Finally someone who installed a bracket perpendicular to the joist. Almost all demos here in utube has parallel joist.

So grateful for your informative video. We do not have wooden joists in our garage, - we have solid concrete, do you believe it possible to fit the rack ?

Hi, I would give the company a call and get their advice for the type of anchors they recommend. I found them to be helpful.

[@HunterTN]

The kits come with concrete anchors as well as lag screws.

How much time did it take to install?

Hi Peter, I just installed a set of these last week. I intend to install the other set I bought this weekend. In short, it took A LONG time to install. Let me explain. I was working with a close clearance with the garage door, so a 22 inch clearance. That's the minimum clearance of the fleximounts. When I first installed it the garage door hit it. I needed to move the rack back like 24 inches in order for the garage door lip to clear. That was my fault. After moving the brackets and trying it again, it was perfect. I really like the look and sturdiness of it. But over two days, I have to say I probably spent a combined 8 real hours working on it. Also, when it came to the time to actually lift up the shelf to attach to the hanging brackets, it was such a pain. I don't see how one person can do it by themselves. The bungee cord method of hanging one side by bungee cord while placing the other side was definitely helpful. I think now that I know the steps, this weekend it'll probably just take me 3 hours or so maybe.

is the squeaking camera at the end of every shot a dead giveaway that your wife is filming? or am i just being sexist? 😂

I hope your home is stick-built. Those ceiling-hung units are dangerous in a great majority of homes built these days.
