Joined up here looking for ideas to maximize the storage and utility of our attached garage. It is a 2 car garage, but there isn't much room on either side. Since we have a crawlspace, one side is taken up by stairs to the inside and the water heater. Other side has some shelves the previous owner built.
Plans include a coating on the floor and HOPEFULLY some kind of work bench.
But we've talked about building a detached garage to house my tools and serve as a 'shop' for my jeep and truck. This detached garage would also have an upstairs living/storage area, a greenhouse attached on the back, and a patio to the side for a swimming pool we are planning on adding. So my ideas for this garage would include better space utilization for both hand and power tools, some kind of work bench, and a provision for 240 for welding equipment should I go that route. If we go ahead with the pool, I could see the pumps, etc being in that area.
So, basically, I'm a blank slate here looking at some of the incredible ideas and implementations you folks have done and going to unceremoniously steal those that worked and will work for us.
But I'm sure I'll have questions along the way.
I look forward to learning a lot and hopefully being able to provide input in return!
Happy Holidays!
