Excellent way to store my tools! It was extremely easy to install. I’d been looking for a way to organize my small tools and this is a perfect solution!

A great option to showcase to tool set up or organize tedious items around the garage. Although way more costly than a standard peg board shelf. It honestly brings a pretty cool wow factor in the garage. Very sturdy as well!

    Another Great Ryobi Product
    These are going to be great. I'm still waiting on the add on piece. What I have work great and they have been easy to install. I'm going to order more so I can completely organize all my Ryobi tools. My son and I have bought into Ryboi nation and these are going to be just another great add on item. Going to mount some in my garage and some in my workshop.

    Love Our RYOBI tools
    Wow! This set up is just Awsome. Been waiting for the RYOBI LINKs to come out. All of our tools are RYOBI and this will work perfect. We will need anouther set or 2. The rails come with simple instuctions on instalation. Tho you will need your own screws. The rails will hold up to 200 pounds and each hook has thier own weight limit. Most 50 pounds each. The little buckets will hold around 25 each. The hooks and bins all specify sepratley how much. This is going to be great to be able to have all our tools on 1 wall. Oh, and the hooks slide right in to the space, as you see on the 3rd picture.

    Nice features
    This item is two wall rails approximately 34 inches in length, you have to buy hardware to mount these to a wall. They aren’t included. The attachments are also sold separately and not included with set of two wall rails. Rails are made of plastic type material.........................................................................................

    Great Garage Organizer
    The LINK Wall Rails (2-Pack) is an inexpensive rail system that is easy to customize but the accessories are pricey. The instructions are okay but you need to think out and plan where you want to install the rails for height and arrangement. It works well for holding tools, etc. but it gets cramped for space if the tools are bulky. The location for the holes where you connect it to your stud are 16" apart but you can use anchors in the drywall too. The shelf accessories were great for the smaller tools whereas the larger tools were better supported with the hooks.

    RYOBI LINK Wall Rails (2-Pack)
    This is my review of the Link Wall Rails. This is a pretty neat system from Ryobi. One important thing is that this system will NOT mount on 24 inch studs (which is why I give it four stars instead of five). It is designed for 16 inch studs, and if you want to use 24, you will have to rig something up like I did. Also, If you put two sections together, you need to be pretty precise, or you will not be able to hang anything in the space where the two meet. Not actually a big deal, unless you did it wrong the first time. The attachments for it are really beefy and I like how they securely snap into the rail. Other than the price, it is a really slick system.

    This is a good system that is easy to customize, I just wish it was easier to remove the mounts
    This is a good system, worked well for my needs as I used the wall rails and a compartment bin and large tool hook. I was able to use the large tool hook with a framing nailer and drill/driver. Both were under the 50lb weight limit so I was fine. I found that to remove the hooks, once properly inserted by placing it on the wall from the top and sliding it down, simply hit the bottom of the hooks. I would like to see a simpler way to remove the items. I would also like to see a little bit of color or something to easily distinguish when this product is right side up. I installed it backwards by mistake, the only way I could tell it was upside down and when I saw the word link upside down afterwards. Despite the name Link, this does not actually connect or link into place with an additional wall rail. The location for the holes where you would fasten it to your stud are aligned with the other rails, that is how you add more links.

    Great product!
    This is a great garage storage system! This can be a waste of space unless you play around and become creative. I will be doing a lot more with this garage storage system.The only bad part is that the screws that come with the rails are garbage. I had one bend and 2 that had the heads broken off when screwing into the studs. I ended up using some deck screws that I had extra.

      Organize and find your tools.
      This is a much larger version of a pegboard and hook system. The rails are interlocking and set up for 16" centers so you won't have to hope and hit a stud on your second fastener location. The rails are just the anchors to the system. The options, hooks, trays, and other attachments make the possibilities of organizing your tools endless. Each rail is rated for 75lb and the attachments slide in and out between the octagon protrusions. Great system.

      Fantastic garage organization
      As a big collector of Ryobi tools, I was excited when this system was announced. The wall space in my garage shop doesn’t have much room left, but there’s a few spots where I added these to add some extra tool and shelf storage to my space. These went up easily in concrete walls with just a few screws. Attaching the accessories is as easy as just sliding them into place, and they hold the items very well. Each accessory lists how much weight it can handle, and it seems to easy hold whatever tool you’re using it for. I have a bunch of accessories I’ve been trying out, and the hardest part to this whole system is just figuring out what I want to put on it! There’s so many choices and I’m probably going to rearrange it a few times before I’m happy with it. I will be purchasing some more of these.

      Heavy duty holders
      This is a neat product and has many mounting possibilities. I had one area that did not have studs at 16" apart and was able to use the end mounting holes to mount it. I have an assortment of items to mount and found that a couple were not so easy to slip all the way in without a little force. The hangers are well made and the bins are a nice and thick material. I went and bought two more sets for I still had some more holders to use as in the picture.

      Sturdy wall rails with lots of options
      The Ryobi LINK Wall Rails 2-Pack is the base of the modular storage system. They are made of very sturdy plastic that is rated for 75 lbs./ft per linear foot when attached correctly. The wall rails are made in the USA with global materials and they come with a limited lifetime warranty. No screws are included for attaching the rails to the wall. Each of the rails have numerous locations for screws. I wish the screw holes allowed for a little more adjustment and the holes where larger as coarse thread drywall screws are all they would accept. Overall, the wall rails are very nice and I’m looking forward to customizing them with the large variety of hooks, bins, shelves, and other storage products. The ability to change as my storage needs evolve is going to be very handy. I can’t wait to see what else Ryobi comes up with.

