I know tons of people do this, but just a warning to everyone out there: everyone has a different garage situation. Many homes are built to the bare minimum to pass inspection. If your garage only has a roof over it, especially one built of 2x4 prefabricated trusses, it may only be engineered to support a dead load weight of the roof itself, the strongest snowfall accumulation in your region, and 10 psf extra for hanging sheetrock. Now, does this mean your roof is gonna collapse if you put these all over your garage's ceiling and you get hit by a blizzard? Prolly not, cuz code requires a lot of this stuff to support *more* than the worst it should see, but if you *really* put a ton of heavy stuff up there? Well, maybe keep any bins full of brake rotors on the floor. :) Nice design! Great idea. Thanks for the video! Custom-built engineered I-joist for hanging!

@@Zod_JB Right, those bins hold bulky but light weight items as well as seasonal decorations. The guy who keeps shoving brake rotors up there had a few too many of them fall on his head, so now he keeps forgetting the lesson he should have learned and keeps repeating the same mistake.

You can add labels to the bottom of the totes to identify them. Also maybe mounting them horizontally is good so that you can access them from either side without having to take one off to access the inner one. I wonder if they will ever come off due to the long term vibration of the door.

@penguins96452 жыл бұрын
Just be careful when attaching to the "ceiling joists" - in many houses they run 1x2 strapping perpendicular to the joists for the purposes of hanging drywall - so anything you hang can end up being supported by the 1x2, which is much weaker than the actual joist you think you're attaching to. A quick peek into the attic to confirm the direction of the ceiling joists will tell you.
