FLEXIMOUNTS 4x8 Overhead Garage Ceiling Storage Rack, 2-Pack, 750 lb Capacity
Product description
The 4x8 format gives this FLEXIMOUNTS overhead rack a broad platform for storing garage items above the floor. Its black alloy-steel construction and integrated grid design bring the storage surface and frame together in one system.
With an adjustable 22–40-inch ceiling drop, the rack can be positioned to suit the space beneath it. That overhead placement helps free floor area for parking, work, or everyday access to garage items.
The system is rated to support up to 750 lbs and is tested at 1,200 lbs. A DIY installation template helps plan the layout before mounting.
Where it shines
Use the overhead storage area for seasonal belongings, equipment, and other items that do not need to stay on the garage floor. Keeping stored items elevated can help protect them from water on the floor while making better use of ceiling space. The adjustable drop gives you a choice of clearance beneath the rack, and the listed storage capacity is up to 105 cu. ft.
Compared with floor shelving, an overhead rack puts storage in an otherwise unused part of the garage, leaving the floor available for other tasks. The integrated grid design also combines the frame and deck rather than relying on separate frame and wire-deck pieces. The 4x8 dimensions are 96 inches long by 48 inches wide, creating a large storage surface for grouped items.
The essentials
The rack is made from alloy steel and finished in black. Its 22–40-inch adjustable drop accommodates different ceiling clearances, while the 750-lb rated capacity provides a defined load limit for stored tools and equipment. The product is also described as load-tested to 1,200 lbs, or 1.6 times its rated capacity.
Long ceiling brackets are designed to attach to two studs, and the structure uses six vertical posts. For installation, the system fits ceiling joist spacing up to 24 inches, when spacing is greater than 24 inches, it fits a 48-inch ceiling spacing. It is suitable for wood studs or joists and concrete, and is not intended for mounting to a metal wall. Use the included installation template to help plan placement and align the rack with the mounting structure.
Everyday use
This rack suits a garage where floor space is needed for a vehicle, projects, or frequently used equipment, while seasonal or less-used belongings can be stored overhead. For example, the adjustable drop lets you choose a position for boxed seasonal items while keeping a usable area below the rack. Plan the stored load around the 750-lb rating and mount the system to an appropriate support surface.
