A garage is an area of your home just waiting for its smart space to be used! An organized garage maximizes the space you already have and saves you time by facilitating the easy retrieval of stored items. Bicycles are traditionally awkward to store and wind up blocking garage walk ways or end up in untidy piles.
Garage bike racks are designed to exploit three areas of your garage -
ceiling,
walls and
floors.
If you have a small garage with good ceiling height, then hanging your bikes from the ceiling will maximize your limited space. Depending on whether you are storing your bikes over winter and only using them occasionally, static hooks should do the trick. If you use your bikes more often consider installing a hoist system.
A small garage with plenty of uncluttered and accessible wall space is ideal for wall mounting. There are racks that will support your bike on the floor and racks that can be mounted higher up the wall for hanging your bikes vertically or horizontally. Make sure the wall you are using will support how you are going to mount the racks and that it will handle the full weight of the suspended bikes.
You can use floor standing racks if your garage has enough free floor space. There are no installation hassles and they can be moved around as required. Try and locate them away from your vehicles in case the racks are accidentally knocked over. Floor rest bike stands are another option to floor standing racks. They normally support two bikes and can be installed outside as well. They are easy for children to use and probably represent the design least likely to damage your bicycles.
