Wall Organization

Walls are the most underused storage in most garages. Pegboard, slatwall, track systems and hooks hang tools, bikes, ladders and yard gear so the floor stays clear.

Common questions

How do I hang bikes in a garage?

Use wall-mounted or ceiling hooks rated for the bike's weight, fixed into studs or joists, and leave clearance for car doors.

Is slatwall better than pegboard?

Slatwall holds heavier gear and hooks stay put. Pegboard is cheaper and ideal for hand tools above a bench.
