Professional shoe rack fitting at kids' level - low enough for children to reach and use themselves, building independence and keeping shoes organised.

💡 Pro tip: Make it part of the routine - shoes off, shoes on rack, every time. Consistency at the start builds the habit.

🔧 DIY Tips
Setting up yourself? Here's what works:
🔧 What you'll need
- Low shoe rack
- Level
- Maybe wall fixings for stability
📐 Height guide
- Measure child's reach
- Rack should be at their level
- Open design easier for young children
- Stable so it can't be pulled over
- Near where shoes come off
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Rack too high (won't use it)
- Too complex (doors, drawers)
- Unstable (tips when leaned on)
- Wrong location (not near door)
💡 Pro trick: Put a small mat by the rack - shoes come off, go on rack. Creates a defined "shoe zone" that reinforces the habit.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does height matter for shoe racks?
If children can't reach it, they won't use it. Shoes end up on the floor. A rack at their level means they can manage their own shoes.
What type of shoe rack works best?
Simple, open racks work better than enclosed units for children - they can see shoes and don't have to operate doors. Low and stable so they can't tip it.
Where should kids' shoe rack go?
Near the door where they take shoes off - make it part of the coming-home routine. Shoes go on rack, not on floor.
Can adults use the same rack?
Often families have a low section for kids and higher shelves for adults. Or separate racks entirely. We'll design for your space.
