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!
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!
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 😉
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.
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!
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!
Ahhhhh it makes me so happy! You can find the system at lots of places like Home Depot, Target and online!

I would give this system to my brother for in the farm shop. He is an organizing freak and hates when things are out of place!
Would have to work on getting our lawn tools off the garage floor. We are in such a dire need for garage organization. I put the house first and neglect the garage. Out of sight out of mind isn’t working so well with winter coming up and needing to get the car actually in the garage 🙂
I would do like you did and organize all my tools in my garage!
My random hand power tools…they’re currently just shoved on a shelf 🙁
i would love to be able to store my tools somewhere other than under my saw cart. I would love to be able to use this system to store my tools out of the reach of my little boys.
Would use the system to utilize an area in the garage that is too narrow of an area to add shelving or bins. I have been trying to think of something that would work for this specific area and this systems seems like it would be perfect!
My kids toys are all over the garage, they would love a home! And my toys (tools) too 😉
I would organize all of my tools that are scattered about and if there is room left I may share with the boys in the house 🙂
Would love this to organize my tool in my garage…. 🙂
All of the things in the garage! Seriously, rakes, shovels etc…

Would love to win this, my husband loves the garage to be organized and I think I’m driving him nuts with my new woodworking hobby. I built your bench and am working today on getting the lumber up off the floor. So this would be a great help to manage my tools.
My hubby is just doing his workshop in the basement and this system would be an awesome gift I could give him. He has so much stuff!!
I would start organizing a space just for me, as I have been purchasing tools of my own, so I don’t have to borrow hubby’s all the time.
My home office needs to be reorganized – I would finally mount all of my power equipment to the wall in my space. No more piles of equipment or cords would be so stress releasing!
