Every garden needs tending — mowing grass, pruning shrubs, fertilising plants. These activities require the use of specific tools and equipment. It is difficult to store them at home, as it is simply inconvenient, but also makes it difficult to keep them in order. Therefore, a better choice is to create a separate storage space in the garden. Which option can you choose? Which variants are available?
Garden tools and their proper storage: why is it so important?
By storing your tools properly, you first of all guarantee tidiness in your garden and at home. You can also be sure that when you need them, they will be waiting there for you in the right place. Providing the mower, garden shears or other useful tools with appropriate storage conditions also extends their service life. Exposed to moisture or mechanical damage, they can break down faster and cause additional expenses.
Garden tools storage — ideas for a modern and well-organised garden
If you already know how important it is to store your tools properly, you can move on to the next step, which is choosing the right solution for your garden. What options are currently available on the market? What are their characteristics?
Garden shed
A garden shed or a wooden tool house will be perfect for storing garden equipment or accessories you use to take care of your relax zone. They will also work well as a storage room for bikes, foldable swimming pools in winter or accessories needed to take care of water quality. You can opt for a structure of the right size and layout to fit the amount of space you have.
A garden shed or a wooden tool house looks aesthetically pleasing, so they will not negatively affect the appearance of your garden. You can choose their colour, type and design of the door or, for example, the type of roofing (flat, multi-pitch). In any case, these options will provide your items with protection against wind, rain, excessive sunlight or extremely low temperatures.
At BHB Bertsch Holzbau you will find a wide selection of wooden sheds in two systems — modular and made of wooden profiles. In any case, the manufacturer offers top-quality constructions that are robust, durable, capacious and made of high-quality wood. By investing in them, you will create a storage place for the things you need.
Garage
The garage, whether of wooden, tin or brick construction, will also work very good for storing things. At the same time, it will provide protection for your car from the elements. However, it is very important to choose the right size of the structure. Otherwise, it may not fit anything else than a medium-sized car there.
BHB Bertsch Holzbau, a manufacturer of sheds and tool houses, also offers wooden garages. Their dimensions and parameters are in each case adapted to the customers’ needs. You can opt for a structure with one, two or more parking spaces to make sure it can accommodate your cars, tools, accessories and bikes.
Suspended systems
These systems can be installed primarily in garages, but also in technical rooms. You can choose an option designed to organise and store long or short tools depending on what you need. What is important, suspended systems are rather used in high rooms. There is not enough space for them in the low ones.
Proper storage of garden tools is very important for their service life and proper organisation. However, it requires choosing specific technologies: tailored to your needs and budget assumptions. A tool shed/house, garage, other wooden structures or suspended systems are options that are definitely worth considering in your garden.
How to choose the best garden storage?
When choosing the best garden storage solution for your needs, consider the following factors to ensure you select an option that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing:
Available space and storage needs: Assess the space you have in your garden and the volume of items you need to store. For extensive storage needs, a garden shed or wooden tool house is ideal. These can accommodate larger equipment like lawn mowers and bicycles, and can be customized in size and layout to fit your specific space.
Aesthetic considerations: Choose a storage option that complements the look of your garden. Wooden structures like sheds and tool houses offer aesthetic flexibility with options for different colors, door designs, and roofing styles. These can enhance the garden’s appearance while providing sturdy protection against the elements.
Protection and durability: Ensure the storage solution you choose offers adequate protection from weather conditions such as wind, rain, and extreme temperatures. Wooden sheds and garages are robust and provide excellent shelter for your tools and equipment, extending their lifespan by safeguarding them from moisture and mechanical damage.
