The Collection
Wood Storage Benches
Every bench here starts as solid hardwood and gets built after your order comes in. The seat lifts or the drawers pull out, so shoes and bags have somewhere to go instead of the floor. Grain runs differently through each board, so the bench that ships to you carries its own figure.
Widths run from 39 to 47 inches. Measure the wall first and leave room for a door swing. Finishes come in black, oak, brown and walnut, so the bench can either disappear into the trim or stand apart from it. Three builds sit in this group. A lift-top hides everything under the seat. A drawer version keeps small items sorted and reachable while seated. An open-cubby base leaves shoes visible and easy to grab on the way out.
Worth knowing before you order: a lift-top puts weight in the seat itself, so check the hinge spec if the bench will be opened daily. Benches ship flat in parts to cut damage and freight cost, with printed assembly steps inside and email help if you need it. Free worldwide delivery on every order, 30-day returns.
Before you buy
Wood Storage Benches: questions, answered
Is an entryway storage bench from this collection really solid wood?+
Every entryway storage bench here is a solid wood bench with a lift-top or drawer for enclosed storage. There is no veneer, no MDF and no particle board anywhere in the build.
What sizes are available?+
Most pieces in this collection come in several sizes, with exact dimensions and a price for each size on the product page. Measure the spot in your entryway or bedroom first, then check the largest dimension against it before you commit.
Anything I should plan for before ordering?+
A lift-top adds weight to the seat itself. Check the hinge spec if the bench will see daily use.
How does delivery work for an entryway storage bench?+
Every piece is made to order and built by hand. Delivery is free worldwide, and tracking is emailed the moment your piece ships.
What if it does not work in my space?+
You have 30 days to decide. If the piece is not right, you have 30 days to return it for a full refund, with clear instructions from our team. For oversized pieces we can arrange home collection. Every entryway storage bench also carries a 10 year structural warranty.
How do I care for the wood?+
Dust with a soft cloth and condition the wood with a light coat of furniture oil once or twice a year. Solid wood wears in over time, and small marks can usually be buffed out.
Every entryway storage bench in this collection starts as solid hardwood and stays that way from surface to core. Each piece is a solid wood bench with a lift-top or drawer for enclosed storage, joined by hand and finished to bring out the wood’s natural warmth, so it wears in over the years instead of wearing out.
How to choose the right entryway storage bench
Fit the room first
Most pieces in this collection are sized for the entryway or bedroom. Measure the wall or floor space you can give the piece, then check it against the largest dimension listed on the product page. Each size shows its own price, so you can compare before you commit.

Care takes one line
Dust with a soft cloth and condition the wood with a light coat of furniture oil once or twice a year. Small marks buff out over a weekend, and the surface only looks better for the use.
Styles in this collection
The designs run from lift-top to with drawers and open-cubby base pieces, all cut from the same solid stock. If you are building the whole room around wood, the same grain and construction run through our wood dog bowl stands and wood shoe benches, so the space can carry one idea from wall to wall.
What solid wood gives you that veneer cannot
A veneer piece is a photograph of wood glued over particle board. It looks right for a year or two, then an edge lifts and there is nothing underneath worth repairing. Solid wood is the same material at the surface and at the core:
- Scratches and rings sand or buff out, because the grain continues below the surface.
- Joinery is cut into the wood itself, so the structure tightens with care instead of loosening with age.
- The piece can be refinished decades from now and come back looking new.
