Hang your bikes on the wall, your way
Bikes on the floor take up a lot of room. This rail and hook system gets them up on the wall. You screw the rails in once, then put each hook exactly where your bike needs it.
How the system works
Each bike hook snaps onto a wall rail and slides along it. When it is in the right spot, you lock it. The lock holds the hook so a hanging bike cannot fall off.
You can mount the 3 rails in one row or in different spots. To fit more bikes into less width, stagger them: one hook a little higher, the next a little lower, so the handlebars clear each other.
Three helmet hooks keep helmets, a pump or a small bag next to your bikes.
Choose your kit
- 4-bike kit: 3 wall rails (about 41 cm / 16 in each), 4 bike hooks, 3 helmet hooks, wall plugs and screws. About 2.3 kg.
- 6-bike kit: 3 wall rails, 6 bike hooks, 3 helmet hooks, wall plugs and screws. About 3.2 kg.
The hooks are carbon steel with a plastic coating that protects your tires. The maker rates each hook at 34 kg (75 lb) and the rack at 136 kg (300 lb). They suit most mountain, road, folding, beach and kids bikes.
Check your wall first
Your wall matters as much as the hooks. Fix the rails into wall studs or a solid wall with the supplied plugs and screws.
- Do not fix them to gypsum board (drywall) on its own. Find the studs.
- Do not use perforated (hollow) brick.
- Bare latex-painted walls are not suitable.
How to put it up
1. Plan the layout
Hold a bike against the wall to see how much height and width it needs. Mark where each rail goes.
2. Fix the rails
Use a stud finder or a solid wall. Drill, fit the wall plugs where needed and screw the rails in level.
3. Add the hooks
Snap the bike hooks and helmet hooks onto the rails. Slide them into place and lock each bike hook.
4. Hang the bikes
Lift each bike onto its hook and check it sits firmly before you let go.
Care
Now and then, check that the screws are still tight and each hook is locked. Wipe the hooks clean if muddy tires leave grit on them.
In short
Three wall rails with sliding, locking bike hooks and 3 helmet hooks, in a 4-bike or 6-bike kit. Fix it into studs or a solid wall, and you need a drill and a screwdriver.
