Utility rooms
Shelving that leaves the equipment reachable
A utility room holds equipment that has to be reached for service, so the shelving goes around it, not in front of it.
Water heater
Shelving stays off the front and top of the tank, so the controls, the valve and the drain can be reached. The walls on either side can hold shelves.
Air handler and filter
The filter slot and the service panel stay open, so a filter change does not mean emptying a shelf.
Electrical panel
The wall space in front of the panel is left clear from floor to ceiling.
Shutoff valves and cleanouts
Water shutoffs and plumbing access points stay visible and in reach.
Laying out a storage room
A storage room works when you can see what is on each shelf and pull it out without moving three other things. Shallower shelves suit paint, cleaning supplies and small tools, which get lost at the back of a deep shelf.
Keep the lowest shelf off the floor so a mop can reach under it, and leave one open wall section for tall things like a ladder, a folded table or a rolled rug.
Utility rooms in a new house
In a house under construction, the utility room shelving goes in after the water heater, the air handler and the panel are in their final places, so each shelf can be set around them. Builders who want the room ready for the buyer can have one wall of shelving put in and the rest left open for whatever the owner stores.
Odd spaces
Storage spaces that are not a plain square room
A long, narrow storage closet
Shelves on one long wall and an open aisle along the other, so boxes at the far end can still be reached.
A utility room that is also the laundry
The shelf over the washer and dryer is planned with the water heater and filter access in mind, so one does not block the other.
An attic hatch in the ceiling
Shelving stops short of the hatch, so the pull-down ladder or the opening stays usable.
A storage room off the garage
Deep shelves for bins and seasonal gear, with the doorway to the garage kept clear for carrying things through.
A low duct or beam
Where ductwork or a beam crosses the ceiling, the top shelf on that wall is set below it.
Why wire
What wire shelving does in a utility room
Air moves through
Open wire lets air pass around stored supplies rather than trapping it under a solid board.
Light reaches the lower shelves
A single ceiling light in a small room reaches the bottom shelves through the ones above.
Labels show from below
Box labels on a high shelf can be read from the floor through the wire.
Businesses
Back rooms and supply rooms for a business
A back room follows the same planning as a storage room at home, with more people going in and out.
Stock by the case
Full cases on low, deep shelves near the door they come in through.
Supplies used daily
Cleaning products, paper goods and small stock at chest height, where staff can grab them without a step stool.
Records and seasonal things
Archive boxes and seasonal displays on the top shelves.
A cart aisle
Facing runs leave an aisle wide enough for a hand truck or a rolling cart.
A janitor closet
A shelf above the mop sink, clear of the faucet, and floor space for a mop bucket on wheels.
A break room supply closet
Shelves spaced for cups, paper towels and coffee supplies by the case.
Garage
Adding the garage
Garage shelving has to leave the overhead door, its tracks and the opener alone.
Side walls below the track
Shelving sits under the horizontal track, with lifting room above the top shelf.
Back wall below the opener
Shelves stop below the opener, and its release cord hangs where you can grab it.
Front wall left bare
The wall around the opening holds the vertical tracks and springs, so nothing goes there.
Car door room
Where a car parks, a shallower shelf leaves space for the door to open.
Inside the house
Closets, pantries and laundry rooms
Closets
A shelf and rod in a reach-in, or long and short hanging around a walk-in.
Pantries
Levels spaced for cans, boxes and small appliances.
Laundry rooms
A shelf over the washer and dryer, clear of the lid, with a rail for hanging.
Fixed or adjustable in a storage room
Fixed shelving is installed at set heights and suits a utility room that will hold the same supplies for years. Adjustable shelf-and-rail suits a storage room whose contents change: when new totes are taller than the old ones, a shelf moves up on its rails instead of the whole run being redone.
