Storage Locker/Cabinet recommendations
 
I've been looking at Gladiator brand. Anyone have experience with these? My goal is to have lockers and cabinets mounted off the floor.

Sam, I have used many types of cabinets in my F body Man Cave. Here is one option. I kept looking for these on Sale, in store special or coupon etc. I think I popped at $99 each. At that price point I was going to start look at other options. They are Sears Black/platinum with enamel finish Pre-drilled mounting holes Keyed internal locking system Measures 28" H x 28" W x 12" D Assembly required, Model # Model # 10135. I chose black to match my checkered wall stripe.

My installation

I made sure to install a header at the correct height behind the sheet rock, as I carefully planned out the garage layout for TEN years prior to building it for my 50th Bday gift. I like them, including the lock & latch, clean look, steel construction, adjustable shelf. They have a variety of configurations. BTW I have a Gladiator cabinet that I found years ago for 49$ discounted @ Lowes and it is just as nice, I just grew to prefer the clean (non Diamond plate Look) but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,<Next Post>

Sam,

I installed these this past summer. They are Saber Cabinets out of Nevada. They are great quality and were pretty simple to install. They are off the floor which is what I really wanted. www.sabercabinets.com

My garage has a 30x40 footprint, not a pretty boy shop, I work there and it even looks like a pig sty at times. One of the best things I did years ago was build this bench with casters on it so I would not tie up the wall space and it has been great being able to move it where it is needed, and I use it to stand on when changing out flo lamps too. It is about 40&quot; x 7' long. And note the stationary wheels are under the vise end.

Sam also made a great point when he said he would like to keep his cabinets of the flore. My building is framed on 2 courses of 8&quot; block and that left me a couple inches of exposed sill on the inside. I have only two cabinets on the floor.
When it is time to wash and hose down the floor not much is in my way.

Here are the cabinets I chose. They are by NewAge Products and are their performance series. They are fairly well build and a great value for the price.
