Built-in cabinets in garage
 
Looking to put in built-in cabinets in the garage of my new home. Primarily will be storage for counter-top small kitchen appliances, some tabletop serve ware, cookbooks, DVDs, and costco bulk household items. Need direction/advice: 1) would these items all survive being stored in a hot garage. 2) Any referrals for a contractor who could do this work. Thank you.

I have stored a coffee pot in the hot attic and it works just fine when I need a larger pot for entertaining.
I would not store DVDs in a hot environment but I don't know for sure if the heat would harm them.
I store paper products in the garage on open shelving and they do just fine.
I'm sure cookbooks would be OK in the garage. I keep paper work in bins in the garage and they are fine.
Hope that helps.

I would suggest checking out the Elfa system at The Container Store. I installed it in my garage in Virginia and it was extremely easy to install and totally flexible. Also, it hangs on the wall, so you have nothing touching the floor.

If you value your cookbook, then NO for some reason bugs leave paper products , but, love to get between pages in books. Same with cardboard don't store anything in cardboard

I bought Husky brand steel cabinets almost 10 years ago (from Home Depot) for the garage, these look as good as new. They are all steel, lockable if needed, and i was able to add my own wood additional shelves. At the time these cost about 20% of custom designed cabinets. Also, these can be rearranged if needed, just a thought for a less costly alternative.
Only downside, these are kits, you need to put together, a second person makes this process much easier.

I had Dustin Miller of Central Florida Garage Designs put in my cabinets in the garage. Loved the quality of the product. The cabinets are all powder coated, so they withstand the heat of the garage. Worth the price!! Choice of colors too! 407-630-8498

After talking with several contractors about garage cabinets, I ended up buying entry level kitchen base and wall cabinets fro Lowes. The install was easy and I saved more than 50 percent on the project. Lowe's delivered everything including laminated countertops for the base cabinets.

We put in built in cabinets and a work bench in our garage. I store all my small appliances and oversized pans and glass and chinaware overflow. We used Inspired Closets on highway 44. They have a showroom.

Lowe's has some very nice preassembled cabinets in various colors. I used them in the garage and the laundry room. If you're not able to install them yourself any reputable handy man could do it

I have a neighbor who built me my cabinets. Send me a text and I'll send you a photo.
