The StoreYourBoard Ladder Hoist is a robust storage solution that provides a 150 lb load rating, which is higher than the 100 lb standard found in many entry-level kits. It utilizes high-tensile nylon webbing and reinforced steel brackets to manage heavy ladders or similar long items. The design focuses on ease of use, though a specific pulling technique is required to engage the brake and ensure a smooth descent.
The 4-pulley setup is designed to reduce the required pull force to roughly 25% of the object's actual weight. This makes it an effective tool for organizers who need to move heavy equipment frequently. The included braided synthetic rope is designed to resist fraying over many cycles of use, providing better durability than the yellow polypropylene ropes often found in budget alternatives.
It is important to note that this system requires 12 to 18 inches of vertical clearance above the ladder, making it less suitable for garages with very low ceilings. For those mounting to engineered I-joists, upgrading to structural screws can provide additional pull-out resistance when lifting items near the 150 lb limit.
- 10-foot adjustable webbing straps accommodate various ladder widths.
- Friction-based lock engages reliably when the rope is angled correctly.
- Steel mounting plates are designed to handle off-center pulls without deforming.
If you have several bikes to organize alongside your ladders, the RAD Sportz 4-Pack offers a high-value way to clear floor space for multiple items.
