The HANDT Overhead Tote Rack offers a specialized storage method using rails to hang standard 27-gallon heavy-duty plastic bins by their rims. This 4-set configuration is designed to be modular, allowing the 14-gauge alloy steel rails to be connected for a long, continuous run or installed in separate sections of the garage. By utilizing the "dead space" above garage doors, this system helps keep floor areas clear for vehicles and larger equipment. The powder-coated finish adds a layer of durability to the steel components.
Since this system relies on a "lip-hanging" mechanism, it is only compatible with bins that have a reinforced, protruding rim; flat-edged containers will not stay in the tracks. Installation requires precise alignment with ceiling joists to ensure the bins slide smoothly and stay secure. It is also important to verify the clearance of your garage door path before mounting, as the height of the bins may interfere with the door's operation if placed too close to the tracks.
For those who need to store items that aren't in bins, such as bikes or ladders, the Wallmaster Bike Lift provides a functional pulley-based alternative.
