How to organise your workshop
Workshop tool organisation
Tools are the most likely items to clutter your workshop so it's important to create a dedicated place for tool storage.
Try and make the most of wall space by mounting a tool rack on the wall with VELCRO® Brand Heavy Duty Tape. It's a great way to create extra storage space and make sure your tools are always on hand for when you need them.
Tools that you need to use regularly, like spirit levels, can be stuck to the wall with VELCRO® Brand Stick On Tape that make them easy to store away and peel off when you need them.
Workshop safety equipment
Safety equipment, like first aid kits and fire extinguishers, is an essential requirement in any workshop and for your own safety, it's important that it's easy to reach at all times.
To make your first aid kit easy to reach at all times, fix it to the wall with VELCRO® Brand Stick On Tape. You'll be able to peel it off easily whenever you need it and stop it cluttering you workshop when it's not in use. (You can also use this tape to stick signage to the wall).
Fire extinguishers are a legal requirement for any workshop so to keeps yours in an easy-to-grab location, fix it to the wall with VELCRO® Brand Heavy Duty Tape that can hold up to 7kg per 50mm x 100mm strip.
