Garment Racks Blog

Sometimes it’s crazy to imagine how many ways there are to use a garment rack. But hang in there! Here’s a new one!

There are collapsible garment racks that would be great for bring back and forth from your booths. This first option comes in a variety of sizes and is constructed of commercial grade materials. It breaks down for easy storage and travel and also has wheels for convenience.

The second option for you is the Fol-D-Rak, a portable garment rack. It’s great because it is lightweight, only 6 pounds, and it holds up to 150 pounds or 40-60 garments! The rack folds up to a slim 4” wide so it’s easy to store and easy to travel with.

The main difference between these two items is the size, weight and wheels.

Both of these options will work great at the flea market coming up!

Thanks for the question and we’ll be answering more questions next week for Hangin’ Out.

Now that its 2010, let us take closer look at a very convenient and helpful garment rack. This covered garment rack is ideal for storing and organizing your out of season clothing. There are many desirable features about this rack, the most important being the canvas covering. The cover offers the ultimate protection from dust, bugs and odor. The zipper allows easy access and the rolling casters enable you to put it wherever is best for you. Another fun feature is the side slots inside the cover for cedar boards. The cedar boards will keep your clothes smelling refreshed while being stored for any period of time. Fifty pounds is the maximum weight the rack can hold, so it’s not really for heavy storage or commercial use.

Making your own garment rack cover is also an option. With a sewing machine and supplies you can make a custom cover for a garment rack you already have around the house. You can easily close the garment rack with fabric ties instead of a zipper. The cover you make can be washable, removable and have your personal touch.

Can you imagine having an organized laundry room? A little scary to picture, I know, but it is very possible. There are many garment racks available to help you get your laundry room under control!

Garment racks are great for hanging your clothes to dry. Before I got one, it wouldn’t be uncommon to find clothes hanging on the shower rod, doorways and on chairs. I know I’m not the only one who has ever draped a pair of wet pants over the dryer in order to dry. The great thing about a garment rack is that all of the laundry clutter is eliminated.

Garment Racks are good in the office for one reason – coats. If there are many people working in an office, a garment rack is the perfect solution for all those jackets and coats.

Here is an example of the perfect garment rack to put in an office building for keeping coats and jackets organized. There is plenty of space for many coats and they all get a hanger, as opposed to the hook style of a coat tree.

This particular one has a nice top shelf to set lunch boxes, umbrellas and hats. It holds 4-6 hangers per foot so there will be plenty of storage space for coats. This option is also nice for saving space because it will fit conveniently in any corner and doesn’t take up too much space.

A garment rack like this one is also good for large families. This rack would be great to put in the garage or in an area where your family can put their coats on before heading out.

              I was in my apartment the other day and I was thinking about how garment racks just may not be practical for small apartments like mine.  There are more space-saving options for garment racks, so you can still use the practicality and functionality of the concept and use less space.

The frequent traveler should never leave the house without a 2 in 1 garment and luggage rack. With the perfect amount of storage and space, you’ll be able to keep your clothes organized and wrinkle free during your trip.

Another great purpose for a luggage rack/ garment rack is for packing assistance. You can get your hanging items together and pack without the tension of packing on the floor.

This is another great item to have in your guest bedroom at home. This leaves a place for guests to set their luggage while still having a place to hang and organize their clothing while they stay.

When you think of garment racks, you most likely think of two things – shopping or laundry. However, garment racks can be lifesavers outside of shopping and laundry and it’s the people who already use them that have figured this out!
