form a beautiful combination with natural tones, marble look, or dark wall paintings.

Gunmetal: A dark, matte grey tone with character. Gunmetal fits perfectly in an urban or Scandinavian interior.

What should you consider when buying a wall-mounted coat rack?

Not every wall-mounted coat rack suits every situation. When making your choice, pay attention to the following points:

Number of hooks: How many people live in your house? A coat rack with two or three hooks is fine for a single-person household, but for a family, you'd prefer five or more hooks.

Load capacity: Heavy winter coats weigh more than you think. Choose a coat rack with solid mounting and sturdy hooks that can handle heavy clothing.

Material and finish: Choose a finish that matches other elements in your hallway, such as the color of your door fittings, your skirting boards, or your light switch. This creates a cohesive whole.

Mounting method: Check if the wall is suitable for wall mounting. For a plasterboard wall, you need special plaster anchors. For a concrete or brick wall, use ordinary rawlplugs and screws.

Mounting a wall-mounted coat rack: how to do it

Hanging a coat rack is easier than you think. With a drill, a spirit level, and the included mounting hardware, you'll be done within fifteen minutes:

Step 1: Choose the right height. The ideal mounting height for a coat rack is between 150 and 170 cm above the floor. This way, coats don't hang on the floor, and the hooks are comfortably accessible for everyone.

Step 2: Mark the drill holes. Use a spirit level to mark the mounting points straight. A crooked coat rack is immediately noticeable, so take your time with this.

Step 3: Drill the holes and insert the rawlplugs. Use a drill bit that matches the rawlplug size from the mounting kit. Firmly tap the rawlplugs into the wall.

Step 4: Attach the coat rack. Screw the coat rack firmly to the rawlplugs and check if it is secure. Hang a heavy coat on it as a test before putting it into full use.

Frequently asked questions about wall-mounted coat racks

At what height should I hang a wall-mounted coat rack?

The ideal height for a wall-mounted coat rack is between 150 and 170 cm above the floor. This way, coats don't hang on the floor, and the hooks are comfortably accessible for all family members. Do you also have young children? Consider a second row of hooks at approximately 100 cm height.

Can I also mount a coat rack on a plasterboard wall?

Yes, but then use special plaster anchors instead of ordinary rawlplugs. Plaster anchors distribute the weight over a larger area and ensure a firm attachment, even without an underlying wall stud. Pay attention to the maximum load capacity of the anchors you choose.

How many hooks do I need for my coat rack?

Count on at least one hook per person in the household, plus one or two extra for visitors. For a family of four, a coat rack with five or six hooks is ideal. This way, there's always room for an extra coat or bag.

Which finish best suits my interior?

Match the finish to other metal-colored elements in your hallway, such as door fittings, light switches, or radiators. Matte black suits a modern or industrial interior, gold for a warm or luxurious style, and stainless steel for a sleek, minimalist decor.
