Garages can turn into dumping grounds for belongings that don’t fit in the house. Cleaning up this area with custom garage organizers makes it much easier to use every square inch of the space. Here are four features to add to the garage that will make it feel more luxurious and user-friendly.

How to Create a Luxury Garage

1. Add Cabinets

Cabinets make a garage look and feel clean by organizing and concealing your belongings. Install freestanding garage cabinets about 4 feet up the wall to make use of higher space; the space below leaves room for parking the car or stashing smaller yardwork equipment.

Many homeowners also add long, tall cabinets with short pedestals on the bottom. The feet protect this garage organizer against water issues, like flooding or spilled oil and grease. Inside the cabinets, you can add simple shelving for larger items or drawers to host smaller belongings.

2. Create Tool Storage

You don’t have to be a mechanic to need tool storage in the garage. Most homeowners own at least a couple screwdrivers, a saw, a hammer, wrenches, and pliers. Use some wall space to host pegboards for customizable storage where you can hang these items up, so they’re easy to see and grab.

3. Install Slats & Hooks

Homeowners who do landscaping are likely to have some tall tools that are difficult to keep standing. Hang items like shovels, spades, saws, and rakes on a hook-and-slat system. Securing these tools will ensure your kids and car are safe from falling equipment.

4. Build Countertops

It’s easy to take up precious floor space with projects in the garage. Instead of working from the floor—and potentially straining your back and neck—install countertops. Cabinets with drawers and counters can store everything from wooden models to car parts and plant seedlings. You can even work with a garage organizer team and a plumber to install a sink if you need water for gardening or cleaning.
