Installation Sheet

1. Determine the ceiling locations

The garage overhead storage rack can be positioned parallel or

perpendicular to the wood ceiling joists/rafters. Determine the

application required for your desired installation. If drywall is on

the ceiling, use a stud nder to determine the joist/rafter locations

and mark with masking tape. For application requiring installation

of the brackets perpendicular to the joists/rafters, the maximum

distance between them is 24". The brackets included allow for a

24" maximum span. See gure for typical ceiling layouts. Mark

the location of the ceiling brackets on the joists/rafters or drywall,

making sure the vertical supports can be positioned between the

lag bolts used to attach the brackets. Position the center of the

brackets on a 48" grid as shown in gure.

2. Attach the ceiling brackets

5/16" x 3" Lag bolt

Using the provided drill bit (3/16"), drill all pilot holes in the center

of the joists/rafter. Two lag bolts must be used on each bracket

- one on each side of the vertical support. Mount the 6 ceiling

brackets (P2) using 5/16" x 3" Lag bolts (F2) (12).
