In this blog entry, the professional Charleston garage door installation service team here at A1 Garage Door Charleston will detail some tips for maximizing your garage storage.
- Clear Overhead Space – Free up space in your garage by using your ceiling for storage. Purchase and install a ceiling garage storage system, which is ideal for storing seasonal items or items that you don’t use often.
- Throwing Out Clutter – Purge any items you don’t need or use. Garages often become places where people dump or hoard items they don’t use but are holding onto. Empty your garage of all unneeded items, and take an inventory of all the items in your garage that you want to keep.
- Using Wall Space– We recommend using your garage walls to store bicycles, shovels, lawn chairs, garden rakes, and other items like this. It’s easy to create a tool rack out of wood boards that hold gardening tools. It’s also possible to hang larger items like wheelbarrows and ladders. Use pegboards to mount tools on walls and keep your workbench less cluttered and more organized. Wall hangers can also be used to keep your garage floor neater and give you more space to work and move.
- Create a Tool Area– We recommend creating a tool area by organizing your garage with wall hangers, standing toolboxes, and pegboards. This makes it easier to find tools for any projects that you’re working on.Shelving – Add more shelves to your garage, as the more shelf space in your garage is available, the more space you will have to free up in other areas of your garage. We recommend installing deep shelves with even more room to store your belongings. Corner shelves are also fantastic for maximizing storage space.
