How to Assemble Over the Door Shoe Rack

Materials Needed:

  • -1 piece of wood measuring 3/4″ x 24″ x 36″
  • -1 timber piece measuring 3/4″ x 24″ x 18″
  • -Paint or Stain
  • -Ruler or Tape Measure
  • -Circular Saw or Jigsaw
  • -High-Grit Sandpaper
  • -Paint Brush or Foam Brush
  • -Staple Gun and Staples
  • -Screws (1 1/4″)
  • -Hinges (2)

Instructions:

  1. Decide how long you want your shoe rack to be. If you want it to hold as many shoes as possible, we recommend making it at least 36″ long. Then, using a ruler or tape measure, mark and cut your pieces of wood to the desired length.
  2. Paint or stain your pieces of wood however you like. We recommend using high-grit sandpaper to smooth rough edges before you start painting or staining. Let the paint or stain dry completely before moving on to the next step.
  3. Measure and mark the placement of the hinges on one end of your shorter piece of wood. Then, attach the hinges to the wood using a drill or screwdriver.
  4. Place the shorter piece of wood on top of the longer part of the wood, aligning the edges. Then, using a drill or screwdriver, attach the two pieces of wood with screws.
  5. Hang your shoe rack on any door in your home and start filling it up! We recommend starting with the heaviest shoes and working your way down to the lighter ones.

There you have it! You can use your over-the-door shoe rack to store as many pairs of shoes as you want. If you wish, add some hooks to the bottom of your frame so you can hang jackets or scarves.

How to Build an Over-the-Door Shoe Rack

If you’re looking for a way to organize your shoes and keep them out of the way, an over-the-door shoe rack is a great option. You can find these racks at most home stores, which are relatively easy to install. In this article, we’ll show you how to build an over-the-door shoe rack that can hold as many pairs of shoes as you can fit into it.

First, you’ll need to gather some supplies. You’ll need a drill, screwdriver, measuring tape, level, and screws. You’ll also need a wood piece at least 24 inches wide and 72 inches long. This will be the base of your rack.

Next, use your measuring tape to find the centre of your door. Once you’ve seen it, mark it with a pencil. Then, use your level to ensure the centre line is level.

Now, it’s time to start drilling holes. Start by drilling a hole in the centre of your marked line. Then, drill two more holes about six inches from each other on either side of the centre hole. These will be the holes that you’ll use to screw the rack into place.

Once you’ve drilled all of your holes, it’s time to start assembling the rack. Take your piece of wood and place it over the top of the door, lining up the holes you just drilled. Then, use your screws to secure the wood to the door.

Now, you can start adding shelves to your rack. To do this, measure the width of your shoes and cut pieces of wood that are that size. Then, screw the wooden shelves on the support beams you’ve just installed.

That’s it! You now have a functional over-the-door shoe rack that can hold as many pairs of shoes as you need. You can use this rack to store all of your shoes, or you can use it to organize them by type. Either way, you’ll be able to keep your shoes off the floor and out of the way.

How to Choose the Right Size Over the Door Shoe Rack

Choosing the right size over the door shoe rack can be tricky. When selecting a shoe rack, you want to ensure that you get one that will be big enough to hold all your shoes. But you also don’t want to go too big, because then you’ll have to buy more shoes to fill it up.

The best way to choose the right size rack is to measure the width of your shoes. If you can fit your shoes side by side, you know that the rack will be large enough. You’ll need a more enormous rack if you have to move your boots around to fit them.

You can also consider the length of your shoes. Absolutely nothing is worse than having a shoe rack that’s too short. If you have to reach across the rack to grab your boots, you’ll trip over them. That’s why it’s essential to ensure that your rack is long enough to accommodate your needs.
