6 Entryway Shoe Storage Ideas
The entryway is often used for storage, where you leave your jacket and shoes upon entering or exiting your house. Due to its limited space, it’s important to maximize its potential. Shoes, in particular, can take up a significant amount of room and if not stored properly, can create a cluttered appearance.
To help you optimize your space, here are some shoe storage ideas for your entryway.
Here’s an entryway with a large window and ample space for jackets and shirts. It’s a spacious walk-in closet-like area. Despite being filled with items, it has an airy appearance.
The space below the window would have been wasted if not transformed into a clever shoe storage area. It has two levels and a middle separator, ideal for organizing and storing shoes.
If you’re passionate about shoes and have many pairs or a large family, consider investing in a spacious shoe storage area with ample shelves. A built-in storage space that covers a significant portion of the wall is ideal for both your shoes and your guests’.
If you want enough space for the shoes you use the most, you could opt for a minimalist décor with a coat rack and a small built-in shoe storage space with a bench. In this case, one step of the staircase extends and forms the bench and the shoe storage space.
If you don’t want all your shoes to be exposed, you can hide them in a closet. Create a large storage unit with compartments that can accommodate one pair of shoes each and hide them behind two closet doors. The compartments can have different shapes and sizes for different types of shoes.
Another practical idea for small entryway spaces is to use shoe angles placed on an angle. To save space, consider having shelves that automatically retract when not in use. This way, they take up minimal space.
If you prefer a traditional method, you could place a mat or designate a space near the entrance door where shoes should be stored. This simple solution requires little effort, time, or money. (Picture sources: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.)
