With moving and room changes accompanying the new life season, cases of people worrying about a lack of storage and securing workspace are increasing. Particularly in rental housing, there are constraints against damaging walls and floors, leading to the issue of not being able to freely install furniture. Against this background, we introduce a method to flexibly secure storage and workspace even in limited spaces by utilizing the DIY item 'STAND BAR' (Aiwa Metal Co., Ltd.), which can be installed without tools and is designed with restoring the room to its original condition in mind.
■ 'Space-saving utilization' required in the new life season
The new life season is a time to reconsider how to use living spaces due to moving and changes in living environments. On the other hand, many start their lives in limited spaces such as studio apartments or 1K layouts, often resulting in worries like 'not enough storage' or 'cannot secure a workspace.'
In addition, rental housing often restricts modifications to walls and floors from the perspective of restoring the room to its original condition, creating the problem of not being able to freely add storage or furniture.
■ What is 'STAND BAR'
'STAND BAR' is a DIY part that allows you to freely install shelves and desks by combining it with timber. It features a mechanism that fixes the part to the wall with ultra-fine 0.9mm pins, allowing installation while minimizing damage to the wall. It is also an attention-gathering item as it easily allows the creation of very high load-bearing storage, and the series has recently surpassed 300,000 cumulative sales.
Unlike standard tension-type storage using 2x4 lumber, it does not need to be fixed between the floor and ceiling, so it can be installed without squeezing floor space, and it has the advantage of keeping the foot area clean and easy to clean.
Also, unlike the tension type, there is no need to prepare long timber, making it easier to take home from home improvement centers and keeping material costs down. The ability to flexibly set up layouts even in limited spaces is also attractive.
Furthermore, while designed to be installed without tools, using tools in some steps, such as fixing screws, allows the work to proceed more smoothly.
