So you installed your garage floor (or maybe not) and now you are looking for an affordable garage storage solution. Perhaps garage storage cabinets are not in the budget yet or they take up to much room. Perhaps you already have cabinets but you are looking for a way to store those items that you use every day.
Handiwall Garage Storage Slat wall system is ideal for people looking for an affordable garage storage option that is fast and easy to install. One box of Handiwall can be installed over a standard wall in less than 20 minutes. If you have a concrete wall and you are going to use out Handiwall Concrete screws to attach your wall storage allow a little extra time.
The Handiwall garage storage system allows you to use hooks, baskets, bins, shelves and even cabinets to store almost anything imaginable. In our showroom we have over 10 gallons of Pour N Restore (about 50 pounds) on one shelf alone. We also have a wrench holder, two sets of screw bins, screw driver holder, magnetic tool holder, paper towel holder, bat and ball holder and so much more.
One mistake we made when we put Handiwall in our garage is we went overboard. You would thing being that I sell wall storage every day that I would not make that mistake. Unfortunately I did. I had a whole wall covered with the product and here is what I learned
Start the first panel at about the height of your knees. Continue up the wall and stop when you install a panel where you could not reach any higher to install a hook or basket. My personal experience and my experience from dealing with tens of thousands of customers indicates that people will not use the wall storage if they have to get a ladder (that’s what overhead garage storage is for) or if they have to bend down to far –not to mention that the slatwall does no good in areas where the hook would it the ceiling or the item you are trying to store sits on the floor. One more suggestion: Take the time to mark each and every stud in the area where you are going to install the panels and center the panels as best you can to get a screw as close to each edge of each panel.
