Entryway built-in

Here is the latest project - a built-in for a rear entryway off of a garage.  The owner wanted an area to store shoes, as well as a coat area, and some upper storage.  The solution: A lower section, approximately 35" high with several removable shelves, four "bays" for coats, and an upper section for each bay.

As you can see in the before and after pics, there was a floor register to deal with - that was re-ducted to the face of the lower unit.  There are 3 lower shelves that are all removable, but each shelf is the proper height and depth for shoes. The center bays will be coat hanging areas (although these pictures were taken before the coat hooks were installed).  The upper areas have been partitioned off to match the lower bays, and I have finished the top with crown molding.
The back of the unit is finished with bead board, and the top of the lower unit features a stained oak top, that matches the floor color.
This area has been transformed into an immensely useful and functional area, and will serve the family well for decades to come!
