So you know that you want to get your garage organized or maybe you have even already started and you have decided that you want to use garage storage shelves to do it. Now you have to decide what kind you want to use. It is important that you ask the right questions so that you are sure to get a solution that works for your garage. What will fit in your garage? What will work best with your style and your space? Taking measurements is always an important first step. Be sure to measure height, width and depth. And be sure to take the measurements while your cars are in the garage. You want to make sure that your cars will still fit into the garage with whatever shelving system you get. In case you decide to get cabinets with closed doors, measuring how far the doors can swing out on the cabinets is also a good idea. You do not want to be hitting your car whenever you open a cabinet door. As you take measurements, also think about the style of garage storage shelves that you want. Do you want open shelving? If you are a very visual person or want to know if something is there just by looking, open shelving may be your best bet. This type of shelving makes it easy to see where everything is in your garage. If you are concerned about how your garage looks and you can easily remember where you put things, closed cabinet type shelving will likely work better for you. A word of warning about closed shelving: You need to have a good memory of where you put things in order for this to work for you or else label the cabinet doors with the contents of what is inside. It can be very frustrating to have to open all of your cabinets in order to find one thing. Finding the right garage storage shelves for your space requires that you do some planning before you buy anything. Be sure to have a clear idea of what you need before heading to the store.
