Do you want to create an organized storage area in your entry or garage with a modern industrial look? You can get a DIY kit with mudroom lockers, a bench and shoe storage cubbies that looks cool and can also save you money…
Note: Rather than paying a contractor to build a custom install, why not buy a kit that you can assemble yourself? Plus, these heavy-duty garage cabinets hold up well to frequent use and cost less than versions designed for home use.
Get Several Storage Options in this Convenient Mudroom Set:
I like this 7-piece set because you get a variety of flexible storage options. Therefore, you can organize items how you like, for multiple people and in different ways.
Furthermore, the separate compartments and interior shelves help you keep your gear organized and easy to find. (Plus, closing doors and tubs keep any messes discreetly hidden!)
1. Tall Lockers Take Advantage of Wall Space:
For example, the two tall lockers allow you to stow lots of things neatly behind closed doors.
Their tall vertical shape offers more storage area without taking up lots of floor space, plus they each include 5 shelves.
2. Cubbies Offer Easy Pull-Out Areas Underneath Seat:
Second, the 4 lower cubbies feature pull-out plastic tubs that work perfectly for shoes. I actually like this design better than regular cubbies because you can easily wash the tubs if needed.
That said, if you don’t like the look of the plastic tubs, you can simply remove them. You can leave the area open or use other baskets or boxes instead.
3. Bench Provides Seating, Plus Gives Mudroom a Finished Look:
Third, this package includes a solid wood bench that sits on top of the lower cubby shelves. In addition to providing ample seating, the natural wood has a really nice finished look to it. Not to mention, it’s extremely durable.
The bench actually measures 5 feet in length, so it gives you plenty of space to sit down to tie shoes. Alternatively, guests can set their bags there when they come in the house.
4. Wall Cabinets Add More “Out-of-the-Way” Storage:
Fourth, the upper wall cabinets provide even more enclosed storage without encroaching on the seating area.
Why not take advantage of higher wall space that you might otherwise not use, right?
Each upper cabinet (package includes 2) comes with 1 adjustable shelf and has a weight capacity of 75 lbs.
Plus, they allow space to hang a coat rack on the wall if you like. This gives you an “Easy-to-grab” spot to hang jackets, backpacks, umbrellas, hats, bags and more.

Overall, I think that this mudroom system offers space-efficient design. Plus, you get that modern, contemporary IKEA look with a more durable frame and materials.
The cabinets come with attachable legs that elevate the unit off the ground. However, if you prefer a more built-in look, you may decide not to use them.
By the way, this 7-piece package allows you to arrange the pieces in different ways. For example, if you want to fit your mudroom in a corner and position the 2 tall lockers side-by-side, you can.
