# DIY Guide: Build a Stylish Industrial Pipe Clothes Rail at Home.
Are you ready to add some industrial flair to your room? Building an industrial pipe clothes rail is a fun and straightforward project. Let’s get started! This guide will walk you through the process step by step.
## Tools and Materials.
Before we dive in, let's gather our materials and tools. Here’s what you need:
1. **Pipes and Fittings**:
- 2 floor flanges.
- 2 T-joints.
- 2 elbow joints.
- Length of pipe for the rail (measure to fit your space).
- Shorter pipes for the base.
2. **Tools**:
- Drill.
- Measuring tape.
- Screws.
- Screwdriver.
“Sounds good! Where do I get these pipes?” you might ask. Most home improvement stores carry them, or you can check with a local supplier.
## Step 1: Measure Your Space.
First, measure the area where you'll place the clothes rail.
“Why is measuring essential?” you wonder.
It ensures the rail fits perfectly in your designated spot. Use a measuring tape and jot down the measurements.
## Step 2: Assemble the Pipe Base.
Now, it’s time to assemble the base.
1. Attach one floor flange to a short pipe.
2. Screw the other end of the small pipe into a T-joint.
3. Repeat this with the other side.
“So, what next?” you ask.
## Step 3: Build the Uprights.
Connect the upright pipes that will hold the main rail.
1. Screw a longer pipe into each T-joint.
2. Attach elbow joints to the tops of these pipes.
3. Screw the rail pipe into both elbow joints to complete the structure.
“I see! It’s taking shape now,” you say, excitedly.
## Step 4: Secure to the Wall.
Position the assembled rail against your wall. Mark where the floor flanges will be. Use your drill to secure the floor flanges into the wall with screws.
“Nice! It looks sturdy,” you’ll note, admiring your work.
## Step 5: Add Finishing Touches.
Wipe down the pipes to remove any grease or dust. You can even spray-paint the pipes for a customized look.
“That’s awesome! Can I paint it any color?”.
Absolutely! Pick a color that matches your room's decor for a polished finish.
## Final Tips.
- **Check for Stability**: Make sure everything is tight and secure.
- **Weight Test**: Hang a few items to test the stability. Your rack should hold clothes comfortably.
“This is amazing! Now my room has a unique piece that I built myself!”.
## Conclusion.
Creating a stylish industrial pipe clothes rail is a fantastic DIY project. It’s functional and adds personality to your room. Whether you need storage for clothes or just want an eye-catching piece, this rail is perfect for you.
