The Ultimate Guide to the UltraTools Storage Series

If you’re looking to get your garage in order, UltraTools offers a range of steel storage cabinet systems designed to suit everyone from weekend DIYers to full-time professionals. Whether you need wall-mounted or freestanding units, options with adjustable shelves, or a complete workstation with multiple cabinet types, UltraTools has you covered.

This is your go-to guide to the three key UltraTools garage storage ranges we currently offer here at Space Sheds: the UltraTools Economy, UltraTools Advanced, and UltraTools Pro Max. We’re diving into their unique features, differences, and which type of user each range best suits so you can make your next purchase with confidence!

UltraTools Economy

If you’re looking to step up your garage organisation without a big financial commitment, the UltraTools Economy Series is a fantastic entry point. Designed with essential features for everyday storage, this range offers practical solutions while keeping costs low.

Key Features

  • Coating: Epoxy Powder finish for durable, basic protection

  • Overall Cabinet Height: 2025mm (tall enough for ample storage)

  • Workbench Depth: 520mm, offering generous surface area

  • Workbench Material: Particle board with a 30mm timber thickness

  • Legs: Lightweight plastic for ease of movement

  • Freestanding: Yes, no need for fixed installation

  • Pegboard Thickness: 0.7mm

  • Pegboard on Door: Not included

  • Drawer Cabinet Auto Safety Lock: Not included

  • Power Board & Air Hose Fitting Board: Not included

  • LED Work Lights: Upgradable (not standard)

  • Garbage Bin Cabinet: Not included

Best For:

  • Occasional DIYers

  • General home storage

  • Budget-conscious renovators

While it lacks some of the more advanced features found in the other ranges, the garage storage cabinets in the Economy line are built with functionality in mind. With its full-sized height and respectable workbench depth, it’s more than capable of handling light to moderate garage tasks. The freestanding setup is ideal for renters or those who want flexibility in their workspace layout.

The plastic legs, particle board worktop, and thinner pegboard make it less suitable for heavy-duty applications, so if your garage is your workshop, you may want to consider stepping up to the Advanced or Pro Max series (more on those below).

UltraTools Advanced

The UltraTools Advanced Series offers a more refined and durable build compared to the Economy version, making it a solid choice for those who spend a bit more time in the garage and need dependable storage and functionality.

Key Features

  • Coating: Sleek matte epoxy paint for a premium look

  • Overall Cabinet Height: 1870mm (or 1945mm with optional castor wheels)

  • Workbench Depth: 455mm (slightly smaller but still practical

  • Workbench Material: Solid timber, 30mm thick for a sturdy feel

  • Legs: 201-grade stainless steel for improved strength and rust resistance

  • Freestanding: Upgradable (can be fixed or mobile)

  • Pegboard Thickness: 0.8mm

  • Pegboard on Door: Yes, for added tool visibility and convenience

  • Drawer Cabinet Auto Safety Lock: Not included

  • Power Board & Air Hose Fitting Board: Not included

  • LED Work Lights: Upgradable

  • Garbage Bin Cabinet: Not included

Best For:

  • Intermediate users and hobbyists

  • Home workshops

  • Semi-permanent garage setups

With its solid timber workbench, thicker pegboard, and upgraded stainless steel legs, the Advanced model provides a noticeably more premium experience. The matte epoxy coating not only looks good but also offers a more durable surface finish that resists scuffing.

The inclusion of a pegboard on the door is a clever upgrade, allowing quick access to frequently used tools. While it still lacks some premium features like a power board or auto-lock drawers, it strikes a balance between cost and quality, making it ideal for DIYers who want more than just the basics.

The optional castor wheels are a great addition, offering mobility if you need to reconfigure your layout or take your workspace outdoors.

UltraTools ProMax 

At the top of the UltraTools hierarchy is the Pro Max Series, and it shows. This range is engineered for professionals and serious garage enthusiasts who need a rugged, reliable, and feature-packed workstation.

Key Features

  • Coating: Matte epoxy paint for premium aesthetics and durability

  • Overall Cabinet Height: 2020mm (nearly identical to the Economy series)

  • Workbench Depth: 550mm (the deepest of the three for maximum working space)

  • Workbench Material: Solid timber with an extra-thick 38mm profile

  • Legs: Carbon steel for maximum load-bearing capability

  • Freestanding: Yes

  • Pegboard Thickness: 0.8mm

  • Pegboard on Door: No

  • Drawer Cabinet Auto Safety Lock: Yes, for secure tool storage

  • Power Board & Air Hose Fitting Board: Included

  • LED Work Lights: Included as standard

  • Garbage Bin Cabinet: Included for a clean, professional environment

Best For:

  • Professional tradespeople

  • Home mechanics

  • Full-time DIYers

  • Workshop conversions

The Pro Max is where performance and design come together. The thickest workbench of the three provides extra stability and impact resistance, and the carbon steel legs ensure this system can handle substantial weight without flexing or damage.

The drawer cabinet auto-lock feature adds a layer of safety, especially if you’re storing sharp or valuable tools. Meanwhile, the built-in power board and air hose fitting board significantly boost productivity by reducing the need for external wiring or cluttered extensions.

Integrated LED work lights enhance visibility during precision tasks, and the garbage bin cabinet keeps your workspace tidy. It’s these little touches that elevate the Pro Max from just a storage unit to a complete workstation.
