What is modular storage?
Simply put, modular storage units are units that slot together in a variety of different ways. They can offer a combination of shelving units, wall units, drawer units and more (depending on the brand) and can be configured to meet your requirements.
So whatever space you have available in your garage or workshop, and whatever it’s dimensions, you can build a bespoke storage solution that will fit neatly and answer all of your needs.
What options are available?
Halfords
Our Halfords-branded modular storage shelving units are a great entry-level option and the range includes a freestanding rectangular shelving unit, a freestanding corner shelving unit, and a wall unit with hooks.
The shelving units are boltless, which means they’re quick and easy to assemble at home, and the modular design allows you to combine the units in whatever way you wish and simply slot them together. You can even split the rectangular units into two smaller units and position them side-by-side to create an instant workbench.
There are two variations of the rectangular shelving unit available, one with a capacity of 175kg per shelf and the other with a capacity of 265kg per shelf, so you don’t have to worry about overloading them. Plus their affordable prices mean you can construct the ideal storage solution without breaking the bank.
Sealey
Another option is a Sealey garage storage set, which has been designed with ease of use and practicality in mind. While the sets are larger than the Halfords-branded range, they’re still modular in design and can be combined with one another.
Depending on what design you choose, they can include features such as floor-to-ceiling cabinets, drawer units, wall cabinets, floor cupboards, worktops and handy back panels with built-in holes for your tools.
They’re tough and durable, with a hammered metal finish, and some models offer a choice of wooden or stainless steel worktops. The drawer handles and pulls are aluminium, while the drawers have ball bearing drawer slides and the wall cabinet doors have gas struts for easy opening.
