Style When You Step Through the Door

Entryways are the workhorses in our homes, collecting shoes, bags, coats and other items each time we come in the door. But just because that space works hard, doesn’t mean it can’t look good, too. Consumers appreciate options that are both functional and beautiful, giving them the best of both worlds. 

Wall-mounted coat racks save space and keep coats and bags organized. Umbra Sticks Wall Hooks add a modern touch to the entryway with a slim profile and five pull-down hooks that hide away when not in use. Shoes stayed corralled in the sleek West Elm Industrial Shoe Rack

Even though they get touched every day, door knobs are often overlooked and can be an easy way to add style to an entryway space. The Schlage Connect Smart Deadbolt comes in a contemporary design and connects with a smartphone to lock and unlock from anywhere. 

Beautiful and bold, the Globe Electric Sansa 5-Light Chandelier makes a statement and lights up the space. 

When you merchandise these types of items together, customers can get a feel for what their spaces could look like and see products they might be missing that would complete their entryways.
