Man caves, the place that is marked for handy work, sports games, and, most likely, a few cold ones. So how can you take your typical garage of a man cave and turn it into something a little bit more? The Fusion Electric team put together the logistical components that you will want to include.

A Work Bench Must – Outlets

Whether you need these for plugging in tools or a television, the garage man cave is never fully equipped without enough outlets. More specifically, you will want outlets that are found at bench height. We recommend placing outlets about 52” off of the floor. Remember, if you do not know what you’re doing, it is important to call an electrician when adding a new outlet.
