Hewitt Custom Cabinets builds garage cabinets, not just kitchens and baths. These are heavy-duty storage cabinets built to hold power tools, yard equipment, sports gear, and anything else that's been living on the garage floor since move-in day. We size them to your wall, not to whatever box-store module happens to be in stock.

Garages in Hewitt see real temperature swings, summer heat in an uninsulated space, humidity bouncing with every front that comes through. Cabinets built for a climate-controlled kitchen don't always hold up out there, so we build these to a different standard from the start.

What's included

What's Included

Typically included: base and wall cabinet units sized to your garage, heavy-duty hinges and hardware rated for daily use, a durable finish that resists oil and scuffs, and anchoring hardware for secure wall mounting.

Optional: slatwall panels for hanging tools, a built-in workbench surface, and locking cabinet doors for secured storage.

Customer prep: clear the wall area you want cabinets on and let us know about any existing outlets, vents, or garage door tracks nearby so we can design around them.

Materials

Materials and Methods for Garage Storage Cabinets

Garage cabinets need to survive heat, moisture swings, and getting bumped by a bike or a mower, so we build with tougher materials than a typical kitchen job.

  • Heavy-Duty Plywood photo

    Heavy-Duty Plywood

    A strong material suited for supporting tools and equipment, holding up to Central Texas garage heat without warping like thinner stock.

  • Wall-Mounted Brackets photo

    Wall-Mounted Brackets

    Brackets used to secure cabinets firmly to garage walls, important in homes where studs and wall types vary between older and newer builds.

  • Slatwall Panels photo

    Slatwall Panels

    Panels that allow flexible hanging storage for tools and gear, so the layout can change as your storage needs do.

  • Industrial Hardware photo

    Industrial Hardware

    Rugged hardware designed for durability in garage environments, standing up to daily opening and closing better than standard cabinet hinges.

  • Protective Coatings photo

    Protective Coatings

    Finishes applied to resist scratches, oil, and moisture, which matters in a space that sees grease, fertilizer bags, and the occasional leak.

  • Custom Shelving Inserts photo

    Custom Shelving Inserts

    Shelving tailored to organize tools, supplies, and equipment so nothing gets buried in a deep cabinet.

FAQs

Garage Storage Cabinets FAQs

Do you build garage cabinets or just kitchen and bath cabinets?

We build garage storage cabinets as a standard offer alongside kitchen, bath, and closet work. Garage cabinets are sized to your wall and built from heavier-duty materials than typical kitchen cabinetry.

What does a garage storage cabinet project cost?

Cost depends on linear footage, whether you add slatwall or a workbench, and the finish you choose. We give a written estimate after seeing the space.

How long does a garage cabinet install take?

Most garage cabinet projects run 2-4 weeks from design approval to install, with install itself usually finished in a single day.

Can you build around my water heater or breaker panel?

Yes. We measure around existing fixtures, pipes, and panels so cabinets fit the real space, not a generic layout.

Do garage cabinets need a permit?

Garage cabinetry is non-structural and doesn't require a permit. Adding new electrical circuits is the main exception.

What material holds up best in a hot garage?

We use heavy-duty plywood and protective coatings built to resist warping, oil stains, and the temperature swings a typical Central Texas garage sees.

Can I add a workbench to my garage cabinets?

A built-in workbench surface is a common add-on to a garage cabinet layout.
