Screw storage limit reached!

Feb 01, 2006 5 Replies

My garage cupboards are now crammed with so many B&Q plastic boxes full of woodscrews etc I can hardly open then! So, has anyone seen any good-value (ie not too expensive) wall mounted storage racks/cabinets/anything Ican decant this stuff into? Thanks


what about some of these

would get a few of these and attach to the wall in a way that you can easily lift them off so you can transport the screws to the job if required.

I tip screws into boxes, for storage, one for 6s on for 8s one for 10s. When I want a screw, I tip the box onto a newspaper.

I always seem to buy them in plastic bags that rip right open when you just need one screw.

Not wall mounted, but Wickes have some nice cases with individual boxes inside for about £8:50. Easier to remove the individual box to get at the screws.

How about the jar solution.

Fix lids of empty screwtop jars to the underside of shelves, put screws in the emty jar and screw it into it's lid.

Very economical, anyhow
