The American Heritage Dictionary says that the word “garage” is a direct borrowing from French which means “to put a vehicle into place for safekeeping”. Originally, however, the word from which “garage” came from meant “to put merchandise under shelter”. Perhaps this is the reason why today’s garage is no longer just for the safekeeping of vehicles. It has come full circle and returned to its original meaning. Items and merchandise totally unrelated to vehicles are found in the garage –like sports gear, kids’ toys, holiday décor, and other mementoes. It is for this reason, that full size cabinets are needed in the garage, like the Alera Assembled Wardrobe ALE 82209.
The cabinet stands six feet tall. At this height and with a width of 36 inches and depth of 18, it is big enough to hold plenty of your gear and stuff. It is made of industrial grade steel and finished with a shiny black enamel. The door handles are in chrome and, inside the door, are equipped with a three-point locking system.
The Alera Assembled Wardrobe has four shelves. The top shelf is fixed running the full width of the cabinet. The other three, at approximately 18 inches, are only half of the top shelf. These, however, are adjustable for a more flexible storage option. The other half is a tall storage area with a rod for hanging.
The adjustable shelves can be used to store your tools, both small hand tools and even power tools. The tall storage area, on the other hand, can be used for your fishing rods, golf clubs, short surfboard, and perhaps even your kayak.
Environmentalists may even appreciate the Alera Assembled Wardrobe ALE 82209 as a full 50% of its content is recycled.
