4. They allow you to dry and ventilate your outerwear with high quality.

It should be remembered that some wall models will require dismantling if you decide to rearrange, and structures made of plastic may not cope with heavy fur coats. Wall hangers in the hallway, consisting of magnetic hooks, require additional installation of special metal plates.

The best option is a hanger built into the wardrobe, which has sliding mirrored doors. In such models, clothes are hung on hooks or special rods that save space. The following are most often used as additional accessories:

• Shelves. Used to store bags, umbrellas, hats and other things. You can find designs with one or more shelves that are located above the hooks. They can be made from the same material as the hanger, or from any other. The combination of a forged hanger and a wooden shelf looks original.
