1

Sort Everything Into Categories

Pull everything out and sort into categories: tools, sports gear, gardening, automotive, holiday, and trash. Las Vegas heat makes this a good winter or early morning project.

Tip: Most households remove 20–30% of garage items as trash or donations during this step alone.

2

Measure Your Garage

Measure all four walls, ceiling height, and the footprint of any parked vehicles. Note door swings, windows, utility panels, and where the water heater or AC unit lives.

Tip: Mark your vehicle's footprint on the floor with tape — design around it, not after.

3

Decide What Goes Where

Wall-mounted systems free up floor space. Overhead racks handle bulky seasonal items. Cabinets conceal clutter and protect items from Las Vegas dust. Slatwall handles frequently accessed tools and gear.

Tip: Zone by frequency: daily-use items at eye level, seasonal items overhead.

4

Choose Your System

Cabinets offer a clean finished look. Slatwall is flexible and reconfigurable. Overhead racks maximize dead ceiling space. Most garages benefit from all three. A custom design combines them intelligently.

Tip: Las Vegas heat can warp cheap materials — choose systems rated for temperature extremes.

5

Plan for the Las Vegas Climate

Summer garage temperatures in Las Vegas regularly exceed 120°F. Choose cabinet materials and finishes rated for heat exposure. Avoid storing items sensitive to extreme heat on lower shelves near the garage door.

Tip: Our systems are specifically selected for durability in desert climates.
