and shelving systems now available.
Walls are often under-utilised space
in most garages, but can be made to
work harder with vertical wall storage
systems, perfect for stashing tall, thin
items such as rakes and shovels. For
rarely used items, like Christmas
decorations or camping gear, a roof/
ceiling-mounted storage system that
sits above vehicles is a clever solution.
Make sure you select shelving units
5
able to withstand a decent amount
of weight - they'll need to hold paint
tins, tools and even spare tiles. Keep
items that need full protection from
damp - such as clothing - in heavy-
duty storage crates that will keep out
water, dirt and insects.

Good lighting
7
Well-organised spaces need decent
illumination. If your garage lighting is
limited, consult a licensed electrician
for an upgrade. LED batten lighting is
a good choice, throwing out a lot of
light, and can be hung on the ceiling
and placed above cabinets, work
areas and shelving. LED globes don't
have a filament, so are less prone to
10
damage if knocked or bumped. Work
lights with clamps, along with wired-in
task lighting, are another option for
12
workbench areas.
