Shelves need more support

I bought the Large Gearbox because I really like the small 30-in Gearboxes I've been using for the past year. The Large Gearbox went together in about 3 hours, but I could probably assemble another one in 2 hours max. And I'm really picky about alignment! My only complaints are about the 3 "adjustable" shelves. On my 30-in Gearboxes, the shelves simply snap into slots (at various heights) on the sides and back. On my new Large Gearbox, the shelves are attached with 2 small screws per side, and NONE in the back. And the only way to adjust the shelves is to remove the screws. You'd think if smaller 30-in shelves are supported in the back, then 36-in shelves would definitely be. I can tell by pushing down on the center of the shelves that I will have to find some way to support them, probably with 3 screws at the back. Have to say I'm disappointed with the design compared to my 30 inch Gearboxes. I would recommend it for lightweight items, but heavier items, such as several gallons of paint or a 12-in miter saw, will surely make the shelves sag.

Put together, attached lock to right door but left door does not secure when closed so the locking feature is useless.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought 2 ready to assemble cabinet to install on the GearTrack track system. However, nowhere in the instruction it is indicated which wall bracket to use. Can these cabinet can even be installed on the GearTrack?

Dented on Arrival
on August 17, 2020

Purchased two of these 36" floor cabinets. Construction was easy, with all parts/bolts/pieces included. Although the boxes were undamaged, there were several ends of separate pieces that were bent and dented. The packaging is not sufficiently protecting the cabinet pieces. The large side panel pieces can move during shipping and that allows their ends to be badly bent. Both of the larger side panels (labeled P1) in both boxes had badly bent ends. (I was able to gently bend flat the metal - flattening most of the deformities out using a hammer against wood resting on the surface to soften the hammer strike. But some dents were too difficult to completely remove.). Some of the other smaller cabinet pieces were also dented, and there's no way that could have happened during shipping. These particular parts were dented prior to shipment. So while the product assembled well, looks good, and does it's job - expect it to have dented parts that won't assemble until you work out the dents. In total, I've purchased 6 smaller wall cabinets and two 36" floor cabinets, and most of them had dented or bent flanges or edges.

Meets my needs

I purchased 3 large cabinets and one smaller wall cabinet. The cabinets are easy to assemble and hang on the wall with the track system. The only issue is the condition of the cabinets, they appeared to be packed well but when I unpacked them and assembled them, every one of the large cabinets had dents in every side panel and one of the doors. I would have returned them however, the unpacking process destroyed the boxes. I decided to live with the dents since I really need them so I could unpack the my tools from the moving boxes (recently moved). Bottom line, I like the cabinets but would not recommended them if you want a pristine garage.

Needs more shelf options

I just bought this from H.D. Assembly was fairly easy , but I was disappointed in the shelf hole options and it could use an additional shelf .Other than that it's ok. I guess I'll have to drill my own holes an add one .To bad you don't sell extra shelves as an option.

Great Shelving Components

I love the shelving components that you have above all the other competitors. I just wish that you would also sell additional shelves for the cabinets you sell. I really could use 2 36" x 18" shelves for the cabinets I already own, like replacement parts!

Great Product

I am writing this primarily as a response to the negative reviews which sound to me like mainly shipping and lock issues. I bought 3 of these units. After assembling the first one and getting the hang of it, the second two went together quickly. They are well built, sturdy and have been a welcome addition to my garage. They have created a ton of space and keep things clean and securely organized. Not sure how I lived without them. Highly recommended.
