Whether you have a specific room for your hobbies or you own a garage where you feel yourself a king, you shall agree that it is crucial to arrange it in a way you want. Here, we are going to check some of the most interesting solutions that you can implement without investing too much.

To start with, you will need some linear actuators and actuator systems. Their size, power, stroke length will differ depending on the application type, your space, and similar. Here, you can choose whatever systems you need.

Now, let us have a look at specific projects.

Automate the Door

It is important to be able to block and unblock the entrance with a click of a button. When you are working on a super interesting project, we doubt you will love to be interrupted if someone knocks at the door. If you automate the door though, this issue will be eliminated.



A sliding door is the best option to be automated. Fix it on a couple of actuators to move it along the wall and to close the entrance. While functionality is the top priority, you may still want it to look nice. Thus, hide the actuators behind special panels.

Shelves to Keep Your Belongings Can Also Be Automated

You might believe that shelves are the most inconvenient furniture pieces even though they are needed. What about installing them somewhere just below the ceiling? Fix them on a couple of actuators to make them lower when you need to take your tools. In the normal position, they will be again moved to the ceiling.

What about Some Comfort?

Once more, we understand that functionality is a must. However, you would want to receive in your cave your friends. Have you thought about where you can accommodate them?

What about a table that can be folded and unfolded automatically or even be lifted from the floor to the needed height? For a foldable table, you need to fix one side to the wall. Below it, fix actuators to make them unfold the table.

For a height-adjustable table, use a good lift system. The lower position shall be at the level of your cave floor. Ok, you might need to make the floor level lower there to accommodate the actuator system. The table top shall be also very robust.

Would You Love to Use Ceiling?

Some people love using the ceiling, too. We aren’t sure about the aesthetical point of such solutions but they are very practical, there is no doubt regarding it. Height adjustable rods with hooks is the solution we are going to talk about. The hooks can be used to store your rods, tools, etc. When you don’t need the item, just move it up to the ceiling.

Now, you know how to turn your hub into something incredible. Moreover, the ideas aren’t limited to the mentioned ones. Check what you would love to have in your special cave, think about what you can use to handle it, and move for it.
