I found this is a quick and simple control for the reloading room. A good kick will still get you in, but it helps to control access and not worry about keys.

Unfortunately, the wife has it chock full of junk, so it will never become the armory closet.

Kind of grinds your gears when you see the chuck on your $X00.00 drill is rusty, and the hammer you've used for years now has a layer of rust on it, etc.
Basement tinker rooms are a must. Working in my non-insulated garage down right sucks.

One of the best dollar to results home project is insulating the garage. It really changes a lot of the things you have to do into tolerable if your not baking or freezing. doing the roof is a pain, but do not skimp and do a flat roof, but insulate between the rafters as that will get you the most results in space retrieved. I just helped a customer do the spray foam insulation in their detached garage. I could not believe the difference, from nasty cold damp space to warm and dry, just with a few hundred bucks of spray and a few light bulbs for heat. sure it wasn't shirt sleeve, but it was certainly easy to install the sheet rock with just a sweatshirt on, and its quiet in there
