With its open floor space and wide entryway, the garage is undeniably one of the best storage areas in the home. Indeed, many people decide to dedicate their entire garage to storage. Though we hate to see the possibility of a garage wasted entirely on storage, what’s worse is seeing homeowners who neglect to even follow a storage strategy. These poor souls usually end up losing their garage under a mass of holiday decorations, rusty bicycles, lawn maintenance equipment, and walls of unlabeled storage bins.
We at Global Garage like to see homeowners reclaim their garage space and put it to use to support their hobbies and passions. Don’t settle for an oversized and over-cluttered closet space any longer. Reclaim your garage with these 3 great garage storage ideas, and set up the ultimate hobby den!
Install cabinetry that complements your hobbies
One of Global Garage’s favorite storage solutions is powder coated wood cabinets. These are built of the highest quality, yet can still fit any budget. Powder coated wood cabinets allow you to customize your storage space, tailoring their size, style, and security settings to your hobby’s unique needs.
Powder coated wood cabinets have a durable finish and a quality rating that places them at the top of the list of garage storage cabinets on the market right now. Global Garage installs rail-mounted cabinets to improve their longevity, and to support the weight of larger objects. Rail-mounted cabinets also prevent you from having to worry about upturned screwed, and damaged walls or siding. Don’t trust your delicate hobby pieces to an uncovered shelf – especially when it is an unorganized one that is constantly at risk of having its free-standing contents jostled onto the floor as you rifle through it!
Global Garage’s powder coated wood cabinets come available in a variety of color coatings to help your organizational strategy. Imagine knowing exactly where your train set, oil-based paints, or ski goggles are at a glance. The days of digging through unlabeled bins are over! If you have ever wanted to convert your garage into the ultimate football bar, custom color selections let you paint your new lounge space in your team colors.
Many people appreciating the value of garage cabinet storage make the mistake of trying to recycle closet cabinetry, or to re-use stock cabinets that were not made with their unique space in mind. Leftovers from renovation jobs and kitchen remodels may seem like an economic choice, but they are neither secure nor custom-fitted. This puts you at risk of costing yourself money with broken hobby items, and also eats up valuable square-footage with awkward and unfilled corner spaces resulting from a poor fit. Global Garage’s cabinetry is custom-designed to your unique space and needs, and can be built tall enough to accommodate skis, golf clubs, and long tools, while being secure enough for safe-keeping items like hunting rifles and bows.
Slot walls for organization, efficiency, and decorative versatility
Slot walls are an excellent addition to most garages, enabling hooking storage attachments of varying sizes and styles to be installed in your garage, giving you an endless amount of storage and decorative options. Organic gardeners can mount their entire arsenal of shovels, rakes, hoes, and spades. Ski enthusiasts can line their walls with skis, poles, and snowboards. The extreme sports fan can trust in slot walls’ durability and strength for their mountain bikes, promising both safety and accessibility.
Seek out overhead storage in worse-case scenarios
Overhead storage can be useful when you need to keep bulky seasonal items out of the way. Rather than giving up space in your garage gym, music room, or home brewery, you can simply throw bulky items into overhead storage and forget about them.
