Mudroom Cabinets and Lockers in Atlanta

A mudroom is the one room in a house where the cabinetry has to survive children, wet shoes and a dog, and it is the room most often built out of whatever was left over. It deserves better, because it is also the part of the house that visitors walk through first.

Rest Cabinetry works from 6115 Jimmy Carter Blvd, Suite E, Norcross, GA 30071, Monday to Saturday 9:00 to 17:00. Boxes are all-plywood throughout - a strict no-particleboard policy - with a 12-month limited warranty on cabinets, hinges and drawer glides. Collect the same day in Norcross or have the order delivered in 7 to 10 business days across metro Atlanta.

Lockers, bench, and what has to be custom

A mudroom divides into three: open lockers with a hook rail and a shelf above, a bench across the bottom, and closed storage at one or both ends.

The closed storage is straightforward - tall cabinets and wall cabinets straight from the stocked range. The bench and the open lockers are custom work, because their height, depth and division depend on who is using them, and no stock cabinet is built as a seat. That is the honest split, and it is worth knowing before a budget is set.

Custom cabinetry is the route for those parts. Customers supply room measurements, we survey the space, and the design is modelled in 3D against the sizes and the style chosen.

Bench height, hook height, and the shoe problem

A bench that is comfortable for an adult is roughly 18 inches to the seat. Any lower and it is hard to get up from; any higher and a child's feet do not reach the floor.

Hooks go at about 48 inches for children and 60 for adults, which is why a mudroom used by both usually gets two rails rather than one compromise height. And shoes need more space than anyone estimates - open cubbies under the bench fill within a month, so plan for more pairs than the household owns.

Finishes that survive a mudroom

This is the one room where a mid-tone or dark finish is the practical choice rather than the dramatic one. Navy, charcoal and deep green hide the marks a mudroom collects; a crisp white bench front shows every scuff within a season.

The stocked range covers white, grey, blue, green, black and charcoal, natural wood and brown, so the locker ends and tall cabinets can match whatever the bench is finished in.

Frequently asked questions

Are mudroom lockers stock cabinets or custom?

The tall and wall cabinets are stock. The bench and the open lockers are custom work, because their height and division depend on the household and no stock cabinet is built to sit on.

How high should a mudroom bench be?

About 18 inches to the seat for adults. Rooms used by children as well usually get two hook heights - roughly 48 inches and 60 - rather than one height that suits neither.

What finish is best for a mudroom?

A mid-tone or dark one. Navy, charcoal and deep green hide the marks the room collects; a pale bench front shows scuffs quickly in a doorway that gets daily traffic.

Can a mudroom match the kitchen cabinets?

Yes - the same nine collections and the same finishes are used, so the mudroom can either match the kitchen or be a deliberate contrast to it.

Do you deliver across metro Atlanta?

Yes - 7 to 10 business days anywhere on the delivery route, or same-day collection at 6115 Jimmy Carter Blvd, Suite E, Norcross, GA 30071. Service areas lists every city.
