1. Garage shelves can run in sections or along an entire wall from floor to ceiling. When installing wall-mounted shelving to brick or cinder block, you must first mount studs using concrete screws.
2. When using freestanding garage shelves, never overload garage shelves; store heavier items on bottom shelves and lighter items on top shelves. Securing the garage shelves to the wall will prevent it from falling.
3. Garage shelves is an inexpensive and practical way to get organized, but always make sure to store poisonous or flammable items on the highest shelf, out of the reach of children. Remember that children love to climb to access what interests them, so never store toys on garage shelves.
4. Overhead garage storage shelves attach to solid wood crossbeams to give you expandable storage when your garage wall and floor spaces are limited. The only tools you need for installation are a straightedge, drill, and screwdriver.
5. Freestanding or wall-mounted garage shelves can be integrated with pegboards or grids and slatwall organizers to transform your garage workshop into the organized workspace you can be proud of. Arrange tools and supplies by grouping like items together as you would find them in the aisles of your favorite hardware department - you'll always know where everything is.
