The basic aim of a garage is to park your vehicle(s), but even after doing so a lot of space is left in the garage that you can use appropriately. Most of us use this space to store various items like paint boxes, garden tools and equipments, water pipes, old magazines and several other junk materials which can be use in repair or renovation in future. To store it all in an organized manner, so that it does not come in the way, a garage cabinet system is required.

Another thing to factor in your decision is if the units are able to be wall mounted or if they will have to sit on the floor. If they do need to stay on the floor, do the garage cabinets come with legs or rollers for ease of moving or do they sit flat on the floor with nothing underneath? The use of garage cabinets is one of many great ways to an organized garage. garage cabinets come in so many shapes and sizes that you will almost certainly find one or a combination of a few that will meet your storage needs. You can store anything you can think of in these units as long as the items will physically fit in there.

Broadly, they can be classified as metal, wooden, and plywood cabinets. But deciding which of these is most suitable for a garage requires deeper consideration. Metal cabinets score over wooden and plywood cabinets, in terms of durability. This is the reason metal cabinets are more expensive when compared to the other two types of cabinets. But durability may not always be essential for storing the objects that normally end up in garages.

You can mount garage cabinet on the wall or it can sit on the floor. The wall mounting is probably what you would prefer. It is up off the floor giving you more space. Setting cabinets on the floor exposes them to moisture. This is a real problem if your cabinets are made from wood. Wall mount cabinets also keep the contents of the unit out of reach to most little critters like mice.
