Garage Cabinet Styles and Layouts |

Garage
cabinets are no longer just simple wooden shelves
covered in chipped paint and hanging by a rusty nail
in a forgotten corner of the garage. Today, garage
shelving has evolved into being referred to as "furniture"
for the garage by offering a stunning array of options--wall
cabinets, standing cabinets, rolling cabinets, pantry-style
cabinets, modular cabinets and even cabinets equipped
with remote locking mechanisms.
While stainless steel and aluminum are the most popular
choices for garage cabinet material, other options
that may be more accommodating in certain conditions
include sturdy plastic resin, plywood or medium density
fiberboard that often have an outer layer made from
laminate. However, garage owners need to know that
cabinets made from wood and MDF are heavier than other
types of cabinets and tend to be susceptible to moisture
damage. Standing cabinets should never be made from
wood or particle board if the possibility of them
being exposed to water or high humidity exists.
Metal garage cabinets offer the benefits of being
strong, resistant to wear and tear and able to hold
heavy object. Quality aluminum and stainless steel
cabinets are always protected with a special powder
coating that makes them resistant to rust or corrosion
caused by spilled chemicals. Like plastic, metal cabinets
are also easy to wipe clean or can be hosed off in
the yard using a garden hose for fast clean-ups.
The layout of your garage cabinets depend on several
factors--available garage space, what sort of items
are going to be stored in your cabinets and the aesthetic
aspect of your garage makeover. For a more streamlined
appearance, consider attaching wall cabinets all around
your garage evenly, with one or two work benches placed
strategically underneath the cabinets. For garages
primarily used as workshops or for auto repair, rolling
cabinets may be preferable to stationary cabinets,
especially if rolling cabinets contain heavier equipment.
Garages that are "space hungry" will benefit
from nifty looking corner cabinets that resemble the
type of corner shelves used in homes. Corners are
often overlooked "dead" spaces in garages
of which spiders only take advantage. Well, get ahead
of the game and fill those corners with beautiful,
space-saving cabinets before those spiderwebs can
take over!
For a trendy, more modern look, consider modular cabinets
that can be attached to special wall mounts and easily
moved to other areas on the wall when necessary. Modular
garage cabinets are rapidly developing into the most
popular kind of cabinets used when homeowners decide
to renovate their garage due to their flexibility
and convenience when adjusting for the addition of
items. |
