Wall cabinets and upper storage
Wall-hung cabinets and open cubbies that put the middle of the wall to work, keep supplies at eye level and leave the floor clear.

- Fit the storage
- Free estimate
The most useful storage in a garage is often the wall above waist height, and it usually sits empty. Wall cabinets hang there, keeping paint, chemicals, tools and small gear at eye level and out of the way of the car.
We position them with heights and depths checked against door swing and reach. Closed doors keep dust off, open cubbies keep the most-used items visible, and a lockable door can protect anything you want kept from children.
You may need this if
- The wall above the bench is empty
- Paint and chemicals sit on the floor
- You trip over bins near the car
- You want a tidier look
From plan to finished.
The steps for wall cabinets & upper storage, in the order they happen.
- 01
Mark the zones
We decide which items belong at eye level and which belong higher or lower.
- 02
Check clearances
Heights and depths are tested against doors, car mirrors and the reach of the people using them.
- 03
Anchor to the structure
Cabinets are mounted into studs or masonry with the right fasteners and a level, continuous line.
- 04
Fit the interiors
Adjustable shelves, bins and dividers are added and the doors are aligned.
What you get.
Floor stays clear
Wall-hung units free the ground for parking and cleaning.
Dust-free storage
Doors keep paint, tools and small parts clean.
Lockable options
Locks help keep chemicals and tools secure.
Is it right for your garage?
A good fit when
- Workbench walls
- Chemicals and paint storage
- Cabinet runs that need height
Worth knowing
- Wall cabinets must hit studs or solid masonry, so the wall type decides the fastening method.
- Cars and ladders should be considered when choosing depth.
Good questions about wall cabinets & upper storage.
How high should wall cabinets hang?
Typically with enough clearance above the counter to work and reach comfortably. We adjust for the people using the space.
Can they hold heavy items?
Yes, within the rated capacity of the cabinet and its mounting. We specify mounting to suit the load.
Open cubbies or closed doors?
Doors keep things clean, while open cubbies suit items you grab every day. Many designs mix both.
