For architects and installers

Three-part specifications, cut sheets and installation instructions for every standard model.

Care is simple: wipe with a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth, and on wall racks check now and then that bracket and slat fasteners are tight.

Quality, innovations and service

Some people may think making a hat or coat rack is simple. More than 75 years of design and manufacturing experience has taught EMCO that it is the small things that affect quality in a big way.

Quality

The highest quality materials, for lasting beauty. Many products are handcrafted by seasoned professionals who take real pride in their work.

Innovations

You see it first in smooth, durable finishes, tight assemblies and sturdy joints. You appreciate it when you install the unit and find secure, convenient mounting. And years later, when it is still standing up to daily use.

Service

Experienced people dedicated to meeting your needs. Custom lengths at no extra charge, and orders that ship quickly.

That's commitment. That's service. That's EMCO.
