    Asked by SuprDave.

    • Answer One of the pictures shows that it can be used as two separate units. Another picture shows that it can be used as one full unit (thus, doubling the size. A third picture shows it mounted to the ceiling & wall. A fourth picture shows it mounted from the ceiling, if you have a ceiling that is sloped on an incline. A fifth picture shows the unit mounted in both parallel & perpendicular manners with 2”x4”s. (*I have a similar unit, by MuscleRack & installed it with 2”x4”s. Make sure that you have lag bolts & secure everything to the ceiling joists-*unseen if you have a finished ceiling, so you would need to locate the joists with a stud finder or equivalent & make pilot holes to make sure that you found the joists, & not blocking/plumbing/electrical/HVAC). **Additional note(s): •Try to not hang the unit(s) from the same joists that the garage door is hung from (excessive weight issue). •Newer homes use I-Joist composite material (different hanging system is required). •Using 2”x4”s helps distribute the weight. •Get the correct length lag bolts that can maintain the weight. •Older homes usually utilize 2”x8” or larger joists, but may not necessarily be in a straight line. Bowing & warping occurs over time, & sometimes the joists just won’t be 16” on center. Hence, pilot holes. -Fill in pilot holes that didn’t hit with joint compound.. ***It looks like it can be used in numerous configurations. Take your pick! ****I’m not affiliated with this company, Best Buy, or anyone else. Just trying to lend some friendly advice/information. You can always watch a few videos on YouTube for more tips & information. Good luck!
