10 ways - to ad style
and function to your garage
The garage is a place in the house that is
rarely though about yet it is a large space that usually
is the first to be seen, so here is your chance to remove
the clutter and make your garage look like a million
bucks...
Problem:
Hideous plain garage door
- The garage door is the
first thing you look at when you pull up to a house if
your garage door is plain than that will be the first
impression of the house.
Solution:
Change it out with an elegant carriage house
door
- Yes these doors are more
expensive than your garden variety garage door but the
increase in your home value will be dramatic. Secondly
custom wood garage doors are no more expensive then the
custom entry doors that are commonly found.
Problem: Garage
clutter
- There is nothing worse
than climbing over 3 ten speed bikes and 20 year old golf
clubs to get that box of Christmas nick nacks. The
garage is for cars and some times doubles as a work shop
not to pile up garbage.
Solution:
Lets talk storage
- over head garage storage
racks can put a fix to even the worlds most dreadful
garage clutter. bicycle hangers can be installed for easy
access and garbage can be thrown out or garage saled. Racks
come in various sizes and shapes but it is recommended that
you get something durable made from high grade coated
steel. Items can then be placed in plastic bins and marked
for quick access during the holidays or
whenever.
Problem:
Old cracked concrete floor
- what
is good about looking at an old dingy
oil stained garage floor, even worse if the slab
hasn't been post tensioned it probably has cracks the size
of the grand canyon.
Solution:
Grind, clean and coat
- First you want to grind
any uneven portions of concrete, rent the grinder from your
local hardware store. Secondly you want to power wash and
scrape a common degreaser should do the trick for those
tough oil stains. Third apply a coating to your garage
floor, garage floor coatings come in many shapes and sizes
but don't be a cheap skate on this one you will regret it.
The more expensive coatings will not flake or peel like the
cheep imposters at the hardware store.
Problem: Where the heck
are my tools
- When your looking
for that hammer or screw driver and you just cant find it
is more than frustrating, all you want to do is put that
picture up for the wife and go back to the game and half
eaten bag of cheetos.
Solution:
Handy built in wall units
- Stylish wall units can
easily be added to just about any garage so you will be
able to find your tools quickly when you need them so you
can get back before half time is over.

garage doors are insane, very modern and rare... These
guys are changing the way peope think of garage
doors..
