    Wall Mounted Clothing Racks

  1. DIY Garment Rack

  2. DIY Garment Rack

    This wall-mounted clothing rack features pipe that was painted black while the fittings were left in their original, silver finish to create a unique look for this showroom. Todd built this clothing rack because he wanted something unique, stylish, and modern. "The design of the rack had to fall in line with our design philosophy which is consistency and purpose" said Todd. Read more about the men's clothing rack project here.

  3. T-shirt & Jean Display

  9. Wall Mounted Clothing Rack with Shelving

  10. Again, this rack is attached to the wall and ground just as the previous example. However, rather than simply resting the shelves across an intersection made in the rack, this design makes us of the Rail Support fitting to attach the shelving and create a "floating" appearance. Finally, single wall racks are created on both sides using a Flange fitting, length of pipe, and a Malleable Plug to cap off the pipe.

  11. Wall Mounted Clothing Rack & Display

It's quite an elaborate design that incorporates bars for hanging clothing and integrated shelving. The rack is attached to the wall using the Flange fitting and shelves are added by placing boards across intersections made possible using the Single Socket Tee fitting.

    Here's what Kristen from Pure Barre had to say of the project:

    "I had seen projects on your website and heard great things from other Pure Barre studio owners across the country. I had limited wall space and wanted to utilize my space to the best of my ability to showcase items from our retail boutique. Acton was awesome helping to design the look and layout, including several revisions going back and forth on ideas. Customer service, help in design, and the speedy process from design to shipping was incredibly beneficial. I truly appreciate your help and support!"

  15. Wall Mounted Clothing & Shoe Racks

  16. A few different designs here that all feature the pipe painted black and the fittings left in their original, silver finish to create a unique look. It pairs wells with the pallet wall.

I was co-owner of Imagination Athletics previously, another company that was using these parts. My husband built the displays for that company and continues to build all of our displays and fixtures for Shirt Traveler using the Kee Lites. HE LOVES THEM.

The crew there was great to work with, and our initial apparel rack systems turned out so well that we went back for more! We wanted to expand the apparel sections in our store, so we customized the apparel displays to attach to the window frame of the shop - turned out great! We added shelving to the top of the floor fixtures, and it gave our retail space that added pop! Another great project completed with the help from the guys at Simplified Building. Thanks guys!!!"
