We allocate space for summer cottage inventory in different places: in the barn, closet, extension. Often for the owner, these rooms are a secret room with unknown contents. We offer 6 solutions for storing garden accessories. Our ideas will help you use non-traditional places, use space wisely, and conveniently place things
Suburban economy implies the availability of different tools and devices for work. It is always difficult to navigate in pantries where things are important for the gardener. Everything is located here at once: gardening tools, fertilizers, old furniture, power tools, spare parts for cars, leftover building materials, etc. Many people have problems in finding the right thing, then nervous "excavations" begin. This is due to the fact that not everyone knows convenient ways to place "dacha wealth".
1. Wall storage system
This arrangement is suitable for organizing various items (fishing rods, sledges, tires, shovels, bicycles, etc.). The design is likened to a multi-level shelf, with fasteners, hooks, shelves and clamps.
A stand is made of durable plastic or metal corner / profile. It is located in any non-residential premises: utility block, storage room, dressing room, veranda, basement, garage, barn. The height and length of the structure correspond to the size of the selected wall. The nature of the fasteners depends on the material of the building. Your "man-made wall" can be transformed and has interchangeable components. For weighty items, strong mounts are used.
2. Storage lockers
Regardless of the number of tools, you can make it accessible and in the right order. By installing a wardrobe with sliding doors, it will be possible to place not only small change there, but also large objects, including a chainsaw and a trimmer. Accessories for small things are made in the closet.
Many people like the options for wardrobes on casters. They can be moved and, if necessary, compact the space by storing the tool for the winter. Each owner chooses the interface of the cabinets for himself. For this, the height of the shelves is adjusted, various hanging parts and hooks are made. Cabinet racks are available in different sizes.
Small items such as a grafting knife, markers for beds, strings, gloves are best kept in organizers placed in the closet.
3. Garden toilet or storage room
An outdoor toilet is perfect for tools. With a fairly small modification, you will have an ideal place for shovels, hoes, rakes and small equipment (hoes, scoops, rippers, etc.).
Shelves are made on the walls of the booth, hooks are nailed (even on the door). Here, containers with liquid fertilizers, bags of fertilizers, gloves, pruners, garden shears, etc. will be well placed. Having made a vertical stand, you will perfectly install forks, shovels, and fan rakes. Sometimes the toilet is lengthened for this.
4. Shields for tools
Wall-mounted “showcases” for instrument placement, ideal for the forgetful and those who want to “have everything at hand”. This arrangement is beneficial for a generous host. When a neighbor borrows a screwdriver, the empty space will be a great reminder.
Shields can be installed in rooms of different sizes. They are made of wood or metal, options for the type of lathing are possible. There are numerous holes on the iron surface, into which fasteners are inserted. The location changes structurally in accordance with the dimensions of the tool. On a wooden plane, you can do with screwed hooks driven in nails.
5. Place for a lawn mower
Landowners often have “heavy artillery” such as a lawn mower, walk-behind tractor, mini-tractor. For storage, such an arsenal requires a lot of space. Such units should not be placed at the entrance to any room, otherwise there will be difficulties with movement.
The best solution would be to build a small garage building. It is not necessary to allocate space next to the house. Choose a shady corner of waste land where nothing is planted. Many people make such a garage behind the house / shed, near the toilet, attach it to the doghouse.
6. Sealed containers
In addition to the tool, the business summer resident has many jars of reagents, varnishes, paint residues, building mixtures. To this list are added insecticides, fertilizers, spray formulations. Many substances give off toxic fumes, so if the original packaging is not available, they must be placed in sealed containers.
For storing such "good" it is better to make racks. The most toxic material should be placed on the highest shelves. If you store drugs outside the original packaging, be sure to sign the expiration date with a marker. As well as storage conditions, and other information important to you.
