Is Your Garage Messy?
The garage is often a neglected, messy space. With a little organization and a few handy projects, though, we can get much more use out of our garages and also modernize them. Here are our top 10 garage upgrade ideas.
10. Install a Ceiling Storage System
Make better use of your garage’s space and get things off the floor with this DIY project. It costs about $75 for all of the materials and is a great way to store seldom-used things like holiday decorations.
9. Store Garden Tools and Other Supplies Smartly on the Wall
With just two boards and a saw you can make this simple tool rack for your wall. For smaller tools, there’s always the trusty pegboard (and alternatives.) If you have a lot of tools, perhaps a hinged pegboard system is for you or this rolling pegboard caddy.
8. Make a Wall-Mounted, Folding Workbench
If your garage is tight on space but you still want to use it as your workspace, this DIY wall-mounted foldable workbench not only stores your tools but also provides project space on an as-needed basis.
7. Upgrade Your Garage Workshop with Simple DIY Projects
You don’t have to spend a fortune to improve your garage workshop. A sheet metal workbench cover, PVC drawer organizers, and custom storage pieces could go a long way towards making your garage a nicer place to DIY. You can also build your own garage storage shelves for under $50 or turn an old file cabinet into a garden tools storage unit.
6. Create an Entire Storage Wall System
Or perhaps go whole hog and turn all of your wall space into a storage system to hold everything from your tools to your garden hose and ladder. The best part of this project is you can customize it exactly for your storage needs.
