Tips and Tricks

Here are a few tips to keep in mind as you make your garden shed tool rack:

  • Make sure the support pieces are securely attached to the back of the board to prevent it from falling off the wall.
  • Choose hooks that are strong enough to hold your heaviest tools.
  • If you have a lot of small tools, consider adding additional hooks or using a smaller board.
