Garage, Pantry and Mudroom Storage in Maricopa

Garage cabinets are built-in storage systems that use every inch of a garage, pantry, mudroom or laundry room instead of open shelves. Desert Forge Cabinets designs custom storage solutions that lock, seal out dust and keep floors clear, so your gear has one real place to live.

What are garage cabinets and custom storage solutions?

Garage cabinets are cabinet boxes, workbenches and slat wall panels built to organize tools, sporting gear and seasonal items off the garage floor. The same idea covers a walk-in pantry, a mudroom entry or a laundry room. Desert Forge Cabinets builds each piece by hand from the exact measurements of your space, then installs it as one finished system rather than a stack of separate parts.

Because a garage cabinet, a pantry pull-out and a mudroom locker use the same cabinet-building process, ordering them together often means one estimate visit and one install day instead of several separate projects. You can also start with just one room and add the others later.

Custom garage cabinet systems

A garage system usually starts with base cabinets along one wall, paired with a workbench and a slat wall panel for hooks and bins. Cabinets keep chemicals, tools and clutter behind closed doors, off the floor and away from kids and pets. We build each box to the height and depth your garage allows, so the finished wall of storage looks like it was made for the room, because it was.

Pull-out pantry storage

A walk-in pantry works best with drawers that pull all the way out, so nothing gets lost behind a row of cans at the back of a deep shelf. Desert Forge Cabinets builds pull-out drawers and shelving sized to your pantry, with room for small appliances, bulk goods and everyday dishes. Drawers can be designed to hold real weight and glide smoothly.

Mudroom lockers and bench storage

A mudroom locker system gives each person in the house their own spot for shoes, coats and bags, instead of a pile by the door. A bench for sitting to put on shoes, cubbies for hats and bags, and hooks for jackets are common options. If you need a full closet system for bedrooms instead, see our custom closet systems page.

Built-in laundry cabinets

Laundry cabinets add closed storage above and beside the washer and dryer for detergent, cleaning supplies and folded linens. A built-in counter over a front-load washer and dryer also gives you a folding surface you do not have now. We size laundry cabinets to fit your exact machines and the space around them, so nothing is wasted.

How is a custom storage system different from a prefab garage kit?

A prefab kit comes in standard sizes that may leave gaps around pipes, outlets or a sloped floor. A custom system is measured and built for your exact garage, pantry or mudroom, so cabinets are built to the wall they go on. Desert Forge Cabinets designs and builds each piece by hand rather than selling a boxed kit, which is why the fit and the finish match your space exactly.

That difference shows up most in tight spots, around a water heater, under a sloped roofline, or beside an electrical panel. A kit-based system usually leaves that space empty. A custom system fills it or works cleanly around it.

Will custom storage fit an odd-shaped garage, pantry or mudroom?

Yes. Sloped ceilings, support posts, low windows and narrow mudroom entries are common in many homes, and a custom system is built around them instead of forcing a standard size into an odd space. We measure your room in person at your free estimate visit and design cabinets that work around the obstacles already there, not the other way around.
