What's the Best Way to Install Storage in My Garage? provided by ServiceMagic.com.
Garage organizing is one of the easiest, and most neglected, home improvements tasks for homeowners to tackle. In fact, if you're like most homeowners, the terms "garage," and "organize," never occur in the same sentence. If you're tired of that black hole sitting on the other side of the mudroom door, however, garage organizing is easier than it looks. The key is installing a good garage storage system, so that everything in your garage has a home to call its own.
Garage Storage System Basics
The three main types of storage systems out there for homeowners to choose from are garage cabinets, garage shelving, and overhead garage storage bins. Since all have distinct advantages for different storage needs, your best bet is choosing a combination of the three in order to optimize your garage storage. Still it's good to know the ins and outs of each garage storage system before you buy.
Garage Cabinets are probably the most popular, and expensive, form of garage storage on the market. The benefits of garage cabinets are pretty straightforward. Not only do they provide storage space for all your tools, gear, and other supplies, they also hide it all behind neatly crafted plastic and metal cabinet doors. Garage Shelving is the most cost effective storage solution, and is also one of the easiest to install (easier than overhead garage storage, anyway). From a convenience standpoint, garage shelving is tough to beat, making it easy to find whatever you're looking for. The danger with shelving is that, for some homeowners, what starts out looking like slick, organized, new shelving, eventually clutters and spills out into the rest of the garage, putting you right back where you started.
