Garage Pulley Storage Makes Storage Easier

If you've been thinking about adding a garage pulley storage system to your home, you may be wondering if it's worth the investment. The short answer is yes! Garage pulley storage systems can save you time and protect your safety while putting up boxes and storage items in your overhead garage storage area. Here are just a few of the benefits of using a garage pulley storage system:

1. Save Time

One of the biggest benefits of using a garage pulley storage system is that it can save you time. If you're constantly having to search for things in your overhead garage storage area, a pulley system can help you access those items much more quickly and easily. No more scrambling around on a ladder or taking everything down just to get to one thing! Just load the platform with what you want and lower it to the garage floor level. When you are done, raise the platform back up with an easy press of a button.

2. Protect Your Safety

Another benefit of using a garage pulley storage system is that it can protect your safety. Climbing up on a ladder to retrieve items from your overhead garage storage area can be dangerous, especially if you're not used to doing it. As we age, our ability to retrieve a 45 pound box from above our head can lead to serious injury. A pulley system takes the danger out of the equation by allowing you to lower things down to you instead of having to climb up to them and carry them down.

3. Convenience

For younger homeowners, a garage pulley storage system is also incredibly convenient. If you have guests coming over and need to get something down from your overhead garage storage area, you won't have to ask them to do it for you. Simply lower the item down with the pulley system and save yourself the hassle. Another great convenience factor is garage pulley systems that are electric. Most people will imagine a long rope attached to a pulley wheel and using brut strength to hoist the item upwards. While that is one way, Versalift is all electric with options for a remote, wireless remote, and wall switch, for convenience. 

4. Independent Living for Older Adults

Another group of people who have benefited from using a garage pulley storage system is older adults who want to maintain their independence. If climbing up on a ladder is no longer an option for you or someone you know, a Versalift is a perfect solution. By being able to lower items down from overhead, older adults can still enjoy the independence of being able to retrieve things from their overhead garage storage area without having to ask for help – or breaking their backs. 

Regardless of your age or physical abilities, there are many benefits to using a garage pulley storage system in your home. If you're looking for a way to save time, protect your safety, or just make life easier, check out our two options for Versa Lift.
