Your entryway deserves more than just a pile of coats and a heap of shoes. It’s the first impression of your home and the last space you see before heading out for the day. And if you’ve been thinking about adding custom mudroom lockers, you’re on the right track to a more organized, stylish, and functional home.
At Catalina Closets, we specialize in creating custom mudroom storage systems that are not only practical but beautiful and built to last.
Let’s walk through exactly what to expect when you install custom mudroom lockers with our team—from that first phone call to the final, satisfying moment when you slide your shoes into a freshly built cubby.
Why Choose Custom Mudroom Lockers?
Before we dive into the process, let’s talk about why custom mudroom lockers are such a smart investment.
✔️ Tailored to your lifestyle – Whether it’s kids, pets, guests, or gear, your storage is built around real-life needs.
✔️ Built-in functionality – Seating, shoe storage, hooks, cubbies, cabinets—it’s all in one streamlined system.
✔️ Minimizes clutter – No more dumping bags or balancing boots in corners.

Here at Catalina Closets, we design and build everything locally in Dane County, Wisconsin, using frameless, European-style cabinetry that reflects clean lines and minimalist beauty.
Step 1: Let’s Chat – Your Free Custom Mudroom Lockers Design Consultation

It all starts with a simple conversation. No pressure, no obligations—just a chance to explore the possibilities.
During your complimentary consultation, we’ll:
Dive into how your family actually uses the space on a daily basis.
Pinpoint those frustrating pain points: shoes piling up, backpacks with no home, pet gear scattered everywhere—sound familiar?
Discuss layout ideas, dimensions, and your must-haves.
Go through inspiration photos and dig into your lifestyle needs and preferences.
We’re flexible—you can meet with us in your home or virtually, whatever fits your schedule. Whether your mudroom is a blank canvas waiting for inspiration or already has some basic shelving in place, we’ll help you completely reimagine it to suit your family’s needs.
Step 2: Measure & Assess the Space
Now, it’s time to get down to the details.
We take precise, detailed measurements of your mudroom or entryway to ensure everything fits seamlessly. Have photos, plans, or blueprints? Perfect—those work, too!
Accurate measurements are key to ensuring your built-in mudroom lockers fit like they were always meant to be there, even in tough corners or tight spots.
Our team also takes into account:
Door swing clearance to keep everything functional.
The perfect seating height and depth for comfort.
Electrical access for built-in charging stations and more.
Flooring transitions to keep the design smooth and cohesive.
Every detail is meticulously considered to ensure your locker system isn’t just functional—it’s a flawless addition to your home.
Step 3: Design Your Dream Custom Mudroom Lockers
With your space mapped out and your needs clearly defined, we move to the custom mudroom design phase—this is where the magic happens.
