Are you looking for an easy entryway organizing solution that contains cabinets, drawers and coat hooks? The Farmington Mudroom Storage Cabinet offers the ideal hack for do-it-yourselfers who don’t want to pay for a custom-built mudroom.
Note: I really like these single-wide mudroom cubbies because you can stack them side by side. Therefore, you can create an entryway storage area as large as you like – without having to commit to buying a giant unit.
Smaller, Flat-Sided Cabinets Offer a Big Design Advantage:
They also work better for small spaces, such as a laundry room, hallway or kids room. With their 6-foot height, they make efficient use of vertical space – without taking up much floor.
Other locker-style storage cabinets have molding that sticks out on the sides. As a result, you can’t easily place them next to each other without having a gap in between.
However, these Farmington cabinets feature a flat trim on the sides. So, they look finished when viewed from any angle, or they can fit snugly against each other without any visible gaps.
On top of that, each mudroom kit comes with a wall anchor. Therefore, you can secure them in place to the underlying wall, and they won’t move around.
Easy to Assemble & Cheap to Buy, These Mudroom Cabinets have a Really Cool Rustic Farmhouse Look
Compared to a built-in mudroom closet, these portable units are really affordable (they cost under $150 each). Although you need to put them together yourself, this task is simple, plus you save on shipping (free).
In fact, you can complete this DIY entryway wall storage project in an afternoon (even with multiple units). The manufacturer recommends allowing 1 1/2 hours assembly time per cabinet.
The kit contains all the necessary supplies and hardware to complete assembly. However, you will need a hammer, flat head screwdriver and Phillips head screwdriver. The convenient assembly guide shows you exactly how to build it yourself.
Although these mini mudrooms don’t have as much concealed storage as Ikea Cabinets, they provide coat hooks and a storage bench instead. (Not to mention, they cost less.)
Mudroom-Style Lockers are Great Entryway Organizers:
The separate cabinet, drawer and coat rack compartment turn this unit into a great organizer. Plus, it can give your entryway an easy-going, relaxed feel while not looking like a mess.
Stow shoes, purses, phones and other gadgets out of sight and have jackets, hats and backpacks easily accessible at the same. Not to mention, you can keep everything off of the floor. =)
In addition, the open-style design allows to to store just as much stuff while not making your foyer look smaller. Keep this in mind if you have a smaller-sized entryway.

Note: By the way, if you prefer a mudroom cabinet with a mirror, Home Depot sells the similar style Martin Black Hall Tree.
You give up the upper storage area, but you may not need it anyways. You still get cook hooks, bench seat and lower cabinet (instead of a pull-out drawer).
