Take the shelf boards and drill pocket holes on the sides and the back. Step 7 – Drill Pocket Holes in the Shelf Boards and Attach Inside the Cabinets Attach two middle dividers on the left side and two in the center with 1 1/4″ Pocket hole screws and Wood Glue. Remove the temporary shelves from the right side and place 30 1/2″x14 1/2″ shelves on the left side the same way, as a guide.

Step 6 – Install Left and Center Cabinet Dividers Attach two middle dividers side by side with 1 1/4″ Pocket hole screws and wood glue. This way you’ll have two shelf boards to lean the middle divider against. Then place a box or a bucket with the second shelf board on top.
This will serve as a guide to install the divider boards accurately.
Once the cabinet is firmly secured onto the wall, place one shelf board, 30 3/8″x14 1/2″, on the bottom right of the cabinet temperately. Step 5 – Install Middle Divider on the Right Once you lift the cabinet and align it to the correct elevation, finish screwing in the screws into the studs. Screw-in 2 1/2″ Wood Screws slightly into the backboard. Use a Stud Finder to find the studs in the wall then measure stud locations and transfer these measurements to the inside of the cabinet. Step 4 – Raise and Attach the Cabinet to the WallĪt this point, attach the cabinet to the wall. Then attach it to the cabinet on the right. Take the door that does not open and drill two pocket holes on the inside top. Step 3 – Attach the Non-Functional Door on the Right The side pieces will stand 3/4″ taller than the backboard. Then take the side pieces and attach them to the bottom and backboard. If you do not have any obstructions in the garage then you could make all doors open). That is why I have pocket holes on the bottom piece and on the side piece to secure that door in place. (Since my cabinets are placed behind the horizontal track of the garage door, the cabinet door on the very right will not open. Make sure that the bottom piece has the pocket holes on the inside of the cabinet, and backboard pocket holes are placed behind the cabinet. Step 2 – Attach Bottom, Back and Side Pieces TogetherĪttach the backboard to the bottom piece with 1 1/4″ Pocket hole screws and Wood Glue. Take the back piece 94 3/8″x26 1/2″ and the bottom piece 94 3/8″x15 1/4″ and drill pocket holes as shown in the picture. Then start with the long section (L) of the cabinet.

Step 1 – Download and Print Cut List and Cut the Piecesįirst, download and print out the cut sheet and cut all the pieces using a Table Saw or/and Skill Saw. The front doors and middle dividers are the same sizes for the short and long sections. Each piece in the cut list has a description with either (L) for the longer section or (S) for the short section. Note: The total length of the cabinets, in this plan, is over 13 feet so the cabinets need to be made from two sections.