      Extremely versatile
      I was looking for a storage system for my barn to hold a variety of lawn and landscaping tools plus other odds and ends. I came across the Ryobi Link wall rails and storage solution. Let me tell you, the amount of modular accessories available for this system is fantastic. There are hooks,shelves, bins, tool holders, etc. The rails each hold up to 75lbs then each accessory has a weight rating as well. The accessories fit snugly into the rails and the rails attach with screws to your wall. Expansion is easy as the rails just line up on the ends and are held together with the screws used to attach to wall.

      Ryobi wall rails
      I love RYOBI products. I own a blower, trimmer, chain saw and hedge trimmer. I needed to organize my wooden shed in particular so I can safely hang my tools and other RYOBI items. The wall rails made by RYOBI (US made) has started my organization. There are many hooks and tray systems that can easily be mounted onto these rails and I plan to use many of them to get my tools safely organized.

      Nice System
      The RYOBI LINK Wall Rails (2-Pack) is the basis for a versatile garage organizing system. Capable of supporting 75 lbs. per foot of rail, there are a variety of attachments available. Most useful for me are the various hooks, as now I finally have a good way to store my weed whacker instead of leaning it in the corner. I found that when I installed it at the right height for storing shovels and weed wackers, it was a bit high for the parts bins, So I will probably get a second set of rails to mount lower for the drills and screwdrivers and parts bins. When lifting tools up and out, sometimes the hook would come disengaged from the rail and fall off. There is a provision for a screw to attach them, so I will need to do that soon. This is an excellent storage system with many possibilities. I got lots of accessory hooks that I will review separately. Thanks Ryobi for another winner!

      Sturdy rails
      These rails are really nice. Very sturdy and easy to install the rails themselves. One set gives you about 66 inches of coverage, and multiple sets can easily be linked. Once the rails are up the possibilities are endless. Took about 2 seconds to install the first holder and just as easy to disassemble and rearrange the components. There are tons of different applications and all the hanging gadgets to make it your own. Easy to add on!

      Heavy Duty! Easy to Install! Good Value!
      The LINK wall rails are the anchor of the RYOBI LINK system. They are super durable and can definitely hold plenty of weight. The installation was very easy. I love that the anchor points of the rails are wide and give you plenty of room to add the anchor. If your off by just a pinch... NO PROBLEM. That anchor point design well allow you to still drill that screw into the wall. As you can see by my photos the LINK system is very versatile. I used a wide range of anchoring hooks that were provided for multiple tools. The other fascinating item that can be used is a garage storage unit and wall mounted cabinet. I haven't seen anything out in the market like this to date and I think its GENIOUS! Overall, the LINK system is 5 stars and I'd give it 10 if I could. The versatility and the options that you can use are plenty! Nice Job Ryobi! You get my "ATTA-BOY!" Award for this! RECOMMENDED!

      My Review for RYOBI LINK Wall Rails (2-Pack)
      These are amazing, they are not cheap but the ease of use and versatility are worth it. The peg board method is tried and true, but what ryobi did was make it look amazing and give all the options you could ever want. Very strong and well made. The holes are placed in the perfect spots to hit all your studs. I have been organizing everything and i love it.

      Not Impressed
      I’m not impressed with this Ryobi product as it compares poorly with the line of its power tools. Here’s why: 1) The design of this Ryobi Link shelf system is a poor use of space; 2) The side tool holders are spaced too close together to hold screwdrivers, etc in all the slots, (see photos); 3) the metal tool holder tabs are made of weak & cheap metal that bends easily, (see photo); 4) The spacing and configuration on the Link Rails reduces the amount of attachments it can hold. That’s the cons. Pros: 1) The shelves are made of strong steel; 2) The drill holders hold more than one drill or driver for those with more than two drills or drivers.

      Well designed storage system
      Selected the Link storage system to replace my old fashion hook rail storage. The wall rails are strong and durable. Each section of rail has 6+ holes for mounting on a wall. The mounting holes are appropriately spaced for wall studs. This system has a multitude of various hooks, shelves and storage units that are easily attached to the wall rail. Each added piece slides into the rail easily and firmly and their position can be changed as desired. The rail has a weight capacity of 75 lbs per linear foot. which easily accommodate larger lawn tools, trimmers, etc. Installation is straight forward and easy to accomplish with basic tools and appropriate screws and anchors depending on the type of wall mounting surface. The rails have a lifetime warranty. Overall I am very pleased with this storage system for organizing tools, trimmers, brooms etc into a functional and user friendly space.

      Foundation to a flexible storage solution
      Ryobia has come up with a modular storage solution for sheds, garages, and work areas anywhere. These are the base rails, which is the foundation of the solution. Use these two rails initially, then add more as you find the usefulness. These can be mounted horizontally or vertically, depending on your needs. There are a large variety of modules to hang off theses rails. In all cases, they use the triangle design between the octagons. Trays, shelves, tool hooks, utility hooks, you name it they’ve got something to meet your need.
