HyLoft Overhead adjustable Garage Storage Rack,Heavy Duty Steel Garage Storage System, 45-Inch x 45-Inch, White

We are the victims of an incredibly small garage. We finally took it upon ourselves to buy some shelving and move our clutter out of the way, so we could finally park the car in the garage. The Hyloft Overhead Storage System is a godsend. It fits easily on top of an automatic garage door, and supports about 250 pounds easily. They are an off white color that matches almost any paint job, and they are sturdy enough that a jiggle doesn't make you worry. I ordered these via Amazon Prime, and received them in about one business day (via 2 day shipping). The boxes are extremely heavy, so be warned. As far as installation, you will need a helping hand with these, and a great stud finder. We actually had a friend who is a bit more handcapable help us with installation, and we installed all four within an hour or so. They do have a bit of a rock in them by design, and you can adjust the height, but we found no need to, even with our garage door. I was really wary of these at first, but they are now an absolute must for the garage. Overall I would definitely recommend these to anyone who needs to take those towers of boxes off the garage floor and finally park their car in their garage. These are sturdy, simple, and a great deal for the price. We checked a lot of places first, and Amazon definitely has the best price, along with their usual guarantee. I have already recommended these to my friends.

This storage unit is easy to install and quite sturdy. Once you find the studs in the ceiling it goes up in no time flat. I am using it to store a roll up mattress and three storage bins. It takes otherwise wasted garage space and converts it to useful storage. It’s a great deal for the money. I really cannot understand how the same product that I found so useful, easy to install, and sturdy can get negative reviews. I can only surmise that some people may have installed it incorrectly. Did you make sure you screwed the bolts into studs? It won't mount securely with mere anchors so don't even try that. Also, negative reviews for mishandling by shippers is not the fault of the manufacturer. They are very customer friendly and attentive to any and all inquiries. Once again FIVE STARS.

This product seems like a good value. It does provide a nice amount of storage space in a previously unusable area of my home: the garage ceiling! I will be using it to get a few items off my garage floor so it won't be so cluttered! Installation: I installed the product by myself - as the packaging indicated this was possible. It took about 45 minutes. It was not a difficult install by any means, but as usual, as second pair of hands would have made it easier. The biggest key to a successful installation is making sure you are driving the lag bolts into joists and not drywall only. Use a stud finder if needed. It is also possible to use a small drill bit and "search" for the joisted by drilling small holes, but this is not ideal and should be avoided if possible as it will leave several small holes in your ceiling! You'll need either a wrench or socket for the installation; I used a socket in my cordless drill to drive the lag bolts. This makes installation much easier. After that, the installation is pretty straightforward: just bolt the pieces together as indicated. Usage: The product seems quite strong. The load claim is 250LBS. It supports my 185 LB frame easily! The product feels very strong vertically, but it does wobble a little side-to-side. I don't think this is a big deal, but I'm going to buy some small brackets at the home improvement store and mount them to the Hyloft and the wall to eliminate the wobble. (I mounted my Hyloft in the corner of the garage, so walls are nearby.) This is probably not necessary, but it will give me more piece of mind! I'm happy with the purchase. It does exactly what it claims to do at a reasonable price. It has helped eliminate some clutter from my garage. I'm giving it 4 starts instead of 5 due to the side-to-side wobble.

I just needed a simple storage solution to hang stuff on the garage ceiling and this has provided just that. I have mounted it onto the ceiling joist (studs) and it was quite simple to mount with a ladder, drill, and impact driver. It does wave side to side as you put stuff on it, but I feel confident it will be able to hold quite a lot of weight. In my case, I just stored paper boxes as I just needed floor and wall spaces. I think it is a great value for its cost. My only gripe is the fact that it is quite small, 45"x45" size. I wish it was a bit bigger for extra storage. The height is adjustable and can be hung much lower, but I needed it to clear my garage door. Pro: Simple design and installation Cost Sturdiness Con: Storage Size, width and length

I had been looking for a way to get my garage cleaned out. When these went on sale, I thought I would try a couple of them. They work great! Installation is easy, but time consuming and a little awkward. I installed them myself, but it would probably be better/quicker with two people. The instructions are a little thin, but after looking at all of the parts I was able to put it together in about 2 hours. The second one only took about 45 minutes. I didn't realize you could place the back of the unit snug against the wall because the picture shows it away from the wall. I left it about 3 inches from the wall because I didn't want to redrill the bolt holes, but if I did it again, I would place the back closer to the wall. You do need a little room on the sides for over hang. It seems to be qutie sturdy and well made. It sways a little bit when it wasn't loaded, but seems like a tank now that I connected the two units together and loaded them up. My only regret is that I didn't buy two more units at the great price of $40. They are back up to $60 so I guess I'll have to wait to finish my garage. It is a great product even though it is a little pricey.
