DIY Garage Cabinet Ideas WRITTEN BY DALIA ROTRAMMEL


There are plenty of creative ways to build or install cabinets in your garage. The best thing is that you can do it on your own without having to spend too much. Moreover, you can make your garage storage system more space-efficient by installing top-opening lids or sliding doors. This allows you to access items inside a cabinet without having to move your car out of the garage. It helps if you have a few DIY garage cabinet ideas in mind.

In this post, we’ll discuss a few garage cabinet ideas you can do to make the most of your garage storage and give your garage a facelift.

Some Paint Can Go a Long Way

Paint is a low-cost upgrade that can instantly renew and transform any room. This is a great way to revive a garage on a tight budget. Consider using chalkboard paint and a versatile labeling system. Chalkboard paint is cheap to buy. It can be tinted any color, which allows you to use multiple shades or colors for a custom look or brighten up a dark garage with bright paint.

The Hidden Fold-Down Table

There are many reasons to organize a garage, such as maximizing space. A hidden table can help with this. This type of table can provide a gift-wrapping station, workbench, craft table or gardening bench. You can either build one yourself with some pegboard panels and a shelving unit or buy one at a wholesale store. This is a great way to store supplies and incomplete projects while also having a convenient workspace available whenever you need one. 

Wall to Wall Cabinets

If you have a crowded or small garage and don’t want cabinet doors that swing outwards, sliding doors can come in quite handy. You can use basic closet sliders that will conceal the items in your storage shelves. This is a great way to store tools in your garage. It keeps the area neat and tidy while also giving the garage a modern look.

Upscale Garage Cabinet

If you’re working on a tight budget but want your garage to have a more contemporary look, consider a wholesale store. They do have plenty of great cabinets at affordable prices. You can even purchase some of them piece by piece and create your own custom cabinets. This is a great way to improve the look of your garage without spending too much or putting in too much effort.

Trim Work

Who said garage cabinets need to be dull and boring? Add visual interest to your cabinets by parading some pretty trim work around the door’s perimeter. Start by measuring the cabinet door to determine how much molding you’ll need. You can also add a personal touch to your cabinets using a monogram sticker against contrasting background paint. 

Bottom Line

When your garage is your home’s main storage space, you need to incorporate different storage combinations to achieve different kinds of storage needs. Drawers and cabinets are great but don’t limit yourself to them. With the DIY garage cabinet ideas mentioned, you can make the most of your garage storage. When it comes to quick organizing tips, try hanging storage for garden tools and bikes. Don’t forget to add a rack for your work shoes as well.
