Default Garage Storage

Thought I’d put this up on the org as no-one’s interested round here

Moved house just before lockdown. Got all the decoration done and can now get onto the garage.

I wanted storage and a decent workbench at the back of the garage. I was looking at the metal/roller bearing/dream garage stuff but it’s mega bucks.

I had an ex demo kitchen from MFI in my last garage and it was great, so settled for the cheapo IKEA KNOXHULT units - 2 each of the base and wall units. Filled in the gap with some Contiboard shelves. Metal peg board from Amazon, cheapo led strip lights and a 3 metre oak worktop bought online. Less than £700 for the lot.

Still a fair bit just for a garage but I’m funny like that

Looks great, and sounds like good value as well. Nice.

Is that a coaster on the worktop by the vice?? In a garage???

I'd be frightened of getting things dirty

I was going to say... it looks better than our kitchem!


Considering how much time I spend in the garage I think my family really should invest in this sort of thing for me
