Finally, you are able to store your garage belongings easily and safely. This garage storage system allows you to store items without using a ladder. This new overhead hoist system will allow you to store file boxes, outdoor furniture, lawn mowers, big tools, snow throwers, holiday ornaments, tires, third row car seats and just about anything else you can imagine on the ceiling while keeping your feet firmly planted on the ground. This garage ceiling storage rack is designed to lift up to a 4 x 4 ft. deck (plywood, etc. - not included) to the ceiling ( 8 ' max.) with up to 250 pounds on top of it. Using a reduction gear worm drive that is hand cranked with the provided handle, this garage suspended storage rack is easy to raise when fully loaded. Includes heavy-duty steel support beams, 4' x 4' platform, winding axle, vinyl coated steel cable, hand crank and all mounting hardware. Lightweight truck canopies or convertible car tops can be lifted by using two 2' x 4' wood supports in place of the platform. Safely store your outdoor accessories off of the floor and out of the way.

Comments about Stacks and Stacks Heavy Lift Storage Hoist- Maximize Garage Storage: The provided lag screws are way too short. Most new attached garages are required to have double layered 5/8" FRT sheetrock. This results in a 1 1/4" thick ceiling. Taking into account the thickness of the arms this means that the lag screws are going thru 1 1/2" before getting into the ceiling joists. As the lag screws are only 2" long, the bite into the joist is only 1/2". This is not long enough. I went out and purchased longer (3") lag screws. Also, the length of the drop is not 8'. It is only about 7' 3". Pros Cons
Best Uses Comments about Stacks and Stacks Heavy Lift Storage Hoist- Maximize Garage Storage: The length of the provided lag screws used to attach the arms to the ceiling are 2" long. Most new fire codes require two layers of 5/8" FRT sheet rock in the ceiling of attached garages. Taking the thickness of the arm into account that means the lag screws are only going into the ceiling joists about 1/2". I don't think this is enough 'bite' to provide the required strength to hold the 250 lbs. I bought several 2 1/2 long lag screws which provide a better bite inot the joists. |
