A Garage Project
February 16, 2009
It may still be winter, but that doesn’t mean it’s too early to think about sorting out your garage. You may think of us mostly for our closets - well, think of the garage as a closet for your car. Everyone will have their own assortment of miscellaneous things in their garage: workshop tools, sports gear, lawn and garden equipment, automotive parts. We can help with all of these things and more, with a variety of solutions for you. Our RedLine garagegear system offers heavy duty powder coated cabinets for stashing away all those things that you need, but don’t want left out in the open. For the “grab-and-go” items - rakes, brooms, hoses, etc - a wall system of hooks and racks will usually suit the bill. Schulte’s Activity Organizers system offers the ability to interchange a variety of organizers on a metal grid. For a larger wall space and a more finished look, StoreWALL slat wall panels are a great alternative to traditional mdf slat wall. Stronger than mdf, StoreWALL panels are made of a heavy duty PVC to prevent warping.
We recently did a cabinet installation with RedLine garagegear that posed an interesting challenge. The customer’s garage had a jog in the corner, and the request was to build cabinets on the adjacent walls around the jog, and leave a small counter space next to the door to the house. If the cabinets are too close on either side, the doors won’t open. Similarly, if the cabinets are too far away from the jog, a deep space is created that things can get “lost” in. So we put a filler panel in between the cabinets, to create the proper spacing and to complete the look. Closer to the garage door, the customer installed some of our StoreWALL panels and hooks, for the grab-and-go things. You can see the finished installation by clicking on the thumbnails below. The cabinet color is called Sandstone; the slat wall color is Cedar. You can get more information about our garage offerings by viewing our Garages page. We also have examples of all of our offerings installed at our Eglinton showroom.
