Five Useful Zones You Can Create in Your Garage
The garage is often the most extensive “room” of a house, but it is very coordinated. If you are embarrassed to start with the garage door in front of your neighbors, then you should consider the following plan to organize your garage and divide it into six useful areas. You can create your best garage storage, an entertainment area, and many more.
Let’s pretend for a moment that you have already completed the most difficult part of organizing your garage. You have washed it completely. You have thrown away or sold everything except what you use and want. You are ready to put things back in place, and you are determined not to let your garage fall into chaos and rubble. As in any large region, the best way to get organized (and stay organized) is to divide the area into smaller classes. Each area is used for a specific purpose.
Transition Area
The first place that you can create from your garage is a transition area. Your transition area (usually near the house’s front door) would be the space provided to hang your coats and boots, which can be used as a storage space for parcels, groceries, or mail when the door is open. This area can be easily crossed from the inside to the outside and vice versa.
Quick Access Area
Then you determine the need-it-now area in the garage. This area (which is also usually located near the front door) is ideal for keeping overflows in the family and provides quick and easy access to all frequently used items: pet food and leashes, extra soft drinks, paper towels, and small appliances, and a place for recyclable materials.
Zone #3
Zone #3 is considered as the area along your garage side-walls. Long, broad and thin objects such as rakes, brooms, shovels, and other tools can be stored here. A wall or slit panel system that uses numerous pens, baskets, and tool holders makes this often underused area useful.
Large Item Storage Area
The storage of large objects is another area in your garage. Use this place for softer items and things that could be stored for months on the road – for example, snow tires and camping equipment. Frequently used objects are placed near the door. Things like sports equipment and bicycles belong here.
Hobby Area
The final area you can make in your garage is your entertainment zone or hobby area. Make this the heart of your hobby, so you can work on what you like best. Whether you work in the garden or on fish, work with wood, or work on your car, you could create a perfect place in your garage to organize your equipment and tools. While most of your garage is dedicated to storage, this area is reserved for you. Now you have areas, and you have an arch.
