Hanger is an essential element of any hallway. This is what we see when we enter any home. To date, there is a huge variety of models of such furniture, but floor racks for clothes are considered the most popular.
Existing varieties
Depending on the design features and on the purpose, there are three types of such clothing storage systems:
- costume;
- dressing room;
- outdoor clothes rack (fits perfectly in the hallway).
Suit options are separate devices designed to store a business wardrobe. Such models usually consist of a rod or crossbar for trousers, hangers for jackets and shirts, and a separate tier on which ties are hung. More modern outdoor clothes racks are equipped with additional shelves and movable or stationary mirrors.
Wardrobe models are impressive in size. The main purpose of this furnitureconsists in storing dresses and other clothes on hangers. As a rule, such models are equipped with a high-positioned bar to accommodate wardrobe items. A standard wardrobe hanger-rack for clothes (floor) has two support legs with a crossbar in the middle. Multifunctional models have additional movable bars and crossbars.
Variants used for hallways are made in the form of a high rack, in the upper part of which there are special hooks. The stability of this design is ensured by the presence of a small rounded base with several legs.
Materials from which such furniture is made
Modern floor standing clothes racks are made of wood or metal. In some models, manufacturers manage to successfully combine parts that have different origins and textures. For their decoration, natural materials are used (animal horns or different types of wood), plastic, painted or chrome-plated metal.
Required tools and materials
If desired, such furniture can be made independently. To do this, you need to stock up in advance with a hacksaw, drills, drill, sandpaper, chisel, varnish and stain. From the materials we need:
- bars;
- wood glue;
- boards;
- self-tapping screws.
Floor standing clothes rack: do-it-yourself furniture making
Boards and bars should bedried as much as possible. Racks for clothes floor, made of low-quality raw materials, will quickly fail. Insufficiently dried wood will begin to release moisture, and the glue that holds the individual structural elements together will simply come off. The best material for making a hanger-rack is pine. This wood does not require complex processing and has a relatively low weight.
The higher the finished product, the wider its legs should be. It is desirable that the product has at least three supports. Having decided on the model of the future hanger, it is necessary to draw its diagram, make preliminary calculations, measure the height and width of the structure. Having completed the description of the dimensions of all parts, you can get to work.
The process of making a floor hanger for men's suits consists of several stages:
- cutting blanks according to a previously developed project;
- careful processing and polishing of wooden elements;
- drilling mounting holes in pre-designated locations;
- assembly structure.
- finishing;
- screwing the roller wheels or sticking the rubber pads.
The final stage of work should be to give the finished product an aesthetic appearance. To do this, it is treated with stain and opened with varnish. So that drops of stain do not accidentally stain the floor, you need to do this on a special substrate. The varnish is applied only after the stain has completely dried. Recommended to work withoutdoors or in a well-ventilated room.
Floor racks for clothes for shops
Such hangers are considered to be universal commercial equipment that allows you to compactly place and sort the offered goods. They are easy to disassemble, do not take up much space and move around the trading floor without any problems. The use of floor structures greatly facilitates the process of familiarizing potential buyers with the assortment presented in the store. Trading racks-hangers can be one-, two- and three-tiered. Specially for the placement of fur and leather products, reinforced models are produced that can withstand the weight of such clothing.
Most manufacturers produce two types of such equipment - stationary and mobile. Stationary structures are installed directly on the retail space and do not move around the hall. Mobile racks are equipped with special wheels, so they can be easily moved from place to place. Almost all models have the ability to adjust the height of the structure, which greatly facilitates the process of changing the assortment.
