Sage shaker locker panel with oak bench top in a dual-use garage gym
About This Design
We brought the mudroom into the garage gym by matching the sage shaker cabinetry to the room's utilitarian character. The locker panel wall with matte black hooks reads as a locker room wall, but the oak bench top and raised shaker drawer fronts elevate it beyond basic garage storage. The weight rack sits to the left as an intentional design element.
Design Tip
When designing a built-in for a multi-use space like a garage gym, match the panel color to the room's dominant tone rather than contrasting it. Here the sage reads as intentional because it is repeated across the drawer fronts, the locker panel, and the bench base as one cohesive object.

Spatial Approach
The locker bench is positioned along the rear wall between the entry door and the gym zone, creating a clear circulation path from exterior door to workout floor. The weight rack to the left occupies a natural alcove without blocking the bench or the door swing. The built-in depth is kept shallow to preserve floor space for equipment.
Best For
Designed for homeowners converting a garage into a dual-purpose gym and mudroom. The locker bench handles athletic gear, shoes, and post-workout towels while the weight rack stays within arm's reach. Suits households that want the gym to look designed rather than improvised.
