Living in Austin means embracing the balance between lifestyle and functionality. Whether it's outdoor gear, DIY tools, or sports equipment, most homeowners find that garage space fills up faster than expected.
At Garage Monkeyz, our job is to make sure that space works smarter, not harder. Here in Central Texas, we've helped countless homeowners turn chaotic garages into safe, streamlined environments. This list features the top 10 garage storage solutions we recommend to every homeowner in the area who wants to reclaim their garage—and make it work for them.
10 Essential Garage Storage Solutions for Homes in Austin, TX
1. Garage Shelving That Clears the Clutter
Every great storage plan starts with garage shelving. These sturdy wall-mounted systems lift items off the floor, giving everything a place without sacrificing valuable floor space. From gardening tools to bins full of seasonal decor, shelving creates the kind of order that sticks around. Our team provides optimized product selection to ensure the shelving fits both the space and the homeowner’s needs, removing the guesswork from the process.
2. Custom Garage Cabinets for a Polished Look
A garage doesn't just need to be functional—it should also look good. Our garage cabinets offer a sleek, enclosed storage option perfect for keeping tools, paints, and household extras out of sight. With coordinated designs that match your home’s style, these cabinets elevate the aesthetic while maximizing space. Every system is customized and professionally installed for seamless results.
3. Versatile Garage Slatwall Systems
Sometimes wall storage needs more flexibility than shelves or cabinets can offer. That’s where our garage slatwall systems come in. These wall-mounted panels accommodate a wide range of accessories, including hooks, baskets, and racks for everything from bikes to brooms. They help keep the garage neat, accessible, and safe—especially in high-traffic households.
4. Overhead Storage That Maximizes Vertical Space
Don’t forget the ceiling—it's prime real estate for storage. Our garage overhead storage solutions include stationary ceiling-mounted racks that keep bulky or rarely used items out of the way. Whether it’s holiday decorations, camping gear, or spare totes, we install systems that hold steady and stay organized, so your garage floor stays clear and usable.
5. 3D Design for Smart Planning
Before most installations, we create a full 3D design of the project. This preview helps clients understand exactly how each component will work within their space. From cabinet placement to overhead clearance, the design process allows for complete customization and clarity—ensuring the final result is not just functional, but flawless.
6. Garage Floor Coatings for Safety and Style
A functional garage needs a safe and durable floor. Our garage floor coatings offer both. This professional, four-step process transforms old, cracked concrete into a polished, slip-resistant surface:
- Step 1: Prepared Concrete with diamond grinding
- Step 2: Polyaspartic/Polyurea Primer Base Coat
- Step 3: Decorative Layer of Chips for texture and appeal
- Step 4: Polyaspartic/Polyurea Clear Top Coat to protect and seal
These coatings resist stains, chemicals, and UV damage, making them perfect for Austin’s climate.
7. Interlocking Garage Floor Tiles for Custom Zones
For homeowners who want flexibility or prefer a modular look, interlocking garage floor tiles are a smart solution. These tiles snap together securely, providing a high-traction surface that can handle heavy use. They’re also ideal for designating specific areas in the garage, like a home gym, workspace, or parking zone.
8. Indoor Closet Storage & Organization
Our services don’t stop at the garage. We also specialize in indoor closet storage and organization, helping clients get the most out of their interior spaces. Whether it's a master suite, hallway closet, or utility room, our systems bring structure to daily routines and reduce everyday clutter.
9. Custom Walk-In and Reach-In Closets
We design and install both walk-in closets and reach-in closets with the same attention to detail that we bring to garages. These solutions include shelving, hanging space, and built-in accessories to help homeowners stay organized and efficient, day in and day out. It’s a seamless way to carry the same level of quality and order throughout the home.
10. Closet Accessories for a Complete System
The right closet accessories can make all the difference. From slide-out baskets to jewelry trays, tie racks, and valet rods, we offer everything needed to complete a custom closet or garage cabinetry system. These thoughtful touches improve usability and elevate the final result from good to great.
