Customer Reviews for Gladiator Steel 1-Shelf Wall Mounted Garage Cabinet in Silver Tread (28 in W x 28 in H x 12 in D)

We installed 5 of these in our garage. They assembled nicely and look great. Should have no problem holding the weight they are rated for. We used the GearTracks to hang the cabinets. Gladiator recommends 18" space between upper and lower GearTracks, but we used 19 1/4" so the bottom track still spaces the cabinet away from the wall properly but we gain full usage of the bottom GearTrack for hanging items below the cabinets. See photo.

We needed a cabinet for our teardrop trailer and got a quote of over $1,000 from a cabinet maker. So I started looking for other options and found a couple of these would fit almost perfectly. The only issue I had was that when I installed them they ended up being somewhat skewed, so the doors are not quite straight. They are close enough to work, but not ideal. For my use case it would have been better to have the shelves "click in" so they can't rattle loose and to not have a hole in the bottom for cords and maybe a more secure latch, but overall I am very happy.

Product was easy to put together and mount on wall. I purchased three cabinets and they look great in my garage.

I purchased a bunch of the hanging and base cabinets and a three of the big free standing. For the hanging cabinets I used the used the gear tracks but decided I didn't need a lower piece to level it as I just used a long piece of 1 x 2 firiring strip , much cheaper. I hung the gear track and strip on a concrete block wall with tapcons. Very easier and easy to slide around to position. ..and sturdy . I assembled and hung by myself. No problem

I saw these cabinets in a competitors store and was able to touch and feel them before I bought them. Despite coming from China, these are well made with a durable finish. HD price matched the competitor and I used ship to store to save on shipping costs. Assembly was very easy. I purchased 7 of these cabinets. I assembled one with directions and the other 6 without. They only flaw I encountered is that on the back panel on all 7 cabinets there were two screw holes that were drilled but not tapped so the screws would not go through. I have a tap and die set so I was able to tap the holes and insert the screws. I also purchased the gear track wall panels for installing in my garage. Installation of the panels was time consuming, but worth it. I did need the help of a neighbor installing the panels to ensure they were straight and level. The cabinets turned my disorganized workbench and homemade shelving in to a functional and usable space.

My review will cover the entire Gladiator line of cabinets since I bought just about 1 of everything. I looked at all the garage cabinet choices from all the competitors. I really liked the look of the diamond plate doors. The doors alone will fool you into thinking that this is some seriously heavy duty cabinetry. Not so. I'll get to that. I chose these cabinets for the look and great price. First off, and this is where the "Let's be honest" review title comes from, things simply are not built like they used to be. These cabinets are made in China. They are absolutely the thinnest gauge necessary. The hardware is of the least acceptable quality. In fact, some of the screws for the cabinet backs are self-threading. Oh! Don't over tighten them. In fact, don't tighten them at all. As soon as they bottom out, stop! They strip out immediately. And because they are self-threading, you have push at least some while attempting to get them started. That little bit of push can buckle the metal you're trying to put them in. I will say that the packaging is really good. However, with the packaging being so good how did I still manage to have several panels that were damaged? In fact, one panel was bent bad enough (a corner) that the little bit of body work that I did to it caused all the finish to chip off. But, I needed cabinets right now and I wasn't going to drive all over the country side and deal with mail order returns. The drawers are flimsy as all get out. The slides are the worst quality. They don't slide well. They don't fit well. In fact, I have one drawer that constantly comes off track. I keep light stuff in that one. These cabinets are not square. All of the adjustment is there, but it's finicky. The doors have oblong holes for adjustment. The feet have adjustments. But try adjusting one of these cabinets. It's impossible to get it right. You can only get it kinda sorta close. Then, move the cabinet a few inches to get it into place and wham! The whole thing is out of whack again. Overall, these cabinets look good, but they are cheaply built by foreign labor.

These gladiator products are a great addition to any garage. There sturdy and very well built. You can't get a better product for the money. I've built my garage around these great cabinets.

Easy to assemble and look really sharp. The shelves seem slightly slim but will still hold the weight rating with ease.

It works well…………………………………..and does its job well.

Very easy to assemble. Very durable. Excellent storage. Moves very easily.

Easy to assemble, looks great and great for storage.

This was a gift and my husband had to assemble, it was very easy and the quality was above expected!

Excellent product. Sturdy and well built. Easy to assemble.

These cabinets were extremely easy to assemble. I did mount with the gear track system which made mounting very easy. Well constructed product.

Love my new wall cabinets! I modified them as I did not want to buy the track system and they are holding up in my office.

Not heavy duty. Disappointed in product. Too high in price for quality of product.

My garage will win a beauty pageant after these additions. Your garage will look flawless with these gearboxes paired with various Gladiator boxes and cabinets. Do it! Trust me!

Was easier to assembly than I expected. All parts were provided and all fit well together. I initially had trouble with aligning the holes for the mounting bracket until I moved to the lower position. Duh, my mistake. I called the 1-800 assist number and received excellent assistance.

Came in a little banged up, but not horrible. Door alignment isn’t perfect.

Great product for the price, cabinets very easy to assemble. Highly recommend!

Assembling the gear box wall cabinet is a bit tricky. The seams must line up perfectly into there slots before tightening the screws. Several seams came out when I was assembling the cabinet.

We started purchasing a few of these cabinets a couple years back. They look great and are well constructed. We are cleaning out, refinishing and organizing our garage now. We knew that adding a few more of these gladiator products were the way to go.

Nice cabinet, easy to assemble, good size, purchased two.

The Gladiator Wall Mounted Garage Cabinet is easy to assemble and is very sturdy. The description says (1) Shelf but all four of mine have (2) Adjustable shelves.
