Personal Belongings in a Garage

![]() Thanks to today's modern storage units designed especially for the garage, the garage can function as a place to store both your belongings and your car. The trick lies in devising a plan that fits your specific storage needs. How do you do this?
Once everything that must be stored in the garage is back in place, you'll know how much storage space you have left. When that is determined, you can begin to look for a storage system that best suits your needs.
Most garage storage units are designed to make the most of vertical space, freeing up the interior space of the garage for the car and other large items. Storage systems can be cabinet-based or wall-hung. Cabinet-based storage systems do take up some floor space; if you choose this type of system, you'll have to measure to make sure it will fit and allow for the opening of car doors. Some cabinet storage systems are modular and have wheels, which allows you to change your storage setup according to your needs. Most wall-hung systems, on the other hand, project only a few inches into the room. Depending upon their storage needs, many homeowners choose a combination of the two systems. Manufacturers of garage storage systems often make complementary wall-hung and cabinet-based systems. In addition to these two storage approaches, many homeowners use simple open shelving units and wall-mounted pegboard with hooks. If you use open shelves, place heavy items on lower shelves. Pegboard hooks are a popular choice for small tool storage.
Finally, be sure to consider all relevant safety issues when storing items in your garage. For instance, hazardous chemicals and power tools should be stored out of small children's reach, and sharp or heavy items should be stowed safely as well.
