Now, who doesn’t love a little garage organization??  I have been working on getting my shop revamped for the last few months.  I am slowly tackling every nook and cranny to make the most out of the space and use every inch 🙂  One of my latest projects to tackle was upgrading from the pegboard system I have been using as tool storage, to the Rubbermaid FastTrack system!  Can we talk about how much I LOVE this system??  Check out how I set it up!

Rubbermaid Garage Organization

This is my wall of tools that don’t get used as often… Minus the radio!  I love how I can hang my radio and it’s perfectly in reach all the time!

Garage Storage Idea

And the hanging baskets are perfect for holding my bagged tools and shop towels.  I also keep my Clorox wipes in there for when I spill stain and paint… Which happens fairly often 😉

Garage Wall Storage

This system has been a lifesaver.  No more stinkin’ silver pegboard hooks falling on the ground!  Game changer.  It was crazy easy to install too.

Everything runs on a rail system.  Each rail is a silver metal piece that is covered by a black plastic piece that slides over it.  The first step is attaching the silver rail to the wall.  I found and marked the studs in my wall, and then used my impact driver to drill 2.5″ screws into the studs.  A drill works perfectly for this part too!  I used my level on this part as well to make sure each rail was straight.

After attaching the silver piece, you just slide on the black plastic piece right over it.

Installing Rubbermaid FastTrack

Then, each attachment just clicks onto the rail.  SIMPLE.  AWESOME.

And, the attachments easily slide on the rails making it super easy to customize.  I love it.  Check out the rest of the space!

Garage Tool Organization

Love how these little hooks hold my jigsaws and sander…

 And remember my lumber storage rack I built?  I was using the pegboard system on the back to hold my drills and other tools I use on nearly every project.  Not anymore!

  7. Yay! Giveaway! We are building our new house and should be done by late December or middle of January. We inherited a bunch of tools a couple of months ago which I am very excited about using in the new house, but our entire budget is going into the new house and our “little one ” arriving in the next 6 weeks (currently preggo), so no room in the budget for little extras like this so it will be a LONG time until we will be able to nicely organize all our tools and gadgets in the garage. Would love to reduce the impending stress of a messy garage! Keep up the great work and I’ll keep pinning your ideas for our new house!

  8. We just purchased a new home. We are trying to organize the contents of a two car garage into a small storage shed. The Rubbermaid storage system would allow us to organize the contents of the shed quickly and efficiently so that we can find our supplies quickly. It would allow us to have a “home” for everything.

  9. This Rubbermaid system would be so helpful to my husband as he renovates our bathroom! I would love to see his tools hanging on the wall in our garage as opposed to the floor of our guest bedroom!

  10. I have been on the fence on whether to get this system or use pegboard.. this must be a sign!! I just need to get my tools off the FLOOR! Those babies don’t belong there! Gotta get them up for display (and so I don’t keep tripping over them!) 🙂

  11. We just purchased our first home and would love to organize our garage as right now it is the last space unpacked and unorganized.

  12. I’d love to use it for the barn we just built to organize my husband’s tools and my crafting supplies!! I love to craft and build things but not being able to find my tools I need drives me crazy! Would love to have this so its all nice and organized!!

  13. I would use it to organize all our tools in my new garage so that we can make *all the things* from your website (and ana-white)

  14. We have one of these up and love it! It has chairs, shovels, extension cords, and tons more on it. We could use another for getting some bikes and strollers off the valuable floor space. 🙂

  15. I’d definitely start with all my ryobi tools! After that my yard tools, the. A rack for my bikes! This system is so awesome!!
