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.

Rubbermaid FastTrack Rails

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 just finished building my new 30 X 40 workshop and am in the process of building shelves and workbenches. Thanks for the workbench plans and the lumber cart is definitely next. Now I have been back and forth on what to put where and whether shelves or bins??? But It appears I just need some of these Rubbermaid systems to solve all my organizational needs!

  2. I would definitely use this system in our garage as well! So many tools….:) Thanks for the giveaway!

  3. I’m drooling!!! Tools and organization!!!! I’d tackle my garage for sure! Tools up and out of kid (and dog) reach!!! Pretty pretty please!!!

  5. Moving into a new/old house and really have nothing to get started on garage organization! This would be a great start!

  6. OMGoodness, I would use it in my garage for my tools too! My last job, of 18 years, prevented me from working much on my woodworking hobby. Since retiring, I’m beginning to get things reorganized & ready to make some Christmas presents. Having this Rubbermaid rail system would just be awesome in helping me accomplish that!

  7. This is awesome! I would use the baskets to hold all my extra cleaning supplies and kids outdoor toys. Then put all my husband crap, I mean tools, I mean prized positions 🙂

  8. My garage! It needs some major organization!! The aftermath of 1 husband and 2 sons-looks like a tornado hit and that is putting it mildly

  9. I started my own at home, home decor company. I am constantly fumbling over my husband’s tools in the garage and I desperately need some more space. This is ABSOLUTELY perfect for me!!!! I would love to win this and be on my way to a more functional work space!!!!!!!!!

  10. I would use it in my garage as well! Would bring some much needed organization to a small somewhat chaotic space!

  11. I would use the power tools to start having organization in our garage since everything is on the ground. We definitely need organization esp since we have a 3 year old son who wants to ride his bike in the garage.

  12. I would love this for my garage – it is a disaster – would love the hang all the yard tools.
