    Wall, ceiling, and floor color choices for small-ish garage.

    As long as the floors are already done, I would also agree with Crowbarman55. Spend the money on the ceiling, walls and improved lighting if needed. 100% go with a white color for the ceiling and also a bright color for the walls.

    New 32x48 build: What items did you overlook that you now regret

    A platform lift for the mezzanine storage area and big enough to handle an engine if necessary. Easier than carrying everything up by hand.

    Need to hang tire rack, but stud is not in the location

    Looks great! Uni-Strut also makes a plastic closure strip and endcaps to make it look all pretty.

    Need to hang tire rack, but stud is not in the location

    The 13/16 works the best since Uni-Strut has fasteners (nuts) that have a nylon wing on them so all you have to do is place them in the slot and twist. The deeper strut allows for these fasteners to slid over and past the bolt heads anchoring the strut to the wall or all-thread hangers, along...

    Signed the papers. 28X64x10

    I do agree with CombatNinja with the 40' rule as that is what we use when designing Self Storage buildings. Though my parents house only has 4 down spouts for a split-level ranch. Two only take from the forward facing gable, lets call that the North end and then the other two take the rest of...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Our company installed one and they ended up having to install a check valve on the discharge copper line. Granted they had to run it up through the roof of the shop which was about 25'

I will be mounting to the ceiling instead to hoist a 6'x6' platform for my two 12' kayaks and gear. This can also be seen as a motorized version of the RACOR lift that is no longer available in...

    Overhead garage storage?

    After buying my first Racor lift I knew I would need one for my kayaks. So I went to look for one and like you said, out of stock, unavailable and nowhere to be found. I did find one through Facebook Marketplace. If you have the time just keep an eye out on sites like this, or maybe...

    Gladiator Garage Cabinets

    Back in the day of Sears, I had also gotten a couple of the Premier 30"x30" cabinets, hammered finish with the gray tread plate doors. Hung them up in my garage and then went back when the were on sale and bought 4 more! Of course back then they were $99 retail and I knew the employee so she...
