Garage Organization: 6 Things Your Garage Wants for Christmas
Between vehicles, lawn and garden equipment, outdoor toys, tools, and storage, your garage works hard all year. With Christmas time coming up fast, it’s time to treat it to an upgrade. But what should you choose? We have a few great ideas in mind!
1. Epoxy Garage Flooring
Imagine your garage with a shiny, smooth, and durable floor that’s easy to clean. Epoxy garage flooring not only transforms the look of your space but also provides protection against spills, stains, and cracks. This gift will not only make your garage look sleek but also help it withstand the test of time. Plus, it’s a gift that keeps on giving since it requires minimal maintenance.
2. Custom Garage Cabinets
Does your garage resemble a chaotic storage unit more than a functional space? Garage cabinets are the answer to that problem. Custom cabinets come in all shapes and sizes to create the perfect storage solution for tools, sporting equipment, gardening supplies, and more. This gift to your garage will ensure that everything has its place—and the garage stays tidy all year long.
3. LED Lighting
Let there be light in your garage! With LEDs, you can swap out the bulbs in your existing fixtures, or upgrade those fixtures with new ones. Either way, look for LED bulbs and light fixtures made for garages as these tend to be ultra bright so that you can light up your workspace while cutting energy costs.
4. The StoreWall System
This is the unsung hero of garage organization. Carolina Custom Garage is an authorized dealer of StoreWall, which is an innovative slatwall system that lets you hang a variety of hooks, baskets, and other organization solutions. Use hooks and hangers to organize everything from smaller tools like hammers and screwdrivers to larger items like extension cords, shovels, rakes and more. StoreWall’s baskets and shelves give you the perfect spot for all the odds and ends that you can’t hang up. StoreWall is waterproof and stain-resistant, too, so it will keep on looking great even in busy garages where the occasional spill or mess is likely to happen.
The best part? StoreWall puts all of your most-used tools and equipment within easy reach, plus you can rearrange hooks, hangers, and more as your needs change, making it a versatile addition to your garage.
5. Wall-Mounted Tool Racks
Wall-mounted tool racks come in various shapes and sizes, designed to accommodate a variety of items, from long-handled brooms to tiny screwdrivers. These racks are the ideal gift for garages that are begging you to free up valuable floor space while keeping tools neatly organized.
6. Overhead Storage Systems
If your garage has a high ceiling or lots of wasted space above the garage door’s rails, consider getting it an overhead storage system for Christmas. These systems consist of sturdy racks or platforms that hang from your garage ceiling, safely stashing away items you don’t need to access daily—like the seasonal decorations once you’re done with them for the year. Overhead storage systems take full advantage of your vertical space—and that means you’ll be able to empty out a closet elsewhere in your home or safely stow away those boxes that have been taking up space on the garage floor.
This Christmas, don’t forget to show your garage some love. Whether you choose to revamp the flooring, add storage, or improve its functionality, these gifts will transform your garage into a more organized, efficient, and inviting space.
