StoreYourBoard Single Kayak Ceiling Rack, Adjustable Storage Mount, Overhead Garage System

Does as it describes. Drilled pilot holes first, then drilled the screws in. Solid, user friendly design. Use a pen or sharpie to dot when the screws go before drilling pilot holes, that way everything lines up easy.

Easy to install and keeps kayak in place, can adjust the height,

We needed more room in our small two car garage for another car. We didn’t want to get rid of our kayaks and these work perfectly. Quick and easy to put up and very sturdy. Our kayaks even have indentations where the oars normally sit when not rowing. We used those indentations as our measurement points and installed the bars on the ceiling at the same distance. This makes it even more secure since the kayaks sit on the bars at those indentations sites. There is also plenty of room for the oars to sit on the bars as well. It gave us another several feet to use in the garage once we had both kayaks on the ceiling. We used two sets of bars and faced them towards each other. I was scared that they would get bumped and fall off onto my car (this was a needless worry because they are secure, but just in case). The cross bars come off, so getting them down is a breeze with two people…one to hold up the kayak and one to take the bars off. I highly recommend these even if you have a lot of space. I gets your toys off the floor and gives you space! Btw, we still have to fix the light, so don’t laugh at our temporary fix.

These racks seem well made and do the job. I use them to hold up a Thule Motion 16 cu ft car top cargo box. Due to the orientation of my ceiling joists, the bracket is attached to the ceiling in line with the length of the cargo box, and even though the lag bolts are tightened quite firmly, the box does drop down a bit on the unsupported side rather than being parallel to the ceiling and floor, as shown in the pics. It seems to still be fine, but looks a bit precarious. This would not happen if the brackets were oriented perpendicular to the load. I use the cargo box's roof rack clamps to hold the box in place on this rack, and that works well.

We wanted an easy storage system for our xxl Thule box and this is perfect for it. I know they are made for kayaks but it definitely is the best option for the storage boxes as well.
