Wall-Mounted Workbench

Build a wall-mounted workbench with tool storage and shelving. A space-saving, heavy-duty DIY solution for small workshops and garages.

Turn just a few feet of wall space into a fully functional woodworking station with this DIY wall-mounted workbench plan. Designed for small shops, garages, or tight spaces, this project includes three essential components: a sturdy wall-mounted workbench, a tool rack, and a wall shelf. Together, they provide a strong worksurface and efficient storage for tools and supplies — without taking up valuable floor space.

The heavy-duty bench borrows strength from the wall, using solid ledger strips anchored to studs for maximum stability. Built from affordable construction lumber, the bench features beveled and chamfered edges for a classic look and professional finish. A tool rack above the bench keeps essential hand tools organized and within easy reach, while a six-cubby wall shelf holds larger tools and materials. The designs are flexible and easily customizable to fit your specific space.

Whether you're outfitting a compact workshop or adding function to your garage, this wall-mounted workbench setup is a space-saving, cost-effective solution that you can build in a weekend.
