Full details

FAQs

How many bikes can one Stashed Spacerail hold?

A single Stashed Spacerail unit can hold up to eight bikes. The system is expandable, allowing you to add more rails if needed.

Is this suitable for electric bikes (e-bikes)?

Yes, the universal hooks and heavy-duty construction are designed to accommodate e-bikes, along with all other types of bicycles.

What is the weight limit per hook and per rail?

What tools are needed for installation?

Installation requires basic DIY tools, including a drill, screwdriver, and potentially a stud finder to locate ceiling joists. The system is designed for simple attachment using screws.

Can I install this on a suspended ceiling?

How much space does this system save?

What is the warranty period?

Troubleshooting

Bike hook is stiff or difficult to rotate.

Ensure no debris is obstructing the hook mechanism. A small amount of appropriate lubricant may help, but check the manufacturer's recommendations first.

Rail seems loose after installation.

Immediately check and tighten all mounting screws. Ensure the rail is attached to solid ceiling joists and not just drywall. If issues persist, re-evaluate the mounting points.

Auto-lock function not engaging properly.

Verify that the bike is positioned correctly on the hook according to the instructions. Ensure the hook mechanism is clean and free of obstructions.

Experiencing difficulty hanging a particular bike type.

Confirm that the bike's frame is compatible with the universal hooks. Adjust the hook position or the bike's angle during hanging if necessary. Heavier bikes may require a more deliberate placement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain the Spacerail, regularly check that all mounting screws are tight and that the rail and hooks are free from debris. Clean the components with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
