searching for garage storage cabinets and workbench?
May 27th, 2009 | 
Author: anyone know where to shop for affordable garage storage systems. I like units they sell at Sears by Craftsmen and Gladiator but they are out of my price range. I've checked Home Depot and Menards already. I don't want rubbermaid type. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The cheapest thing I have seen that is super heavy duty are these Costco-esque shelving units called Gorilla Rack. There are lots of other brands like this, too. They are basically metal frames that fit adjustable shelves made out of heavy-duty particleboard. See the link for a picture. They sell these at Costco and OSH most of the time.
Another option is to buy lumber and rent a circular saw, and build it yourself. Ask a teen or retired neighbor to help out for a little cash.

Check with a local kitchen remodelers in your area, they may have some old cupboards they can reuse for your garage and you can save a bunch on them, they would also have some good suggestions for new if that's what you prefer. Good luck

In many metropolitan areas you can find used office furniture at reasonable prices. A good workbench is an old steel desk. Cut a piece of plywood to fit the top. Old file cabinets make for good storage. Use two of the two drawer type as a base for a workbench. Also, check Goodwill etc. and see if there is a company in your area that remodels hotel/motel rooms. They sell the old furniture real cheap.

Why not try a used office equipment auction or store and buy filing cabinets for storage and a suitable desk as a workbench. The filing cabinets can be painted any colour to match your garage decor.
