You need clearance to make it work. Worked for me with my shelves

I have something similar off amazon, but paid triple the price for something that looks more inferior. They work well though. I have my tires mounted through the center hub with the face towards the wall so it flexes less. My 22 inch tires and alloys are extremely heavy and they hold just fine when mounted to the concrete wall. You have to make sure you are using the correct bit to drill holes in wood or concrete so that the anchors sit in just snug before the bolt goes through. Too loose, the anchors aren't effective, too tight, you can snap a head while ratcheting or using an impact.

My floor space is rare in my 1-car garage, the more I can hang the better... as you can tell from the pic
*also I have the hanging bike mount for one of them for now to maximize space.

If I could, I'd hang my lawnmower, I even hung old cabinets just high enough that it clears the mower handle underneath.

Nice nice setup !

What hardware do you use to mount the recycling bin on the wall?

I just bought a 4'x8' 3/8" plywood from Homedepot few days ago and it costs me $47+tax. Even same size OSB is $37

How do you store yours?

In my trunk. Just kidding. Just in the corner of my garage stacked up. I have a two car garage with one car and motorbike in there normally.

I think most have the exact opposite mindset. Get them off the floor as high as possible to maximize floor space and still have space to to use the wall underneath.

I mount two sets in those CT tire racks high up in my garage. No problem getting them up and down but yes they are heavy to lift overhead. Not for everyone.

I use these PA hooks to mount random heavy stuff. Ladders, cast Christmas tree base, etc plus have a few more ready for the next thing to mount

Thanks everyone, ordered 2x2 tires and bikes hopefully hanging up, wait it's summer!

Lucky you and everyone else that has Summer, here in Raincouver we get Rain all year long.

A 1x3 for the top of the bins (literally bought 4x 0.40c straight metal brackets to hold them up), spaced out underneath with a bevelled 2x4" so that they sit flush-ish, and not hanging down at an angle.

I don't pay for materials, I go to the jobsite bin and take what I need (new development area).
The builder throws out a lot of good stuff, even full sheets of plywood with a 2"x2" corner missing!

You shouldn't mount them to drywall. It will end up crumbling the gypsum. Drill a pilot hole in a stud and use a solid galvanized lag bolt.[/quote]

FYI galvanizing is just a zinc coating for rust protection. It doesn't make the bolt any stronger. It is a cool sounding term though. I will always remeber when I was a kid, and in pro wrestling the commentator would say with such enthusiasm "he just hit him over the head with a galvanized steel bucket!!". As if that made it hurt more... Lol

Here you're metallurgical lesson for the day

in the garage, there should not be a need to use galvanized

This might be a dumb question but how long of a fastener do you use with the plywood? ½" or ¾"? Been hesitant to do something like this and resort to a 2½" screw through the drywall into a stud

I used M6 or M8 *lagbolts* & a washer. They're a hex head, used 4" long, since I used 3/4" plywood.
Since the plywood is wide enough to catch three studs; depending on placement in your garage, I had four bolts into each. 3 up top, one at the bottom. (you can see it in the pic, between the top Toyota wheels)

Overkill? Possibly. But I wanted it solid for any set of wheels. I tested with a set of HEAVY highlander 19" wheels & tires. It was fine.

I got the same one and put in up using the (GRK FASTENERS #10 x 3-1/8") as i had them leftover from earlier project.
Now I figured out the stud as there as a another hook just above it. when i use the stud finder, it seems to not detect the frame every 16 inches in my garage.

How do i go about it?

If you cannot find the stud every 16 inches, try 12 inches from the stud you already found. You can also use a hammer and thicker nail. It will just make small holes, but it's not end of the world. I also saw some garage are fixed studs each 24 inches.

i may have crushed the drywall beind lower right tire a bit as i drilled the screw in an angle at the stud behind it. the drywall is bit crumbly but the screw is holiding itself 3 inches into the stud.

The included anchors are for concrete. I use 14x4 square head wood screws for wooden studs.

I hang them by the barrel because it's more balanced than by the center bore.

(with a southern accent) Dang! That's one cleeeaaan wheel!

They only provide 7 anchors/bolts ?
