A FEW TIPS ON GARDEN TOOL RACKS

Heavy items should be stored on a "stand alone rack or in a garden tool shed.

Light items can be stored on a hangable rack.

Plastic and metal racks generally last longer than wooden racks. However, properly made garden tool racks from good quality wood also last a long time.

If you want to hang a heavy tool like a spade, make sure it is hung on a rack made of strong material like metal and not plastic.

Consider the capabilities before you consider the look of the cart.

In other words, "get one that meets your specific needs and not one that looks so beautiful and still doesn't meet all of your needs".

If you have a few tools, get a small rack

If you have so many tools, get a bigger rack. You may even be better off getting a garden tool shed

A rack you can assemble yourself is easier to handle than a fixed unit. It is also usually cheaper.

CARE OF YOUR GARDEN TOOL RACK

Don't store inappropriate equipment on it.

For hanging units, make sure they are properly fixed to the wall.

Don't overload your garden tool racks.
