Bram Nordic Metal Wall Coat Rack

The VoriHaus Bram Nordic Metal Wall Coat Rack takes the entrance problem off the floor entirely. A hallstand needs a square foot of floor that a narrow hall does not have; a row of hooks on the wall needs none, and holds the same coats, bags and hats without anything to walk around in the dark.

It is a single length of metal bent into a continuous wave form, where each peak forms a hook — the fewest lines a rack can be made from, which is what lets it sit in a finished hallway without competing with what is already there. Three hooks or five are offered: 11.4 inches wide for the three, 19.3 for the five, and both a shallow 3 inches tall, so it can be sized to a single coat by a bedroom door or to a family's worth by the front one. The finish is black, which disappears against a wall rather than announcing itself — the right note for something that lives by the front door.

It suits an entrance hall, a bedroom, the back of a door or a spot beside a wardrobe. No weight limit is published for this piece and fixings are not itemised, so VoriHaus recommends fixing into a stud or using wall anchors rated well above the load you intend to hang, spreading coats across the hooks rather than loading one, and keeping it to coats, scarves and bags rather than anything heavy. Wipe with a soft dry cloth.
