Garage Organization & GIVEAWAY!!

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!

  1. I would definitely use it from my craft area in our garage. My husband rebuilds vintage custom BMX bikes and I have a small space for all my craft tools that need serious organization. This would be great for his tools and gadgets and wonderful for my girly craft tools and gadgets for the perfect His and Hers organized garage.

  2. I would use the system to organize our woodworking tools. Currently auto tools, paint, stain, screws, EVERYTHING is on one big messy shelf. My projects would go so much faster if I could find my tools 🙂

  3. I am a brand new homeowner (September 12 was closing)! I grew up without a father and a hard working single mom so I have little knowledge and very little experience with homeownership! BUT, I am so so excited for this new chapter in my life and can’t wait to get organizing and making my home MY home. I would absolutely be humbled to win this organzing set for my garage because currently the little that I have is on the floor of the garage. This organizer would give me a great start to cleaning up the garage and to store my power tools and lawn care stuff!

  4. I would use the FastTrack system to organize the garage as a surprise for my husband! He’s always working to support our family and never really gets a chance to clean up his tools and organize them they way he would like to. We bought our first home last year and he has always dreamed of having his own garage! Now he has it but never an opportunity to “play” in it! 🙂

  5. Definitely yard tools. And I have a couple of drills and jigsaws that would be great hanging, too!

  6. Organizing!!??? Where do I start? Lol! Ok for real. I love how easy this system looks! I wuld use it to keep my drills, and nail guns etc, in a more handy spot rather then tucked in drawers… uggg… or worse yet, laying around getting in the way of my creativity! Such a pain always opening a drawer to get what I want. Hanging handy on the wall, by Rubbermaid!? Grab n go baby!!

  7. Tools, toys and more tools and more toys!! Take back my garage so the hickory nut storm doesn’t destroy my car!

  8. We would use it to organize power tools, yard tools, and other things that need organization in our messy garage!
