30 DO IT YOURSELF Summer 2020

HACK IT MAKE IT BUY IT

GOOD SPORT Clear and mesh bins make

it easy to keep balls, gloves, and helmets

accessible for the next game. Sort equipment

in a way that makes sense for you—either

by activity, size, or family member—then

choose a closet shelving system that fits your

needs. We organized gear by sport and used

an Elfa system from The Container Store to

create a custom sports storage solution.

WHEELS UP Save precious

floor space when you

use this clever hook to

hang bicycles from the

wall. With a 30-pound

capacity and a vinyl-

padded tip, it can safely

hold your mountain bike

or prized beach cruiser.

Locking tabs keep the

hook affixed securely to

the corresponding track.

Vertical Bike Hook, $10

(affixes to GearTrack

Channel, starting at $24);

ON A ROLL When it comes to storing bulky gear, casters

are a game changer. Simply slide out this wire mesh bin

and toss balls, toys, and duffel bags inside. At more than

2 feet wide, it can handle loads of equipment. Silver

Mesh Rolling Storage Bin, $50; containerstore.com

SLEEK SYSTEM

ORDER IN THE HOUSE

Turn underused garage space into an

organized haven for storing sports equipment,

travel gear, pantry essentials, and more.
