Wire shelving

Garage and Utility Shelving in the Florida Panhandle

Wire shelving for garage walls, laundry rooms, utility rooms and storage rooms, laid out around the door, the machines and the load.

Shelving past the closets

Big Bend Services, Inc. supplies and installs wire shelving on garage walls and in laundry rooms, utility rooms and storage rooms across the Florida Panhandle, for homes, new builds and commercial buildings. Closets and pantries have their own page.

Call (850) 819-6031 or send the form with each space you want shelved and what will go on the shelves, especially anything heavy like paint, tools or cases of water. Note anything already on or near those walls: the opener, a window, a water line, a breaker panel or outlets. For a garage, say how many cars park inside. For a new house, builders can put this shelving on the same booking as the closets and pantry.

Laundry rooms

Laundry room shelving over the washer and dryer

Shelving over the machines has to leave room to work: a top-loading washer needs clearance for its lid to open all the way, and the dryer vent and water hookups behind the machines need to stay reachable. Tell us whether the washer is a top loader or a front loader.

  • Shelf over the machines

    For detergent, dryer sheets, stain remover and a basket or two.

  • Room to load

    The lowest shelf over a front loader sits high enough that you can bend to load it without hitting your head.

  • Hanging rail

    A rail for shirts that come out of the dryer on hangers and for clothes that need to air dry.

  • Beside the machines

    Where the room has wall space next to the washer or dryer, a taller run can hold cleaning supplies and spare towels.

Garage walls

Garage shelving that stays clear of the door

When a garage door opens, it rolls up and back along its tracks toward the ceiling, and the opener hangs from the ceiling near the middle. Garage shelving is placed where the door, its tracks and the opener keep their full clearance.

The other limit is the car. Shelf depth and height are set so there is still room to park and to open the car doors. Garage storage shifts with the seasons, so adjustable shelf-and-rail suits a wall that will be rearranged, while one long shelf over a workbench can be fixed.

  • Upper levels

    Holiday decorations, winter clothes and camping gear, which come down once or twice a year.

  • Reach height

    Oil, washer fluid, car wash supplies, sprayers and potting soil, where you can reach them without a step stool.

  • Low levels

    Balls, helmets, coolers and fishing tackle, low enough for everyone in the house to put back.

  • Heavy things

    Paint cans, bags of fertilizer and toolboxes on the levels at waist height or below.

  • Back wall

    The wall the car faces can take taller runs and more levels when the car stops short of it.

  • Over a workbench

    Shelves above the bench for the tools and hardware you use at it, high enough to clear your head when you lean in.

  • Around a window

    Runs stop short of a garage window so it can still open and let light in.

  • By the door into the house

    Cases of paper towels, drinks and pet food, where they are carried in and out.

Utility and storage rooms

Utility rooms and storage rooms

A utility room holds equipment as well as storage. Shelving goes on the walls around the water heater, the air handler or the electrical panel, and the space in front of that equipment stays open so it can be reached and serviced. The same goes for a water heater or panel that sits in the garage.

A storage room is the opposite. Its whole job is holding things, so shelving can run along every open wall. In a commercial storage room, long runs can line the walls with an aisle left clear down the middle for carts and people.

  • Household supplies

    Paper towels, cleaning products, light bulbs and spare filters in one place.

  • Seasonal and keepsake boxes

    Labeled boxes on levels you can read from the doorway.

  • Flashlights and first aid

    Flashlights, batteries, bottled water and a first aid kit kept together on one level where anyone can find them.

  • Household tools

    A toolbox, extension cords and spare parts for the house on one shelf, so they are not spread across three rooms.

  • Pet supplies

    Food, litter and leashes on a low shelf near where they are used.

  • Commercial storage and back rooms

    Stock, supplies and paper goods for offices, shops and other businesses.

FAQ

Garage and utility shelving questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

How much weight will garage shelves hold?
That depends on the shelving, the layout and the span between supports.
Can shelving go above the garage door?
Only where there is room above the door, its tracks and the springs when the door is fully open. If that space is taken by the open door, the side and back walls are used instead.
Will my storage bins fit on the shelves?
Measure one bin of each size you use and send its height and depth. The shelf levels are spaced from those numbers. If you are still buying bins, one size throughout lets every level be spaced the same.
Can shelves go over a chest freezer?
Yes, set high enough that the freezer lid opens all the way.
