GARAGE FURNITURE

It is customary to call a garage a place where a car is stored, but contrary to the well-known definition, a garage is very rarely used purely as a parking place for a car. Many are accustomed to storing there a stock of tools and various automotive chemicals, someone uses them to store preserves, vegetables, as well as necessary and not very necessary things that did not find a place at home. Men with hands also use the garage as a workshop. Depending on the functionality of this room, as well as on its size, it is necessary to purchase the appropriate furniture for the garage. So what kind of furniture is needed, and what should it be?

Often, the garage also plays the role of a kind of pantry, where things that seem to be no longer needed on the farm are sent to live out, but it’s a pity to throw them away. If we consider that often next to them lie really necessary tools of various kinds (sometimes in huge quantities), cans are stored, sacks of potatoes are lying around, jars with twists for the winter are in a pyramid, then one can imagine what chaos is going on in the garage. A car would fit!

The interior of the garage must be neat and ergonomic. If you organize the storage system correctly, then you yourself will be surprised how much everything can fit in the garage, and how easy it will be to find the right item. In addition, it should be borne in mind that a garage is a specific room, with frequent temperature changes, probably with high humidity, it is often dirty in it, and mechanical damage is possible. All this leaves an imprint on the choice of garage furniture. Therefore, it must meet the following requirements:

reliability, strength, resistance to mechanical damage;
resistance to chemicals;
ease of maintenance, since dust and dirt in the garage is natural, the furniture should simply be cleaned, while maintaining its previous appearance and performance;
resistance to temperature extremes;
fire resistance.
Alas, there is no ideal material for making garage furniture. Wood, for example, is strong, but it is afraid of humidity and temperature changes, and even burns easily. Plastic is lightweight, is not afraid of temperature extremes, mold, corrosion, but cannot withstand high loads. Metal is most suitable, but it is heavy and afraid of corrosion. The last drawback can be leveled if you take furniture made of stainless or galvanized steel.

You can equip the garage with different furniture – it all depends on the tasks that are assigned to this room. The easiest way is to buy ready-made products, but craftsmen can make everything on their own. The main thing is that the furniture meets the requirements listed above and copes with its key tasks with high quality.

All furniture commonly used in garages can be divided into two groups:

racks, shelves, cabinets and bedside tables – everything that is used for storage;
workbenches and tables – work surfaces necessary for some work.
In addition, if space permits and there is a need for this, you can put a sofa in the garage to relax after hard working hours. However, a sofa and other types of upholstered furniture are rather an unconventional solution for a garage, therefore we will not consider them in the article. In addition, few people choose a sofa specifically for the garage. If he is already there, then obviously after many years of use in the apartment.
GARAGE RACK
If you need to organize a neat storage area for numerous tools, fasteners, tires, canisters and other things that sometimes do not even touch the car, then the best option to do this is to use a rack.

Shelves are made from different materials:

metal – these are the most demanded models, they are distinguished by strength, reliability, durability, withstand solid loads, are not afraid of fire, mechanical damage, they have a huge assortment;
wood is a sturdy and inexpensive material, it is often used for self-made furniture. The tree is also able to withstand decent loads, but it is afraid of fire, mold, changes in temperature and humidity, and all these are frequent “guests” of any garage;
plastic is cheap, lightweight, hygienic, but a serious rack cannot be made of it, since the material does not withstand loads well. Shelves with multiple drawers are created from plastic and used to store fasteners.
Shelves can be open or closed, i.e. have doors. Shelves can combine such filling elements as shelves, drawers, cabinets, perforated lattices for hanging tools. The best option is when the shelves can be adjusted in height, because in this case, you can create a storage system that best suits your needs.
Separately, it is worth highlighting modular shelving, the elements of which can be arranged at your discretion, and if something happens, they can be easily swapped. Some of these systems, in addition to standard shelves and cabinets, also include a small wardrobe.
