Storage
Shoe Rack
An angled shelf with a front lip, so shoes face out and stay where you put them.
In short
What it is for.
A flat shelf makes you read shoes by their toe. The Shoe Rack tilts the shelf and adds a front stop, so each pair presents its side profile at eye height and nothing slides off when the shelf gets bumped. Three widths, 15 inches deep, 1-1/2 inches thick.
- Angled, with a stopThe tilt shows the shoe; the lip keeps it on the shelf.
- 15-inch depthDeep enough for a men's size 13, shallow enough to stack six racks in an 84-inch tower.
- Same widths as the towers24, 30 and 36 inch, so a shoe bay can be dropped into any bay of the run.

Storage
How this one is specified.
A flat shelf shows you a row of toes, which is why finding one pair means pulling out three. An angled rack presents the whole shoe at a glance and an integral retaining lip at the front stops it sliding off — the same shelf area, a completely different retrieval time.
Depth is 15 inches because a shoe is not deep. Building shoe storage at 24 inches puts a second row behind the first, and the back row becomes shoes you own but never wear. The shallower rack is the one that keeps a collection in circulation. Shelf and hanging depths are set out alongside it in the closet dimensions cheat sheet.
The rack is 1-1/2 inches thick — heavier than a standard shelf, because it is carrying point loads from heels and boots rather than a spread stack — and mounts on the same 32 mm system holes as everything else. Widths of 24, 30 and 36 inches match the towers, so a shoe bay drops into the run without a special panel.
Every size above is built in any of the six finishes; pulls, LED strips and pull-out hardware come from the accessories and hardware catalog.

Questions
About the Shoe Rack.
What are the benefits of a pull-out shoe rack, and is this one?
This one is not a pull-out, and the reason is worth knowing before you shop. A pull-out shoe shelf earns its runners in one situation: a cabinet so deep that the back row is unreachable. At 15 inches deep every pair is already in reach, so the runner would add a moving part, cost and a drawer front for no gain in access. What actually solves the reading problem is the tilt: the shelf is angled and finished with an integral retaining lip, so each pair shows its side profile rather than its toe, and nothing slides off when the shelf gets bumped. Runners also set a weight budget and go out of adjustment; a fixed angled shelf on 32 mm system holes does neither, and it can be moved to a different height in minutes.
How many pairs of shoes fit on a shoe rack?
A 36-inch rack holds about five to six adult pairs per row. An 84-inch tower fitted out entirely with shoe racks takes roughly six rows, so 30 to 36 pairs.
How deep should shoe shelving be?
15 inches. At 24 inches a second row hides behind the first and those pairs stop being worn; the shallower rack keeps the whole collection in view.
Why are angled shoe racks better than flat shelves?
A flat shelf shows a row of toes, so finding one pair means pulling out three. An angled rack with a front retaining lip shows the whole shoe in the same shelf area.
