Tubular furniture: experience industrial elegance!

Before you start with your piece of furniture, you should first think about how many and which items of clothing should fit on your valet stand. Different models are suitable depending on your needs. You will find three different designs in our selection.

At pamo, we want you to be able to realize your individual needs. So that your valet stand is exactly the model that fits perfectly in your bedroom!

Our industrial style furniture has names. After all, it is our faithful companion and it simply feels better.

For our building instructions for the valet stand, also known as the "clothes butler", we have been suitably inspired by famous butlers: Freddie from "Dinner for One", Geoffrey from "The Prince of Bel Air" and Eugene from "The Butler".

And do you know what the best thing about pamo's building instructions is? Thanks to our instructions, you know exactly which DIY components, such as pipes, fittings or connectors, you need and can order them super quickly from the online store .

What's more, the components simply need to be screwed together. No need to cut, deburr, polish, weld or anything similar, as with pipes from the DIY store!

Building instructions

Make your own valet stand from black water pipes

The valet stand made from pipes is simple and also suitable for small bedrooms.

Step 1: Get the DIY components you need for the valet stand made from water pipes. Make sure the pipes are of high quality to prevent them from scratching or bending easily.

You can find all the individual parts you need in our DIY accessories store.

Step 2: Prepare all the DIY components for your valet stand.

In any DIY, it can help to get an overview of the individual parts first. First lay out the coated water pipes and malleable cast iron fittings. This way, you can see whether you have all the parts you need to hand and recognize the shape that your DIY valet stand made of pipes should have.

Step 3: Build the lower part of the valet stand yourself

First, screw two of the fittings in black 4-foldconnector 90° to both sides of the 1Xmalleable cast iron pipe black 70cm .

One of the two threads of the connector remains free. Here you can screw on a malleable cast iron pipe black 25cm (on both sides).

These 25cm malleable cast iron pipes are then both at a 90° angle to the first 70cm pipe. Now screw 1X malleable cast iron T-piece connector to each of the free ends of the 25 cm black malleable cast iron tubes.

The base for your valet stand made of pipes has been built.

Step 4: Building the rear part for the valet stand DIY

The valet stand base is now complete, now the upper bars need to be assembled.

Step 4.1: For the rear, higher part, 1X malleable cast iron water pipe 93cm is screwed to a malleable cast iron pipe black 70cm using a malleable cast iron threaded fitting connector . This step must be repeated until you have two "long rods" that you have screwed together from 4 shorter water pipes.

Step 4.2: To connect the long rods, screw a new black malleable cast iron pipe 70cm to both ends 90° malleable cast iron fitting black connector . The long rods (the 2 connected 93cm & 70cm pipes) are screwed into the two free openings of the connectors just screwed in. Now you have finished the rear part of the men's valet stand made of tubes!

Step 5: the smaller, front part

The front, shorter part is still missing for the finished DIY valet stand. To do this, you need to repeat step 4.2 from the rear part, except that the vertical pipes are now not 2 interconnected water pipes, but a single 93 cm malleable cast iron water pipe.

Your DIY pipe valet stand is almost finished! To connect the upper part and the lower part, you need 4X the malleable cast iron adapter. This consists of 3 parts and can be unscrewed.

First put part B over the thread of the vertical, long rod. Then screw the threaded part C onto the free thread of the 93 cm water pipe. Part A of the adapter must be screwed onto the free thread of the foot. Now part B can be screwed downwards so that the adapter is screwed tight and holds. In this way you can connect all 4 pipes of the upper part to the foot.

From second 57 you can see this part again clearly in the video linked above.

To ensure that your valet stand stands securely and does not scratch your floor, we recommend that you stickanti-slip pads to the underside of the feet that touch the floor.

The final step: marvel, enjoy, be proud, open a beer or champagne and start thinking about which piece of furniture you want to build next!

The pamo quality - specially developed for cane furniture

It all started with a DIY clothes rail made from water pipes from the DIY store. We realized that these pipes are not suitable for building cane furniture.
The disadvantage of water pipes from the DIY store: they are very expensive, not suitable for heavy loads, scratch very quickly and the oil residue on the pipes will ruin your beautiful clothes. Not so with pamo! pamo stands for quality: the malleable cast iron pipes and DIY components, as well as the fittings and connectors are:

  • Super easy to assemble & disassemble, making them suitable for any move
  • Extremely inexpensive for this durable, highly resilient and stable quality
  • With powder-coated, even surface
  • Therefore extremely scratch and impact resistant
  • Universally suitable thanks to their simple and modern design
  • Leave no oil or dirt residue on your clothing
  • Made for your individual DIY piece of furniture, such as a valet stand

Our pamo promise to you:
  • 100 days right of return
  • Free delivery in Germany

Thanks to their special powder coating, our DIY components are protected against scratches and chipping of the paint for a very long time. But it's not just our coating that has been improved compared to pipes from the DIY store. The malleable cast iron water pipes are also extremely stable. They do not bend even under heavy loads. At the same time, the solid 25.4 mm thick metal pipes and malleable cast iron fittings are very scratch-resistant and hard-wearing. They will therefore last for years and do not need to be replaced every time you move or renovate.

The DIY components from pamo give you a lot of creative freedom. Thanks to the high quality, you can adapt your piece of furniture to your individual needs at any time and expand it easily. Sounds good, doesn't it?

The metal valet stand

Perfect hanging option for clothes in the bedroom or dressing room

The men's valet stand is a simple coat rack that is perfect for hanging blazers, blouses, jackets or jackets.

It also offers several hanging options for pants, ties, scarves, shawls or socks and ensures crease-free storage. Various synonyms are also mute valet or clothes butler.

At pamo, we think the idea of a self-built valet stand is simply great and offer you the perfect components in proven pamo quality.

This means you can build your own individual piece of furniture from malleable cast iron water pipes (black metal) and don't have to buy pipes from the DIY store, for which you need special, expensive tools and which - in the worst case - can even stain your clothes.
