FLEXIMOUNTS 2x8 Overhead Garage Storage Rack,Adjustable Storage Organization System,Heavy Duty Metal Garage Ceiling Storage Racks,400lbs Weight Capacity,White, Classic Series

I recently had the FLEXIMOUNTS 4x8 Overhead Garage Storage Rack professionally installed to finally clear out my cluttered garage floor, and it has exceeded all expectations. This heavy-duty system completely transforms wasted ceiling space into functional, rock-solid storage. Fleximounts Here is how it performs compared to the competition: Installer-Approved Design: I hired a professional to handle the mounting, and he immediately noted how much better this rack is engineered compared to other brands he has put up. The integrated wire grid-to-frame design means fewer loose parts to fiddle with, making it significantly more rigid and less prone to warping than multi-piece competitive frames. Fleximounts Unmatched Weight Capacity: While many standard ceiling racks on the market cap out around 550 or 600 pounds, the heavy-duty cold-rolled steel construction of the Classic Series safely supports up to 750 lbs. Fleximounts Massive Storage Volume: The dropdown legs adjust from 22 to 40 inches below the ceiling, giving you up to 105 cubic feet of storage space. This is perfect for safely holding bulky seasonal gear and large storage totes entirely out of the way.

This is a great storage solution. I have to admit that I was a little skeptical when they arrived. The boxes were lighter than I expected them to be. After opening up the box and laying everything out I was very skeptical. Everything seemed a little too light to me, not heavy duty enough. But I pushed on. The hardest part for me was locating the joists. My garage is drywalled and my ceiling is 10 feet tall. Between using a stud sensor and then the tried and true method of hammering little nails through the drywall locating the center and each edge of the joists. I wanted to put the lag bolts dead center in the joists. My joists ran perpendicularly to the racks. After I got the ceiling brackets up the rest was fairly easy. I assembled the racks into 2 pieces, not 1. I was working alone. I was able to get one section up and installed. Once the first section was up the rest was easy. After I got them installed, yes, they are a little on the light side but they are heavy duty enough for the job. They are light but well engineered, well designed. I swung from one of the brackets for a test. I weigh around 210 pounds. There is nothing to stop swaying from side to side. I installed this rack 2” off of a wall. I will mount (2) 8 foot 2X4’s between the racks and the drywall to stabilize it. I was able to complete this in about a day working alone. I’m 67 and I take a lot of breaks lol. Really it took about 3 hours per section. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase. Good value.

Easy to assemble with clear instructions included. Some minor damage like bent probably due to shipping but overall , this is a gem especially if you’re looking for a space in your garage. Very sturdy and very good quality. I installed it by myself and it took me 3 hrs. the challenging part is how you locate and find joists. Even if you have a stud finder it is very difficult so if you have access to attic, it makes it really easy. Take note! Use impact driver and a 13mm socket coz i find it very hard to install the lag bolts from ceiling joists using a regular drill. Going to buy again and I recommend this product.

The FLEXIMOUNTS overhead garage storage rack is incredibly sturdy and offers a ton of extra space—once it’s up, it really transforms the garage. However, it did take my husband and his friend quite a long time to install. The instructions are clear, but the process is definitely not quick, especially if you’re not used to ceiling mounts. That said, the finished result is solid, stable, and holds a lot of weight, so the effort was worth it. Overall, a great storage solution with a time-consuming setup

Good quality storage rack. I got the 4x8 version. If you are a DIYer, assembly is fairly straight forward. Lots of parts to assemble so plan your time accordingly. It's all metal and is heavy. I'm 60+ and was able to install by myself but just barely. You can assemble alone but final installation (hanging) really should be done by two able people. Also, don't assume your ceiling trusses all run the same direction or are equally spaced. Yes, they should be and that's what I assumed without checking before ordering. To my surprise the trusses ran one direction for the first 4 feet then switched direction for the second 4 feet. This odd configuration greatly increased the installation difficulty for me, so check your trusses before you order. In the end, I'm glad I bought this rack and enjoy having more floor space now in my garage. I'd recommend this product.

This was one of the best buys I’ve made in my life. Seriously, it fit exactly where I needed it to go and installation is very simple. It is rugged and strong.

These shelves are well made, packaged well, and arrived in perfect condition. They included all parts necessary for the installation. I installed a total of three shelves in my garage and they are sturdy and look good. The installation is slightly challenging and sorry you are not going to get a shelf installed in an hour. I am totally satisfied with these shelves.

