Custom Garage Cabinets in Phoenix: What Will You Be Storing

As we covered previously, garage cabinets are the best and easiest solutions for a crowded garage. Garage storage cabinets are an affordable and secure means to store the workshop tools. Garage storage cabinets help to convert a messy garage into a more useful work space, reducing clutter and providing easy access of stored items.

This will give you an idea on how much storage space you need. You’ll need a tall, vertical unit for baseball bats, skis, shovel, and such. You’ll also need a smaller unit for gardening tools, small hand tools, and electric tools. Let’s look at the different types of material used in the making of garage cabinets.

Metals

Nearly every brand of metal storage units is made of three types of steel: aluminum, mid-grade steel, and high-grade steel. Each of these types of metal offers you something slightly different.

Aluminum

This metal is used primarily for indoor storage, mostly because it is such a lightweight material. It is resistant to rust, has durability, and can be painted in many different colors. Most finishes are anodized, which means to coat the metal with a protective oxide by making the metal an anode of an electrolytic cell. It is important to note that aluminum is a soft metal and will not protect from scratches and dents.

Mid-Grade Steel

This metal is found in storage components that you find at your local department store. These elements can be quite affordable and are readily available. Most of these units will have a powder coat finish. While decorative and functional, most of these items are single wall construction types, meaning you only get one sheet of steel per wall.

High-Grade Steel

The quality of steel will probably be the highest grade of metal you can find. The companies who use this steel pull out all the stops when building their units. Most will use a powder coat finish, double wall steel construction, and heavy duty hardware and hinges.

Melamine Garage Cabinets in Phoenix:  A Different Alternative

Wood cupboards can be separated into three categories: mass produced, custom built, or built to order. Mass-produced units are available at your local department store. These are generally made from particle board or plywood, and finished with a laminate or melamine, two different types of protective covering. Your local wood shop or a carpenter will be the source for these. The beauty of using a local shop is that you can have exactly what you want-a completely custom system built to your exact specifications. You can also choose which wood you want, as well as the finish, whether it be natural, stain, paint, or melamine.

Melamine garage cabinets in Phoenix are tough, stain resistant, and capable of being customized.
