Design tip: Remember to accommodate your car(s) before you buy! Mark the footprint(s) of your vehicle(s) with painter’s tape, then mark the footprint of the to-be-installed storage elements (find the dimensions of each item online). Do you have enough space for everything, and to accommodate foot traffic? Okay, now you can buy.
Step 3: Design and install a system
Once you've determined what tools will help you store your goods, spend an afternoon installing your system with a partner to ensure things are installed securely and level.
Use this opportunity to clean items before you store them.
OPTIONAL PRE-INSTALLATION STEPS:
• LIGHTING MAKEOVER: Replace a dim single overhead bulb with track lighting for an instant lift.
• DRYWALL: For a more polished look if your garage has unfinished walls, install drywall before painting.
• PAINT: If your garage is uninspiring, consider painting it a nice, expansive white. Allover colour may be a bit overwhelming in this space, but bright hits of juicy hue on a feature wall can add life to this space.
