Q:I have a concrete subfloor (ceiling of garage is concrete) - could I secure it to that?
by|Apr 20, 2023
2 Answers
Answer This Question

A:  as long as you understand the process of drilling into concrete, the type of anchors you will need, etc., of course you can secure this rack, and probably much stronger than securing into any wooden ceiling joist. Go for it!

by|Apr 25, 2023

    A:  The manufacturer does not specify mounting to any material other than wood studs. Contact them for guidance. www.gladiatorgarageworks.com. In the USA, call 1-866-342-4089 Mike

              A:  Yes but you will need to think it through. You will need to find studs then layout your screw pattern. I used clamps to hold parts Together while assembling.

                Q:Maybe it's a dumb one... but is a ceiling going to be able to support this + the 750 pounds of weight? To clarify, this would go on the ceiling of a garage, where the bedroom is above the garage.

                Answer This Question

                A:  The two I have installed in my garage are still there despite the load of stuff that are on them.  Follow the instructions and you should be fine.  The majority of the load from the above bedroom is going down the walls while the rest is evenly distributed across the joists.

                by|Mar 24, 2023

                  A:  Yes, if installed according to the instructions. You must ensure that the anchor bolts securing the horizontal mounting brackets are driven into the center of the ceiling/floor joists.  You cannot use any type of drywall anchor or toggle bolt. Best way to locate center of ceiling/floor joists is by using a good quality stud finder. 

                  by|Mar 27, 2023

                    A:  Hello CWebb, if the ceiling joist of your garage are 4 inches height or more (2" x 4" boards) and they are 16" apart on center. It will support 750 pounds.

                    by|Mar 24, 2023

                      A:  Yep, screw its into studs 

                      by|Mar 26, 2023

                        A:  The brackets on top of the shelf has to screw into the studs that are holding up the sheetrock in your garage, as well as supporting the floor above your garage. All you need to do is determine is the direction of your studs and you're in business. If you're struggling to figure out how to mount these shelves, hire a company to put in the first one, then copy them. They are not that expensive! BTW, unless you are storing barbells and weights on your shelves, 750 lbs. seems a little excessive. But just remember, every support bolt must screw into a stud in the ceiling joists.

                          Fairly easy to build, needed help to install. But what a huge space saver. Well built and study.

                          Outstanding durability and quality storage system
                          Very impressed in the quality and overall durability of this storage system. Had all three installed personally and perhaps trusted my own quality work over hiring a handyman knowing it’s installed and aligned perfectly. Assembly was very easy but the instructions could really use an improvement. The fonts can be larger for readability. Ended up Youtubing a lot for the install. In my opinion, the quality workmanship of this product is superior against other racks I’ve seen installed or displayed at other stores. Overall, very happy and satisfied. Shipping was fast and items were intact.

                          Installation straightforward
                          Haven’t loaded it up yet, but installation was straight forward. The middle verticals won’t always line up exactly 48” with limitations given the slot spacing on ceiling bars but don’t sweat it too much. There is some tolerance there. I used a drywall lift to raise the 96” platform sections and it was a piece of cake.

                          Good option. Other places may have the one with only 4 posts, which makes it easier to access your stuff. This one will require all 6 to be installed. I actually installed the whole thing by myself but i do NOT recommend it. 2-3 people would be best.

                            These racks were great. Just be sure to have at least 2 people, ideally 3 for install. If you only have one extra set of hands, build no bigger than 4’ sections on the floor to raise up. You will never get the full 8’ bottom lined up with just two people easily.

                              The supplied lag bolts completely sheared after using the drill bit they provided to drill out pilot holes. Completely unusable.

                                DIY Done Right With Gladiator
                                This is the second house in 2 years that we have had these shelving units installed. This first house I paid someone to do it, and the second house I installed them with the help of a friend who is also a great handyman. We installed this 4' x 8' and three 2' x 8' shelves in about 4 hours and couldn't be happier with the results. Due to the way the rafters were running in the attic and things like the attic access steps and garage door supports I called the customer service line to get their advice on installing the storage rack supports in an alternate way. The Customer service rep was very helpful and knowledgeable about what I was asking and needed to do. This is a great product that immediately allowed me to clean up my garage. I would recommend this product to anyone.

                                There is no better way to instantly increase the amount of storage in your garage than with an overheard unit. Our garage is not massive so within a few months of moving in, the floor was covered from end to end. Worst of all, being in Texas brings out a lot of bugs that love to hang out in the items on the floor. I was initially worried about an overhead unit since the last thing I need is for the items to fall on our car. After reading through a ton of reviews, I decided to go with the Gladiator GearLoft setup and I couldn't be more pleased. The entire system feels incredibly sturdy and built to last. Every item is metal and the frame is significantly stronger than the other items on the market. Install was relatively easy, but it did take some time. I would not recommended doing it alone. I was able to do 99% of it myself but needed some assistance when it came to finally bolting it up. One really nice feature is the pieces that go into the ceiling are designed to work with any direction studs to make sure that you are able to place the rack in the perfect location. I've had the rack installed now for close to 3 months and I'm still very happy with it. The additional storage has been wonderful in making the garage look larger and more open. I will definitely be getting an additional unit to go on the other side.

                                  Difficult installation but great garage addition
                                  As many other reviews noted, the instructions could be better/clearer. For instance, a .5" socket will not work with the lag bolts. you actually need a 13mm socket (they are not the same). Little details matter. Also, two people is not enough to hang the loft. A minimum of three is needed it. If Gladiator could include a template for the ceiling joist, that would come in handy as it took me at least 2 hours to make sure the placing was perfect on the ceiling joist. Aside from the challenging installation, the product looks great and adds great storage above my garage door.
