LEGO Brick Wall - Organization for Custom Building

Here is a small slice of our custom building studio :) We like to organize our LEGO bricks by part type. It helps us source specific kinds of pieces a little faster than the sort-by-color method. What works for you?

When I was around 17 I organized the entirety of my LEGO collection, inspecting every brick for quality, partly to make building easier, partly due to OCD. Not a single age-yellowed white to be found! Everything is sorted by shape in large containers with movable dividers. I’m proud of it, but it’s still quite a space and time commitment if I want to build anything. :P

Those look like Sterilite drawers. True? In any case, can you provide some information on the smaller drawers you are using inside? They look quite useful.

I really like your way of sorting. Finding the right color is a lot faster than finding the right part type - but it's not used very often

[Thomasj]

What size are those drawers, and where did you get the organizers for inside the drawers?

Love what you guys have done for the last 6 or so years now but seems like you guys are straying off a little more now, if it means anything let me just say keep working hard and pushing forward with getting the studio done, if you make the content people will watch it! This once was the Lego youtube mountaintop and I will smile one day when this channel comes back for good

I can't wait to see a full tour of these new studios of yours, the organization of the bricks in each drawer is very nice, and the color sorting is not really necessary for most bricks, you need a 2X10 plate? Just go to the right drawer and choose the color that's right for you in there, nothing to it! Of course, choosing specialized pieces can take a little longer, but in all, it's well though of. And the motion sensor lights is, well, a bright idea! No need to work in the dark!

Very cool! Love it! I know those are very generic compliments but that’s all I can say.

What brand/type of LED light is that? Would love to purchase for my own LEGO room.

8:50 Man i would love to putt all those legos on a pile and start swimming in it!!

[empirebrickstudios]

Hmmm biggest Lego creation you guys have done so far, could it finally be the mini fig scale blockade runner😉 I hope so lol

Hello Brickvault, I too am just starting to organize my own Lego collection. And I was wondering if you could help me out.
I was wondering if you could answer this post by leaving a link to where you bought those drawers and organizers. If not, then at least their brand name so I could look it up myself.

Great system! Thanks for sharing friends! Xox

Que bonita colección envidia de la buena

[brickbears]

Wow you have so many bricks 😱!
I am trying to sort my bricks but I have a very small collection!

7:40 “adhere” is the word you were looking for!

I am currently planning my lego storage area & prefer the system you've adopted in this video over the one I was planning. If you're able to, can you please provide the info of the the shelving & drawers (including drawer inserts) that you use?

[teem]

@brickvault where are those motion lights from please?

[Ben-jppi]

What items did you use to make this? The shelves look like they’re 9”x9” or something but I can’t find that anywhere online. Want to make something like this myself, but am having troubles finding small parts containers that will fit inside the plastic shelf sizes I’ve seen.
