Quick basement shelves

Submitted by Panda on Thu, 01/18/2018 - 14:22

What a great project! This is my first Ana White project and definitely won't be my last!

 

I modified the garage plans to fit our basement. We have two beams the shelves needed to fit between, so I made the length 10' and bought 2x4s at 10'. Otherwise, I didn't do any modifications.

 

The wood was cut at the store for the lengths needed, making it super easy to come home and assemble! We secured the shelves to the basement supports and along the back wall. It's pretty secure and stable.

 

Overall this probably took a few hours (we took a break while constructing it). Next time I would make the shelves a bit deeper. 17" was fine, but a few more inches would have made the bins fit a bit better.

 

I am looking forward to making more!
