FLEXIMOUNTS 12-inch-by-72-inch 2 tier Wall Shelf Garage Storage Rack Wall Mounted Floating Shelves,1x6ft ,Black, 2-Pack

We used these for storage in the garage. They are very solid and look good. We added 1/8in ply one the shelves for ease of standing power tool cases on the shelves.

2x6ft is deceptive, really 4x3 foot shelves that won’t quite connect in 24 in stud config. Shelves are not well in place even with Velcro. Very big open grid config means everything pretty much needs to be in a bin or it will fall thru. Some missing spots on the powder coat. Still though is sturdy and fairly useful and was a relatively inexpensive option.

still used them but they are not 6ft in length. item arrived box contains 4x 3ft sections equaling 12 feet of shelving not 2 6 foot sections. May still return.

I purchased a 12”x36” shelving set to use on my garage wall. The set came with 4 shelves and 8 brackets. This allows for some flexibility in layout. I decided to build two 6’ sections. The brackets are heavy duty as is the wire mesh shelf, a step or two heavier than traditional white wire shelving you’d see in a closet. I had a few dislikes. Per the instructions, the brackets are to be mounted on wall studs for maximum sturdiness. My garage wall studs were 16” on center. Since each shelf section is 36” with 2 brackets, this made for an awkward spacing. I had to choose between spacing the brackets 32” apart, leaving a weak spot in the middle, or 16” apart, leaving large overhangs on either side. The instructional videos I watched all seemed to use 16”, so that’s what I built. The kit comes with 3” lag bolts, 3 per bracket. Overkill maybe? It’s a good amount of work to wrench these large bolts into the wall. The wire shelves have 2 ½” x 4” openings. Small items such as spray cans or oil bottles will fall through. I had to order plastic shelf lining to make it usable. The kit came with Velcro straps to hold the shelves in place on the bracket. These straps just don’t work as intended. I’ll buy some white zip ties instead. All in all, I like the sturdiness but probably would have used lightweight wire shelving instead.

We put these up in our garage for overflow storage. These are wire shelves, not for little items that might fall through. Very, very study. We bolted them right into the studs, even though some shelves cantilever as much as 20 inches. They can do that, they are so strong. Be aware, the shelves are 3 feet in length, so the package which is described as 2 x 6 is actually 4 x 3. The mounting bolts are big enough to develop support for the shelf weight capacity. The socket set you have for your drill may not already have a socket big enough to fit these bolts. There are clever velcro strips included to affix the wire shelves to the brackets, so they dont slide sideways.

Perfect

These worked out great for my application. They were relatively easy to install, the hardware is of good quality, and they are sturdier than I even imagined. The template and level included were not great, and my stud spacing required some custom spans of the brackets, but using a studfinder and my own level worked out fine.

The brackets no doubt have vertical strength but lack horizontal or torsional strength. Could someone please give me a real piece of metal for the price? And what holds the shelf to the bracket? A 3/4 inch nylon (or similar) Velcro band that doesn’t even get near as tight as I want. Yes, it’s hours faster than building your own, no, it’s not better than you could do if you put some time in.

Very sturdy and hold lots of heavy tubs and boxes

I installed in the garage the HyLoft before and thought I try those ones for the laundry room. Installation is the same as before, check where the studs are and mark your drill points, drill and screw in. I do not like the movement of the shelf base. They added some Velcro bands to fix it in place but that’s not an elegant solution. The HyLoft have a clip at the back which is not really visible (so better than those ones here). Beside that they are strong enough and do the job.
