Father’s Day is around the corner. What should you get the dad or father figure in your life? A unique gift can be hard to think of, especially for the man who has everything.
What exactly is Father’s Day, and why does it matter? Always on the third Sunday in June, Father’s Day honors fathers and father figures from all walks of life. If your dad is anything like the parents on our company team, they spend time in the garage year-round building something, tackling a new hobby, or cleaning the car.
We’ve got some garage gift ideas to show Dad your appreciation for all that they do. Grab a cold beer, pull up a stool, and let’s brainstorm a wish list together.
What are the best garage gifts for my dad?
Steer clear of unimaginative gifts like socks or a tie, and get him something unexpected instead. (Except the “Best Dad Ever” coffee mug. That’s a great gift any day of the year.)
If your Dad likes to work on his hobbies in his spare time, why not get him something functional yet fun? From a space heater to a mini fridge, show him you care with a few gifts to level up Dad’s garage.
With Father’s Day right around the corner, here are a few great options to surprise him with:
1. Build garage storage cabinets to save space.
Has Dad’s tool collection expanded over the years? It’s no secret that enough space in the garage can be hard to come by. Help Dad keep the garage organized with a custom-built storage cabinet along the wall.
Consider slatwall panels with hanging accessories to help store ladders, extension cords, lawn trimmers, and any other power tools that need to be hung up. Get all the clutter off the garage floor — and move the car inside from the driveway.
2. A flood light Is always a bright idea.
Most garages only have a couple of dull incandescent bulbs as the main light source. Consider upgrading your Dad’s set up with an energy-efficient floodlight that will drastically improve the lighting quality in the garage. Even better, opt for a new floodlight camera that brightens and protects your space at the same time.
For the backyard enthusiast, a floodlight camera is the perfect addition to any home security setup. Options like the Arlo Pro 3 Wireless Floodlight Camera offer all-in-one security that can protect garages, driveways, and other expansive areas with the convenience of a wire-free floodlight.
