Recommended Install Base Materials
Solid concrete is the best base material for installation. Make sure nothing is underneath the base material that could be damaged by drilling. Use the 3.75” wedge anchors that are included to install the rack into the concrete.
Before installing make sure the wall is strong enough to hold the rack fully loaded with bikes. Steel stud walls are not suitable for installation.
Installation
Sort out the parts to the rack and identify each of them accordingly. The 1” carriage bolts are for assembly of the rack and the 3.75” wedge anchors are for mounting the rack to the floor.
1. Lay out parts on the floor where unit is to be installed and be sure you have all the parts as stated in your packing list.
2. On galvanized cross beams, Place a mark three inches from each end. This mark will show you how far to slide the cross beam into the wall bracket.
3. Place first wall bracket on wall where you want to install the bike rack. Bottom of bracket should be at least 50” from ground. Mark holes for drilling.
4. Drill Holes into wall, put the wall bracket back up and insert wall anchors through holes in bracket and set the anchors. For setting the anchors and diameter and depth of holes, follow instructions sent with the anchors. Make sure bracket is level.
5. Thread 3/8” by 3/4” tightening bolts into holes in bracket. Insert crossbeams into bracket. Slide on arms and spacers, make sure arms are staggered. At end of last arm place 3” spacers and install end bracket, making sure cross beams are level.
6. If installing more than one set of Space Saver arms, continue from last installed wall bracket and repeat steps 3-5 above.
