Say goodbye to clutter and hello to efficiency with our 5 ingenious storage ideas to maximise space in your garage.
The garage is always overlooked and is often seen as a place to dump your unwanted or unused rubbish, but turning it into a usable and organised room such as a home gym or home office could add value to your home.
Most people who have this idea are under the impression that they don’t have enough space for these, but if you follow our easy garage storage ideas then you could create the space that you need.
1. Buy or build a storage tower
Many homeowners make the classic mistake of stacking one bin directly on top of the other, but here at Dencroft Garages, our garage solution would be to purchase a storage tower.This storage option is particularly helpful for those who store seasonal items such as winter clothing or winter sports equipment in their garage. Storage towers would make everything a whole lot more accessible and wouldn’t mean having to keep stacking your boxes up to get to the bottom one.
2. Invest in garage storage cabinets
Having garage storage cabinets where you can keep all your tools will make a world of difference. If you choose to do so, there won’t be any tools lying around on the worktop or drawers, instead, you’ll have a well-organised cabinet full of everything you need. This is a great idea to ensure garage safety for if you have pets or young children that have access, as the tools could be harmful to them.
3. Consider a folding workbench for workshop storage
If you or a member of your family often uses the garage as a workshop of some kind, it would be worth considering workshop storage options, such as building your very own folding workbench. The best type of these are the ones that are attached to the wall and can be folded up after every use as you won’t be wasting as much space compared to if it were a regular bench.
4. Build your own garage ceiling storage
Building your own garage ceiling storage could be one of the smartest things you ever do. If you lay down boards across the ceiling beams or use ceiling-mounted racks, you will double the storage space in your garage as they are great for heavier/bigger items that aren’t used all that often such as luggage or winter clothing.The above can’t be installed if you have an up and over or sectional garage door as these doors require ceiling space.
5. Purchase a bike wall mount
Bikes can be bulky and difficult to store, taking up a lot of space in a garage. Storage solutions such as purchasing a bike wall mount will keep your bikes off the ground creating more floor space in your garage, whilst also being within reach for those days you fancy a pedal out.
