I live in a tiny little bungalow in the heart of the city, and that obviously provides me with very little garage space when I need to get to my handy work. Our garage is miniscule to say the least, with just barely enough room to fit our single car in, plus a little bit of extra room for working on home projects. I am a dedicated “do it yourself-er”, so I really wanted to find a way to be able to do some tinkering in my garage. After all, is that not what drives a man to buy a house in the first place? The ability to tinker to his heart’s content?

Aluminum Wall Mounted Folding Shelves

The solution to my desire for tinkering was right in front of my eyes the entire time, right there on my computer screen. Stacks and Stacks had what I consider to be the ultimate in space saving work shelving: the aluminum wall-mounted folding shelf.  The shelf is super lightweight because of its aluminum construction, weighing in at a meager five pounds. On the flip side, it is able to hold an astonishing 75 pounds of weight! The surface area of the shelf when folded out is approximately 45.5″W x 20.25″D. Now I have enough space to fix remote controls, garbage disposals, and more, plus I have room to get started on my birdhouse building hobby that I have always wanted to get off the ground!
When I am done using this metal wall shelf, I simply fold it down. This unique folding ability allows for enough space to get into my car and pull it out of the garage. When folded down the shelf only sticks out about five inches, leaving plenty of room to move around in the garage. You can find this shelf and others like it over at StacksandStacks.com.

If you’re like me, you have a heavy-duty kitchen, ready for all recipes, dishes and situations, with plenty of room for prep and lots of pots and pans. It’s a busy environment with plenty of need for some tough, REALLY tough shelves. Well, I’ll give you some sage advice: invest in the toughest shelves you can afford. The tougher the better. Because your kitchen is going to become a whirlwind tornado of activity and bowls and splattering of food and cans and boxes of raw material (if you cook at home). And equipment, lord knows you’re going to need shelves for your kitchen equipment. Well, that equipment is heavy, so you’re going to need the best, and the toughest. How about a wire shelving unit that can handle 4000 pounds? That’s right, 4000. Four THOUSAND.

This Heavy Gauge Shelving Kit - 4000 lb. Capacity is a triumph. I found it over at StacksAndStacks.com while looking for new and innovated shelves. Mission accomplished. It holds 800 lbs (evenly distributed) per shelf! This Shelf Unit is tougher than anything I’ve found in a Garage Shelf, or a Closet Shelf, or a Wall Shelf, or even a Bookshelf. It’s one tough customer. But wait, now that I think about it, it COULD work for them as well! The metal shelves would be great for the garage for tools and paint cans, pitch-perfect in the pantry, and lovely in the living room for your tv and dvds! Each kit comes with five 18″D wire shelves, which are fully height adjustable, and four 72″ poles. 4000 pounds. Man alive, that’s a tough shelving system.

The Heavy Gauge Shelving Kit - 4000 lb. Capacity. Highest Possible Recommendation.
