Proper instrument storage is no less important than the availability of the tools themselves. This can be confirmed by each wizard. The storage conditions provide not only the preservation but also the availability of devices and devices. There is no need to explain how important it is that the required thing is always in place and on hand, so as not to waste precious time on the digging of a scrap metal in search of the necessary device since this is the case with randomly scattered instruments. The last storage is organized by each wizard depending on the number of tools, frequency of use, availability of space and mobility requirements.
Compactness and mobility
The simplest and most commonly used device is the best socket organizer. Such are in almost every home – large or small, for every taste. If it’s about storing a simple home treasure – a pair of screwdrivers, a hammer, a splitter key, and some other little things – then the perfect way to store – socket organization.
Such devices are compact, compact. They are divided into sections, which allows arranging even such details as nuts, nails. And for screwdrivers, keys, drill there will be a compartment with special fasteners – the tool will be in perfect order, and for the drawer, you can easily find a cozy place even in the hallway of a small apartment. Moreover, the boxed tool is very mobile: take and go, which may be easier and more convenient.
Organization of space in the garage
How to organize sockets: many are not limited to the minimum set of tools for home and prefer to have an extended case of tools and gadgets. As a rule, a garage serves as a storage place and it is inappropriate in this case to buy a lot of small mobile boxes. In such conditions, storage in a closed location only complicates the availability of the tool. Therefore, in the organizer for sockets, only a minimal set of tools is kept, often used in everyday life.
What to do with the bulk of the tool that you do not fit into one socket organization. For it is possible to make special modules in the garage with your own hands. But first of all, we must think carefully. Each thing should have its place, and it is determined to depend on the demand for this instrument and the frequency of use.
Part of the tool can be hung on the wall. Even a fixed board with large nails clustered in it can become an excellent socket organization for saws, blades, jigsaws, planes, and spaghetti. Often, as a fixture can be found in the garage with their own hands, modules are made from the remains of treated wood – bars. They are fastened on the wall so that they serve as an emphasis on which tools are suspended. This storage system has its advantages: this design is light and effective.
The instrument panel, located directly next to the workbench or the main working area, is a good option for solving the job vacancy from unnecessary items and ensuring the availability of the necessary devices. A shelf for this purpose will not fit: it is worse over the examination of objects. And it stands out over the workbench of the regiment is a danger: with any careless motion, you can hit on her head. The instrument shield may be the ideal option if the gun is a bit and they are used only in the garage. This is a fairly common system for storing tools. And often it is located in the garage, made by their own hands. The reason for this is the simplicity of construction, ease of use and minimal cost.
But not all devices and gadgets can hang around that they need to fold. To do this, it would be good to build shelves, they can be placed around the perimeter if allows the area of the garage. And if you make a few rows, placing them one above the other, then this will increase the useful storage space for times. The most functional shelves, located at the level of the eye or a little lower. That is, to store frequently used spare parts and devices, it is preferable to use only those rows of shelves that are directly insight and which are not difficult to access. On the shelves above and below optimally position the tools in boxes and boxes, pre-objects should be carefully sorted.
The toolbox, located very low and overlapped by other shelves, also refers to hard-to-reach places, so it’s best to place a little detail neatly laid out in a labeled socket organization for storing tools. The best option for a power tool is a cabinet. This way allows you to protect the devices from dust, and electric cords that have the feature of unwinding will not hang from the shelf and interfere with access to other tools.
A tool rack is a good alternative to the cabinet. Of course, dusting on racks occurs on all sides. But such openness also has advantages: a wonderful review of all items located on the shelves, and free access to them from any side. And you can also make a rack for the tool with your own hands, it’s much easier than building a cabinet.
It is important to remember that the shelving takes quite a lot of space. That is, such a way of storing things in the garage can only afford the lords of large areas.
Flat metal modules
Storing the tool in the garage on shelves and in boxes is gradually remaining in the past. Modern garages are increasingly equipped with more convenient constructions, which occupy less space, flat wall modules serve as a good example. The garage, used for its intended purpose, namely the storage of a vehicle, implies that the maximum of its space should remain free, that is, it is not particularly possible to put up shelves and cabinets from the wall to the center. Here, in this case, a wall socket organization will be useful.
In the manufacture of wall socket organizations for storing gadgets and equipment, a metal panel is used. The perforation of the metal panel has a practical purpose: this technique will not only reduce the weight of the structure itself but also allows you to do without any problems and special efforts mounting fixing devices.
The easiest device is hinged hooks. The last one bend is fixed to the hole of the panel, and the second one is used directly as hanging for the tool. Wall systems perfectly cope with the task of organizing the storage of equipment and devices, while taking the minimum space. Excellent combination of functionality and optimal use of the useful area.
Flat metal modules, for the manufacture of which the panel is perforated, are especially relevant for workshops. To place such a module is not only near the wall. Equipped parallel to each other vertical system storage tools, which are pushed by guides, fixed on the floor and ceiling – an excellent opportunity to group the tool for its intended purpose.
With such an approach to storing a tool in the workshop, the set required to perform a particular type of work is pre-formed and easily accessible, it is enough to just push the desired panel.
Indispensable things
In a large area of the workshop, a mobile container for storing tools will be indispensable. Equipped with easily lockable wheels, blocking the free, arbitrary movement of the socket organization, the latter can be delivered quickly and effortlessly in a horizontal plane to any point in the workshop or a repair area outside. Such a socket organization has a toolbox for storing tools that is easy to distribute, and it also has a flat working surface that allows you to leave tools that are used in the process.
Such a device can be arranged according to the principle of a suitcase, ie equipped with two wheels, a support plate, and a comfortable handle. It moves under a slope, which allows you to easily overcome encountered in the way curbs and ledges. For convenience, the container is also divided into sections: each separate toolbox is easily removed, allowing unrestricted access to a specific set of devices.
Everyone for himself determines how to keep his good and what devices to store the tools he needs. There is no doubt that the instrument loves the order. Even if there is no free money for the socket organization to purchase modern devices, it is entirely possible to make devices for storing tools with one’s own hands.
