At Polstore Storage Systems, we fit out workshops for motorsport workshop areas. Whether you’re a professional race team, a mechanic, or have a motorsport workshop area, our fitouts can transform your garage into an organised and efficient space.
In this case study, we share the design to installation for Thorney Motorsport.
Thorney Motorsport develop and build cars for racing, everything from the Production BMW Championship to the BTCC. They specialise in sprint and endurance racing with Vauxhall Astra, Corsa, Insignia models and BMW’s E30,46 and 92 M3 models. They have now established themselves as one of the largest and most experienced independent Mclaren tuning and servicing operations in the world.
They required a five bay race workshop fit out in two separate garage storage areas with mobile roller cabinets and race workstations. The workshop storage solutions project covered everything from storing motorsport parts, high-performance engineering components, equipment and accessories.
“We spoke with all the specialist motorsport workshop storage suppliers and Polstore Storage Systems were the only ones who actually seemed to want to provide a workshop storage solution rather than just sell us cabinets,” says John Thorne, Owner of Thorney Motorsport Ltd. “They came to the workshop and spent considerable time planning the workspace to maximise its efficiency: all the others just gave us a catalogue. They are ideal as their products are designed perfectly for heavy use environments.”
The final motorsport workshop fit out exceeded expectations. The race bays were fitted out with tool storage cabinets and tool storage cupboards from the Famepla range with a customised paint finish matching Thorney’s green and black logo. The worksurfaces were manufactured with a black high pressure laminate ensuring durability and strength. Internally the drawers had partitioning, plastic trays, troughs and foam inlays ensuring quick storage and retreival – a pleasure to work in.
These tool storage cabinets and drawers are going to be opened and closed all day and even night – some drawers with loads exceeding 100kg – Polstore is the right choice if you are looking for a stunning finish with industrial heavy use strength.
If you have a motorsport workshop, having a well-organised and efficient garage is essential. From tools to spare parts to equipment, there’s a lot to keep track of. That’s where we come in with our specialised motorsport fitouts.
Polstore has been providing innovative storage solutions for various industries for years, and our motorsport workshops are designed with the unique needs of racing teams, mechanics, and automotive professionals in mind.
One of the key advantages of our motorsport workshops is the modular design. These storage systems are highly customisable, allowing you to create a layout that perfectly suits your workspace and specific requirements.
Whether you need extensive tool storage, shelving for parts and components, or a combination of both, our modular units can be configured to meet your needs.
Motorsport environments can be harsh, with exposure to oils, chemicals, and intense activity. Polstore’s motorsport storage fitouts are built to withstand these demanding conditions.
Constructed from high-quality materials such as powder-coated steel and durable polymers, these storage systems are designed to resist corrosion, impacts, and daily wear and tear.
Efficient organisation is crucial in a motorsport setting, where time is of the essence. Our workshop equipment features well-thought-out storage compartments, shelves, and drawers that keep everything neatly organised and easily accessible.
From small fasteners to large equipment, each item has a designated place, minimising clutter and maximising productivity.
Motorsport garages and workshops often have limited space, making efficient use of available areas paramount. Our workshops are designed to maximise vertical storage, ensuring that every square inch is utilised effectively.
Our wall-mounted systems, for example, keep valuable floor space clear while providing ample storage capacity.
For professional racing teams and motorsport businesses, branding and aesthetics are important. We offer customisation options that allow you to incorporate your team’s colours into the storage system design, creating a cohesive and professional look for your workspace.
Whether you’re a professional race team, a mechanic, or a passionate motorsport enthusiast, Polstore’s motorsport fitouts can transform your garage or workshop into a well-organised and efficient space.