I installed this 4x8 overhead garage storage rack to free up some floor space in my garage, and it has made a noticeable difference. Once installed, it feels very solid and secure. The rack provides a lot of storage space for items that don’t need to be accessed regularly, such as holiday decorations, storage bins, camping gear, and seasonal items. Moving those things overhead helped clear out a significant amount of floor space. The steel construction feels heavy-duty, and the rack holds multiple storage totes without any signs of sagging or wobbling. I also like that the overhead design makes use of space that would otherwise go unused. Installation does take some time, and having a second person helps, especially when lifting the frame into place. Following the instructions carefully and locating the ceiling joists are important steps for a successful installation. Pros: * Creates a large amount of extra storage space * Strong and sturdy construction * Great for storage bins and seasonal items * Helps keep the garage organized * Makes good use of overhead space Cons: * Installation can be time-consuming * A second person is helpful during assembly Overall, this rack is a great solution for anyone looking to organize a crowded garage. Once installed, it feels secure and provides plenty of storage without taking up valuable floor space.

This overhead storage was excellent price and it is exactly what we were looking for. It has 8 tires on it and 6 big storage boxes! Super sturdy!

The storage rack is very easy to setup, but probably needs 2 people to install. I’m not a handyman and the longest time was spent finding the studs on the wall. It will help a lot if you have some power tools, my hands & legs were so sore the next day as I don’t have power tools and have to tighten everything manually using the tools they provided. In the beginning during installation, I had to drill some holes to test for studs as my stud finder sometimes gave wrong readings. Once I know the location of the studs, it was easy to install. My wall studs (vertical) are 16 inches apart and there is a horizontal stud on top, while my ceiling studs are 24 inches apart. For the back of the rack, I screwed the ceiling bracket to the top of the wall, parallel to the stud. For the front of the rack, I screwed the ceiling bracket perpendicular to the studs on the ceiling. My son helped me by holding the ladder to make it steady, and lifting the wire grids as they’re heavy. Pros: * Smart design, hard to go wrong during setup & installation. For example, for the vertical brackets, there’s 2 of them, one with square holes and the other with round holes, if you make mistakes, the screw won’t fit in. * Strong, good quality, & durable rack * Hold 600 lbs. * Adjustable height * Comes with tools for installation * Fast delivery. When I ordered the 3x8 rack, delivery time shows 1 week even though I’m a Prime member, probably the item is not as popular as the 4x8 rack, which can be delivered the next day. However I was surprised when Amazon delivered the 3x8 rack in 2 days. Cons: * No extra screws, so don’t lose them * No diagonal support brackets, so it sways a bit horizontally, but I guess once you put some stuffs, it won’t sway anymore as the rack will be heavy. * No hooks included

Both racks were used for overhead garage storage. Very strong and holds large capacity of boxes and storage totes.

I recently purchased the FLEXIMOUNTS 3x8 Overhead Garage Ceiling Storage Rack1 and I must say, it’s a game-changer for garage organization. This heavy-duty metal rack, with a weight capacity of 600lbs, is not only well-built and sturdy but also offers a multitude of mounting configurations. The installation process was straightforward and took around 2 hours with two people. The package includes all the necessary hardware required for installation, which is a big plus12. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, making the assembly process a breeze. One of the standout features of this rack is its adaptability. Our studs were not spaced at the standard 24", but we were still able to install the top brackets perpendicular to the joists, using two screws per bracket. This flexibility allowed us to customize the installation to fit our specific garage layout. The rack’s design is impressive, with an integrated grid that makes it more stable and sturdy compared to others with separate frames and wires. It’s also height adjustable from 22" to 40", providing lots of storage. This feature is particularly useful for storing seasonal and unused items, freeing up valuable floor space in the garage. In conclusion, the FLEXIMOUNTS 3x8 Overhead Garage Ceiling Storage Rack is a high-quality, durable, and versatile storage solution. It’s well worth the investment for anyone looking to maximize their garage storage space.

Very pleased with the materials. The ceiling pieces can be rotated 90' so you can fit parallel or perpendicular to ceiling joists even though the instructions don't show this clearly. We used joists on one side and fixed to the studs in the wall as there was no joist overhead at the wall.
