Collection: Storage

What storage does your home actually need?

Good storage starts with what's out of place. Clothes without a home need a cloth storage unit or wardrobe. Shoes by the door call for shoe storage. A cluttered laundry wants laundry storage, a messy garage needs tool storage, and a growing collection of bottles suits wine storage. Odds and ends across the house are tamed by cube storage. Sorting home storage means walking each room, noting what's homeless, and match it to the storage type that fits.

Which storage type suits the space?

Match the storage to whether you want the contents shown or hidden. A cabinet with doors closes on the mess for a tidy look. Open shelving keeps things visible and easy to grab. Cube storage scales to any room and hides clutter behind fabric boxes. Racks and hooks lift items off the floor in a laundry, garage or entryway. For a specific room, there's targeted storage — media storage for the entertainment zone, office storage for the study, and outdoor storage for the patio. Pick shown or hidden first, then the room.

How much weight can storage hold?

Check the per-shelf rating before you load it. Engineered-wood shelves hold 5 to 10 kg each; reinforced or metal-braced shelves manage 15 to 25 kg. For heavy loads like books, tools or bottles, choose a steel-frame unit. Spread weight evenly rather than piling it at one end, and anchor tall units to the wall with the anti-tip hardware. A unit rated for its load lasts; one that's overloaded sags or bows within a year.

What we'd tell a friend buying storage furniture

Here's the part the listing skips. Flat-pack storage lives or dies on two hidden things: the back panel and the shelf thickness. A thin back bows and a thin shelf sags, but neither shows in a photo. Check the back panel is 5 mm or thicker and the shelf rating matches your load. Use every fixing in the box, since skipping the back screws is the fastest way to a wobbly unit. Buy on the structure, not the styling, because storage's whole job is holding a lot for years.

FAQs – get the answers you need

What type of storage should I buy?
Start with what's out of place and whether you want it shown or hidden. Cabinets hide clutter, open shelving keeps things visible, cube storage scales to any room, and racks lift items off the floor.

How much weight can storage shelves hold?
Engineered-wood shelves hold 5–10 kg each; reinforced or metal shelves 15–25 kg. For heavy loads, choose a steel-frame unit and check the per-shelf rating.

Can I use storage furniture in any room?
Yes. Cabinets, shelving and cube units work in bedrooms, living rooms, offices, laundries, garages and hallways. Some types are made for specific rooms, like media or wine storage.

How do I stop a tall storage unit tipping?
Anchor it to the wall with the included anti-tip hardware. This matters most for tall units and in homes with children.

Is flat-pack storage sturdy?
It can be, if the back panel is 5 mm or thicker and you use every fixing. The back panel and shelf thickness decide whether it stays square under load.
