Given Up on 3rd Bay - New Shelving Installed

[Jason Edge]

I have tried to keep at least 2 bays in my 3 bay garage open and still get to all of my tools, packing materials and parts I keep in the main downstairs garage area. I have given up on parking a 3rd car in there, and instead of just keeping things stacked in the 3rd bay, decided it was time to get some decent shelving.  I had built a 4' x 6' work table some time and also store items under it, but it was not doing the job alone!

I looked around and found a commercial grade 2' x 6.5' x 6.5' steel shelving with an 8000 lb capacity (2000 lb per shelf) sold at Home Depot to be my best option. I also decided to buy 4 of them and bolt 2 together to make a 4' wide shelf to butt up to the 4' x 6' table on each end.  In my two main parts sheds I had built heavy duty wood shelving but that was time consuming and these are easy to take down and transport as needed.

I have posted pictures of the shelf below. I paid $179 each for them back on Oct 11, but looks like HD has raised the price up to $196.  Click Here for a link to check them out if interested in really decent HD shelving.
