It’s easy for us to place our new coats or shirts in our closets using the hangers the store provided or old, wire hangers we’ve had for years. Unfortunately, this leaves our garments susceptible to rips and tears. It’s also easy for them to slip the floor, leaving our closets a mess.
Wooden or metal hangers can keep your clothing secure while providing the closet organization you need. Yet, which do you choose? Is wood the better choice or should you go with metal?
The Differences Between Wood & Metal Hangers
Wood and metal hangers do have some differences, with the most obvious around the type of materials used for each part of the hanger. For example, wood hangers typically feature a wooden bar while metal hangers have a stainless steel bar. While wood hangers may come with metal components such as clips, the garment bar is made from hardwood and stained. Metal hangers include all metal components, from hook to clip.
Wood: The Better Choice for Coats & Shirts
If your wardrobe includes a wide range of suit jackets, coats and dress shirts, wood hangers are the best choice. These garments require the structure and durability that only wood can provide. For instance, wood hangers:
- Withstand normal wear and tear: You use your coat hangers daily, so they must be durable. Wood hangers are resistant to wear over time. Plus, wood hangers fit nicely in your wardrobe without rubbing against one another.
- Prevent rips and tears: The contoured wooden bars prevent your clothing from tearing or ripping when pulled. Jackets, dress shirts and suit coats slide off with ease.
- Look great and fit all closets: Wooden hangers come in a wide range of colors to fit any home or business design aesthetic. Plus, they’re made to fit all types and sizes of closets.
