Wall shelving is a great way to utilize extra space when your floor space is full. This is particularly important in rooms such as offices, where office furniture takes up the majority of the floor space or in laundry rooms where appliances need to be stabalised on the floor. Taking advantage of unused wall space is a great way to unclutter and get organized.

Wall shelving systems don’t always have to be constructed from metal. Although the most versatile options generally work from a metal backing with attachements to front metal plates or panels, this can also be achieved with wood wall shelving. Many manufacturers such as Stacks and Stacks, Danya B and The Storage Store have excellent shelving systems.

Other rooms in the home that can benefit from wall storage include the living areas and bathrooms. Floating shelves are great for a more modern home design and in bathrooms where toilets, basins and baths take up so much of the floor space, including a wall shelving system above the toilet will afford you much more space.

Adjustable shelving systems are the most popular due to their versatility and functionality. This is particular true for the garage where wall space can dramatically increase the amount of area that you have for storage and organization. Wall mounted shelving systems can be reinforced for heavier items and many of the shelving systems can also be ceiling mounted allowing you to pack away items for long term storage solutions.
