Customer Reviews for Rubbermaid FastTrack Garage 48 in. Hang Rail Track Storage System

Shed Organized! We found most of our landscaping tools easily fit on one 84 inch rail. I used the multi purpose and power tool hooks, and returned a few others that didn't seem as useful. This was easy to install and makes finding our items quite a bit easier. Instead of buried behind the tractor, coolers or wherever the last person dropped them they are at eye level. One long piece holds quite a few items. I originally purchased two, but returned one unused. The hardware (screws etc) are cheap; use a better quality and save yourself a bit of a headache. Pros - Sturdy, easy to assemble. Con - Black surface scratches easy, but it's a shed so no big deal. Screws could be better quality.

I think i went a little overkill on screwing the rail to the wall using 10 screws to studs and 6 screws to wall ancors but it is not going anywhere. A little tricky on holding the 84" on the wall and using a sharpe to mark where to drill holes. Definitely need another set of heads to help. Totally interchangable which is cool. I bought extra hooks thinking i wouldnt have enough but totally surprised how many shovels you can hang on one hook. I installed the 84" today with a few hooks. Already went back to HD today and bought another 84" rail that i plan to hang tomorrow. Already have a couple more ideas where to hang next. Great product and great idea.

I already had three of these with various hanger attachments in my garage to store my tools. I actually bought this one for a different purpose, every time my passenger door opened it hit the drywall and left a mark. I installed this one on my wavy about three feet from the bottom of the floor - no tool hanger attachments - to protect my wall and the edges of my car door. Works great and would recommend these for either purpose.

super easy to install. Find the studs and put two screws into each stud that the track spans and you are done. The black plastic part slides on pretty easy, but if there is no space it will snap down onto the metal track. Organize the garage fast and and affordable.

Needed a solution for storing my guitars. Found this rail and added 3 cooler hooks.

The rail itself has holes every inch, top and bottom, making it easy to install against studs and also to drywall using anchors (not included). I liked the finished plastic covering that gives a more dressed up appearance. Some reviews have complained about the hardware package, so I didn't buy it but used the screws and anchors I had on hand and had no issues with mounting. I have 8' (two units) in my garage currently, planning to add another. I have used the same rail for supporting 3 bikes on a wall for the past several years and that has remained rock solid. While the price for the rail plus vertical shelf supports plus shelving brackets may seem a little high, it is certainly cheaper than other manufacturers "wall installations" and does an awesome job. No complaints!

The tracks are very easy to install,my GYM is just admire how neat the system looks the bike hook looked good, It hold the front wheel perfectly.The hooks hang securely

Bought the longer piece and it was easy to cut to fit where we needed it.

I would have rated this a 5 except the hardware to hang wasn't included so I had to make a trip to the store to get screws. Instructions were vague. Ended up putting 10 screws in the studs. Very secure feeling. I have an extension ladder hanging from it. So nice to get it off the floor & out of the way. I'm going to get another and hang some of my other tools. I would definitely recommend it.

Considering the only handy-man skill I have is to Pay the handyman, I can't say how impressed I was with the ease of installation for this product. Took me no time to get it up and mounted. Works great. I also purchased several hooks which also work wonderful. Now everything is up off the garage floor and neat. The only caution I would give is this. Make sure, double sure you measure twice, make sure everything is level BEFORE you drill any holes in the wall.

I had no trouble with installation, probably because I didn't read the flawed instructions first. I used a stud finder and screwed the rails at angles at the starts and ends, and straight in between. It may not be any more functional at first than just using hooks, but you don't have to worry about finding studs again once it's up. Also, you won't end up with a wall full of holes over the years. You should get back your small investment just with the neater appearance if you sell your home. Photo is (2 ea) 48" rails in tandem.

I just installed three 48 inch rails and one 84 inch rail. Took me all of 45 minutes. It could not have been easier. It's the most economical system on the market. I agree that the last hole on the rail does not line up but seriously, is that a huge deal??? I just made sure to use an anchor at the end and I double dup on the three other studs that I did hit, I put one screw in above and below, problem solved....I'm hanging extension cords and shovels not 100 lb. dumbbells! Love the product.

What a great product...easy to install and clear the clutter in my garage. I love how everything is interchangeable and i can move things around as my needs change

This was an EXTREME garage install. More than the average person would probably use. 25 rails 30 shelves Need I say more?! One of the rail caps was broken and the company replaced it with no problem. Fairly easy to install. Glad the rails were changed to have the 1" spacing between holes. The flexibility of the system is great. I was even able to create a workbench area. Had to cut some rails and shelves to size. Using a hacksaw and file, it worked well. Installed black caps on the ends of the shelves for extra safety.

I installed the 48" FastTrack rail with 1 hook for my string trimmer, 1 hook for the powerhead of my pole say, 1 universal hook for the saw section, and 1 sideways bicycle holder. All equipment fits nicely in the hooks (even that polesaw head on the universal) and the bike rack seems very sturdy and well spaced from the wall. Installation was easy for me and should be for anyone with basic construction skills. I used the hardware pack included with the rail, installing screws directly into my studs on 16" centers and using the supplied anchors between as depicted in the instructions. For extra support I installed more anchors and screws (enough to fill all the top holes and half the bottoms) since I had some hardware leftover from another project. All you need is a cordless drill, 1/8 bit, 5/32 bit, phillips bit, hammer, tape measure, and a level. The larger bit is for the supplied anchors, the hammer to drive them flush, and the smaller bit for pre-drilling the holes in the studs (makes screw installation much easier). Tape and level are to line it all up.

Expensive but well made and easy to assenble. Loved it, would buy it again & highly recommend.

I don’t know who is giving bad reviews on this system. It is great for the average home owner. I am a 62 year old woman and hung these myself 10 years ago, then again for one daughter, and just now for another daughter’s garage. It is a fantastic system!

Amazing design that allows you to constantly readjust with ease how you store things on the wall. I use these at my warehouse and at my house and it is by far my favorite product for its use. It is a little pricey but for me it is worth it. I hope eventually they design one that you can put on the ceiling with attachments that can slide back and forth for hanging bikes, etc.

Easy to install and looks very good.

As someone who deals with engineers frequently in my job, I already know they’re the dumbest, smart people in the world. How on earth an entire company can write instructions stating, “this product must hit 4 studs,” while simultaneously making it 48” long and think it’s good design is beyond me. A standard stud is 16” stud to stud and there is 1/2” on both ends of this 48” rail making the holes 47” apart. It’s impossible to install this on 4 studs, this should be false advertising.

Great for garage or shed storage! Use in smaller spaces or make double level!

Great for garage or shed storage!

Rubbermaid should have made this product 48” from end hole to end hole. Inevitably your last hole will not match up with a stud. Rubbermaids typical response if you have to line up with the end of the stud but doesn’t address their mistake in the directions. Everyone who bought this product deserves a refund.

The Rubbermaid FastTrack system has been working for me for 7 years. It's easy to install and the additional parts are there to customize. No need to look for something new when the FastTrack system does the job, looks good and has already figured out how to build out and/or add on as my needs have changed.
