High Quality Cabinets

Oftentimes, when a home owner chooses a storage solution for their garage, they will decide to utilize garage storage cabinets as their primary means of storing items that would otherwise clutter a garage.

For this reason it is Important to keep the following things in mind when choosing garage storage cabinets as a solution to your cluttered garage.

Purchasing storage cabinets that are wall mounted is a great way to free up floor space, as well as accommodate ease of garage cleaning.

By choosing a cabinet such as those provided by The Garage Organization Company, a homeĀ  owner is sure to feel that their garage is not only more usable for storage, but also aesthetically pleasing.

In the garage organization industry, bicycles are notorious for being difficult to store, and the solution has often lied in hanging the bike from the ceiling, or mounting them to the walls.

Garage Enhancement

3 03 2010

Organized your garage, but still longing for further enhancement? A garage doesn’t have to consist of only a cracked oil stained concrete floor and a dangling light bulb. Creating your dream garage may mean taking it a step further than simply organizing it to it’s fullest potential. Painting it may help increase it’s attractiveness, however, the home owner seeking the perfect garage may need to purchase garage enhancement products such as epoxy flooring, consider installing new lighting fixtures, or upgrading their garage storage cabinets to more aesthetically pleasing models.

Installing epoxy flooring is the initial garage enhancement step that most people will take. Epoxy flooring is a great remedy for unsightly concrete floors, and comes in various colors, allowing you to customize your garage’s color scheme to your personal preference. Many home owners use epoxy flooring in conjunction with new paint on the garage walls in order to revolutionize their garage ‘s appearance, drastically improving the way it looks. Epoxy Flooring also makes cleaning simple, as dirt and debris can easily be swept off of it’s sleek surface. There is a downside however, epoxy flooring can take days to set properly, so you will have to wait before you can park or walk on your new garage floor.

A second simple step that you can take to better the appearance of your garage is to install new lighting fixtures. In many garages, typically those of older homes, garage lighting was not of much concern, and only basic fixtures were installed. Solving this issue by installing lighting fixtures of your preference may help you on your quest for the ultimate garage. Choosing lighting fixtures that are low profile, and mounted closer to the ceiling can solve some space issues, and also make unnatractive lighting fixtures less visible. Another option is to install decorative lighting fixtures, colored bulbs, or “party” lights to add style to your garage. Everyone’s garage enhancement expectations are different, and customizing your garage lighting can help you meet your personal garage decorating goals.

Are the beat up, old wooden cabinets in your garage not cutting it anymore? Do they drag down the appeal of your otherwise attractive garage? It may be time to replace them with newer models. Garage storage cabinets have come a long way to meet the needs of home owners. Many models of garage storage cabinets are capable of holding up to 150 pounds of storage, and are available in various sizes, catering to your specific garage improvement needs. Not only are garage storage cabinets great for storage, but come in many colors, allowing them to be an asset to your garage’s appearance, as well as it’s storage capability. Customizing your garage with an attractive system of garage storage cabinets can make all the difference.

Garage organization can be a task, and for some, the road to their dream garage is a long one. Whether they are searching for the perfect place to park, or a complete man cave, improving your garage’s physical appearance is going to be necessary. Epoxy flooring, new paint, cabinets, and lighting can make worlds of difference towards how you feel about your garage. An enhanced garage





Overhead Garage Storage

11 02 2010

When organizing the garage, a common problem faced by many people is the small amount of garage floor space that they have available. With stacks of boxes or bins, ladders, toolboxes, sports equipment, and holiday decorations being stored, the garage floor space can quickly become cluttered, even rendered unusable for parking. To solve this problem, home owners should consider installing an overhead storage system, which makes use of garage ceiling space in order to maximize a garage’s available storage space.

The most popular overhead storage products available on the market are overhead racks. Overhead storage racks connect to the ceiling, and provide a platform on which to place storage. These storage devices are assuredly safe, as they connect to ceiling joists in order to provide maximum weight capacity, and ensure that they will not fall, causing damage or injury.

How to get started on organizing the garage

4 02 2010

Since many home owners use their garage for home storage purposes, the garage can quickly become cluttered, making it difficult to navigate or park. With this clutter rendering the garage unusable, home owners may be left wondering where to start in order to get their garage organized again.

Here are a few steps to take when beginning the task of organizing the garage:

  • Decide what you actually need to keep, and what can be thrown away. This is an elementary step to take in any garage organization process. Throwing away storage items that you no longer find necessary to keep can greatly increase the available space in your garage.
  • Consider installing garage shelving in your garage. Garage shelving is a quick and easy way to clear garage floor space quickly and effectively. By taking storage and placing it on the shelves, more room is available for parking vehicles, or storing items to large to fit on the shelves. Shelving is often inexpensive, and is a step anyone on any budget can take towards organizing their garage.
  • Consider installing garage storage cabinets. Garage cabinets are an excellent means of improving the organization of nearly any garage. Although garage cabinets can be more expensive than shelving, home owners may find that they provide a more versatile storage solution for their larger storage items. Some cabinets may even be hung from the wall, leaving floor space open for other storage, or easier garage clean up.
  • Organize your tools by placing them in a work bench suitable for storage, or by hanging them from a mounting board on the wall. Tool boxes can take up a great amount of space, especially in the garage of a handy man. Therefore, organizing your tools properly can greatly impact how organized your garage can possibly be.
  • Speculate on the possibility of utilizing garage ceiling space for storage. There are many ways to organize your garage by using the untapped potential of garage ceiling space for storage. If your garage has an attic, you may find that it holds ample room for storage, and may be an effective storage location. However, even though storing items in the attic can be effective, it may cause difficulty in accessing your storage when you wish to retrieve something from it. For this reason, this garage organization blog recommends that home owners look into purchasing overhead storage racks. Overhead storage racks hang from the ceiling, and are capable of holding large amounts of storage. This leaves the garage floor space free for any other use that a home owner may desire! There are also many accessories available for overhead racks, which can exponentially increase your storage capability and efficiency.

Organizing your garage can be tricky, especially after years of clutter have built up. However, if you employ only some of these garage organization tactics, your garage’s organization potential will greatly increase, helping you to meet your garage storage goals.
