Bradyl Storage Solutions, a trusted leader in the multifamily storage industry, is proud to introduce black as the newest door color for the Bradyl Bin™, the company’s signature line of private, fully enclosed storage units for apartment and condominium communities.
Black has emerged as the defining color of 2026, named Color of the Year by major paint brands and embraced throughout multifamily design — from matte black hardware and fixtures in residences to black-framed glass, railings, and lighting in amenity spaces and parking structures. With the addition of black to its door color lineup, Bradyl Storage Solutions enables developers, architects, and property managers to carry the same modern design language into resident storage areas, transforming a traditionally overlooked back-of-house space into a seamless extension of a building’s aesthetic.
Beyond its bold, contemporary look, black is a practical choice for the high-traffic environments where Bradyl Bins™ are typically installed, such as parking garages and lower-level common areas. Black conceals everyday scuffs and minor wear far better than lighter colors, helping storage units maintain their like-new appearance with minimal upkeep. Combined with the Bradyl Bin™’s heavy-duty corrugated galvanized steel construction, the new black finish delivers durability and sophistication in equal measure.
“Residents and designers alike are gravitating toward black because it reads as premium, intentional, and timeless,” said Lindsay Steiner, Co-Founder of Bradyl Storage Solutions. “Storage shouldn’t look like an afterthought. By offering black, we’re giving properties a storage solution that matches the design standard of the rest of the building — and giving residents a secure, attractive space they’re proud to rent.”
Resident demand for better storage is well documented. According to Bradyl's independent consumer survey, 98% of apartment tenants chose Bradyl Bins™ over wire mesh storage, and 94% said they would pay more each month for the privacy, security, and polished appearance Bradyl Bins™ provide. The new black finish builds on that appeal, pairing the Bradyl Bin™'s fully enclosed, secure design with a look residents increasingly associate with upscale, well-appointed communities.
