With a little planning, it is possible to design the perfect piece of bespoke handmade boot room furniture to add a touch of organised luxury to any home.
So – here is my quick guide about ordering a bespoke boot room:
What is boot room?
A bespoke boot room is a custom-designed and built-in storage space for shoes, boots, coats, bags and other outdoor gear. It is typically located near the entrance to the house, in a separate room if you are lucky or in the hallway. It really is a great way to keep your home clean and organized.
Other names include entranceway cabinets, mudroom, laundry room, utility room, cloakroom, vestibule or porch.
There are many benefits to having a bespoke boot room. First, it can help to keep your home clean. When you have a dedicated space for storing outdoor gear, school bags, PE stuff, you can avoid tracking mud and dirt and clutter into the rest of your home. This can help to protect your floors, carpets, and furniture from damage.
Second, a bespoke boot room can really help to organise your home. When you have a place for everything, you can easily find what you need when you need it. This can save you time and frustration, and it can also help to make your home look tidier.
Third, a bespoke boot room can be a great way to add value to your home. If you are planning to sell your home in the future, a well-designed and built boot room can be a selling point for potential buyers.
Things to consider when ordering a bespoke boot room:
When ordering a bespoke boot room, there are a number of factors to consider, including size, style, materials, and storage.
Size
The first step is to determine the size of the boot room you need. This will depend on the space your home has available and on the number of people in your household, as well as the amount of outdoor gear/shoes etc you need to store. Ordering bespoke means you can utilise the space fully and get the most storage possible.
Style
The next step is to choose the style of the boot room. Do you want a traditional boot room with a bench and hooks, or do you want a more modern boot room with built-in storage? There are many different styles to choose from, so you can find one that fits your home’s décor. We can help you with ideas and design it for you in 3D so you can get a feel for what it will look like.
Materials
The materials you choose for your bespoke boot room cabinetry will affect the overall look and feel of the space. You can opt for hand painted, solid timbers like Oak and plywood are all good choices.
Storage
Storage is an important consideration when designing a boot room. You will need to decide how you want to store your shoes, boots, coats, and other items. There are many different storage options available, such as shelves, hooks, drawers, and cabinets. You can also add a hanging rail and a bench for people to sit on while they take off their shoes.
How to Order a Bespoke Boot Room:
We recommend that you research different local companies that offer bespoke boot room design and installation services. Once you have chosen a company (we love to make boot rooms!) meet with them to discuss your specific needs and requirements. It is helpful to be clear about your needs and requirements. Be patient, as bespoke boot rooms can take time to design and build.
A bespoke boot room is a great way to add a touch of luxury to your home. It can be a functional and stylish space that will make your life easier.

Here are some additional tips for ordering a bespoke boot room:
Get everything in writing – this includes the design and the price. Make sure the company has a good reputation. Check online reviews (Google Houzz Facebook etc) and ask for referrals. Be prepared to make a large deposit. This is usually required to secure the order. Be patient. Bespoke boot rooms can take several months to complete.
With a little planning, you can order a bespoke boot room that will be the perfect addition to your home.
