Rubbermaid FastTrack System: A Perfect Garage Storage Solution

One of the best ways to organize any garage is to get things up off of the floor, and onto the walls.

This frees up floor space so you can actually park your cars in the garage, or have room to work, such as in a little workshop.

However, mounting various pegs, hooks and other items onto the wall, one by one, may not be a great solution. What if you want to move the location of an item later?

In addition, many of the items you want to hang on the wall will be heavy, meaning you need to mount each separate wall organizer on a different stud, so it doesn't pull out of the wall. That can also be a pain.

Fortunately, Rubbermaid has come up with a great solution, which is its FastTrack organizing system. The core of the system is the rail, which you can purchase in two different lengths, 84 inches and 48 inches. Once you have this mounted into the wall then you can easily use the multiple accessories which are also available (each type is sold separately) which just snap right on to the rail, and allow you to hang up all kinds of things of various shapes and sizes.

The system is quite strong, and Rubbermaid advertises that you can hang things weighing up to a total of 1,750 pounds, which is quite a lot of stuff!

There are hooks, racks, shelves, baskets, and all kinds of other accessories available for the system, and you can choose exactly which ones you will need. The picture above shows a system set up, which includes both the rail and several different accessories, to give you an idea for what could work in your own space.

Typically, I think about this organizing system for use in the garage, but there is no reason it could not also be used in other areas of your home. Some additional ideas include your basement and also closets.
