How to Build a Garden Tool Storage Wall with French Cleats 

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! I definitely think you’ll like it once you have it set up

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and the Bible verse!

Awesome, I’m glad you found it helpful!

Thank you!!

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! And thanks for sharing, that’s a great tip! I’m actually about to work on some more french cleats for other tools so I will definitely plan to look for these when I’m putting it together.

Thanks!

Thank you, I’m glad you like the project! I completely understand - it is a big investment. I’m not sure if you have access to a circular saw, but if you do that may be a suitable alternative. You would just need to adjust the angle of the blade to 45 degrees and use a straight edge to cut the french cleat strips!

Thank you! My spacing is approximately 22 inches. It wasn’t a very exact science haha, I think I just took the number of rows I wanted to have and spaced them evenly on the wall, which ended up being that spacing. If I were to do it again, I would probably cut each of the long strips in half longways (so they would be thinner) and add those extra strips in between - so instead of 5 strips spaced 22 inches it would be 10 strips spaced 11 inches apart. This would allow for more space for additional hooks and would be a better use of the material, since I don’t think the thicker pieces add much if any additional strength. The key thing to keep in mind is not to position them so close together that you can’t easily add and remove the french cleat, but that probably wouldn’t be a concern unless your spacing was 6” or less.

Thank you so much! What you said makes sense. Again, great video. I’ll be tackling this project soon.

Awesome, thank you!

Thanks for the suggestion, I definitely do plan to do another wall for smaller tools as well but haven’t gotten around to it quite yet. And I think your idea about 1 board makes a lot of sense. There is definitely a good bit of wasted space with this setup because of the long handles and using fewer boards would probably still allow you to store the same number of items. If you went that route, you could also use a 1x4 or 1x6 instead of having to buy a whole sheet of plywood. Great idea!

Thanks a lot Bill! In my experience that hasn’t been an issue at all so far, the cleats seem to sit pretty securely in place. But if it does ever become an issue, I will definitely try out the velcro!

Great ! Glad to hear. Thanks for the reply. I’m subscribed BTW and look forward to watching other videos.

Sure thing! I really appreciate the support and will be putting out some more garage/workshop projects in the near future

Thanks!

Great idea! I’m working on some other french cleats and will definitely do that next time.

God has completely changed my life, and I want everyone to experience the beauty of a relationship with Jesus!

@@augustpineworkshop I've read the bible, and i read about your god smashing babies against rocks. Delusion. Let me know if you have any evidence, though

Awesome Word Brother In Christ ​@@augustpineworkshop

Get over yourself. I may not follow his religion but he has a right to share his. I know what you’re saying but it’s a bad look.

Go watch a different video, you heathen.
