Workbench with rollout tool chests

Garage workbench with rollout tool chests for extra worktop space.

The side of the garage had almost 15 feet of unused space, and no workbench, so this looked like a pretty obvious choice for the spot.

Framing out the workbench

The workbench was pretty easy to frame out, and the rollouts were quick too. The part that took a bit of time was adding the drawers. Each one is an individually built box. Nothing complex about it, but it does take some time!

The framing is done, now just need to build some drawers!

This workbench and drawers replaced two full height metal tool chests. The drawers have full extension hardware so that all of the space in the drawers can be utilized.

Drawers all have heavyweight, full extension hardware.

The hardware can support 100 pounds each, so the middle drawers are holding the heavy power tools.

This garage needed more workspace than just that on top of the workbench. The two end workchests pull out for extra worktops.

The pullouts are on heavy duty castors that have locks on all four corners. The result is a super steady workspace.

The two slide outs are the exact same height so that they can be put together for a double width worktop too. This garage workbench with rollout tool chests for extra worktop space really helps complete so many other projects around the house!
