DIY Modular Shelving

DIY modular shelving gives you the freedom to build storage around the way you actually use your garage or workshop.
SQUIREL is designed for straightforward assembly, with precision-machined components that connect to create a strong modular system. Start with the storage you need now, then add more shelving, extend the setup or introduce a workspace as your requirements change.
It is a practical DIY garage storage system that can develop alongside your tools, equipment and projects.

A heavy duty racking system needs to do more than hold a few boxes. In a working garage or workshop, storage has to cope with tools, equipment and regular use while keeping everything accessible and properly organised.
SQUIREL modular racking is made in the UK from precision-machined plywood, combining substantial load capacity with a clean finish and a modular structure that can be expanded as your storage requirements change.
With a recommended load of up to 100kg per shelf when evenly distributed, it is built for garages and workshops that get used.
Self assembly storage units that fit your space
Good garage storage does not have to arrive as one large, fixed unit.
SQUIREL self assembly storage units are built from individual modules, giving you more control over the finished layout. The smart interlocking design keeps assembly straightforward, while adjustable components help create a stable setup for everyday garage and workshop use.
If you are comparing flat pack garage storage, the difference is what happens after the initial build. SQUIREL is designed to keep changing. Additional modules can be incorporated later, so increasing your storage does not mean starting again with an entirely new setup.
A garage may need simple shelving today and considerably more storage a year from now.
The modular structure allows you to build upwards or extend across the available space as your requirements change. Drawers and doors can also be introduced where open shelving is not the right fit.
For anyone planning a modular shelving DIY project, this gives you a clear structure to work from without fixing the garage into one permanent configuration.
SQUIREL is free-standing rather than conventional DIY modular wall shelving, so you can make use of wall space without relying on a wall-mounted shelving system.
DIY modular shelving that can grow with you
Build your heavy duty racking system
SQUIREL modules work together, giving you different ways to build a heavy duty racking system around your garage or workshop.


Start with The Shelves
The Shelves provides a complete open-front storage setup from the outset.
Built using the SQUIREL modular system, it gives you four or five static shelves depending on the chosen configuration, with a recommended load capacity of up to 100kg per shelf when evenly distributed. The open layout keeps tools, equipment and supplies visible and within easy reach.
Use it as a complete shelving unit or continue adding to the system later.
Add a Workstation to your storage setup
Storage is only part of what makes a garage useful.
The Work Station integrates with the SQUIREL modular system to create a dedicated working area alongside your storage. Its 18mm birch plywood work surface is reinforced with two cross braces, providing a stable surface for assembly, maintenance and everyday projects.
Tools and equipment can stay organised around the working area rather than taking over the surface itself, making it easier to move between storage and practical work.


A DIY modular shelving system gives you more control over how your garage develops.
Start with open shelving, add a workstation where you need somewhere to work, and expand the system when your storage requirements change. Because the modules are designed to work together, each addition can become part of the same overall setup.
Explore SQUIREL modular storage and build a garage or workshop around the way you use it.
DIY heavy duty shelving for everyday garage use
A system that is simple to assemble still needs to stand up to regular use.
SQUIREL shelving is made from precision-machined hardwood plywood and finished with a phenolic resin surface for durability and grip. The shelving is resistant to moisture and common workshop chemicals, while each shelf can support up to 100kg when the load is evenly distributed.
This gives you DIY heavy duty shelving that combines straightforward assembly with the strength needed for tools, equipment and workshop supplies.
