how deep is this shoe closet/

10 years ago

can I use a closet 10" deep for shoes? I wear a size 10 shoes, and when I placed my shoes flat in the closet, the shoes are protruding about half an inch. since I live in a dusty environment, would like to have doors on the closet. would the depth work if I put the shelves at an angle?

Yes, they would. The angle in this picture looks as though it would be enough to keep your toes in. I did a quick trigonometry check and rise at the back would have to be about 4.5" to accommodate your shoes.

Hi, thanks for your question. The standard shelf depth is 14", however our soltuions are custom so the shelf depth can vary to suit the space you have and what you need to store on the shelves.

thanks gingerclaire. just one more questions. Would 10 inches be sufficient space between shelves for shoes? My tallest heels are 4 inches.

Easily - why not draw a diagram to be certain?
