Garage Cabinets

I'm looking for some new garage cabinets , I have had Dura and was not very happy with them and now they are out of business so that's that. I'm looking for a good garage cabinet any autopians know of a good system. I don't want wood or particle board. So far these are what I've found:

www.racecabinet.com

www.mopec.com (yes I know it's lab furniture but it would work)


Any other that I didn't find out there.

PM ultgar or check his website. He sells lista cabinets.

By the way what are you doing your garage that you would need cabinates from Mopec. Are you moonlighting? J/K

When did Dura go out of Business? Are they out of business or are they no longer available in the States?
Thanks,
JS

from what I gather Dura USA went under ,from what I understand you can still get them from Dura Canada. It's been awhile since I did any business with dura so I'm not sure when the actually went under here.

Vidmar is Stanley's commercial brand of cabinets. They are medium to high end units. They have ball bearing roller drawers that open and close with no effort at all. Yes pricey, but I guess if want to buy them once there you go.

zx1200r , why I didn't like Lista , in my opinion they are not geared to the personal garage space , yes you can outfit a garage quite nice with them , but they don't have all the units I wanted to use in my shop the few units I did buy where built very well with a few exceptions , like ultgar said powder coat would be nice , all of the units I had , had rust on them somewhere , my garage is wet alot of the time but they rusted pretty quick by my standards. The drawers stuck alot , I was told by the rep. that I bought them from that is was a fluke and I had a bad unit , but all three of my units did this so I don't know. In all fairness I think Lista is a good product , nothing to write home about but still good. I think Lista has their market but I don't think it's the home garage. If Lista came out with a Home Garage Series something like Dura's line , I think that would be good and I'd certainly take a look at them.

just my opinion
