Great storage system that fit my storage needs. I was able to install this by myself, but it was a challenge! My advice when putting this together- read the instructions thoroughly first, then take your time assembling the shelving. Test fit all pieces and locate your studs first. I used long deck screws to tack the mounting plates to the walls. My garage was framed by a nearsighted carpenter! Tacking the plates to the wall helped me determine spacing before I committed myself to drilling big holes in my sheetrock. I love the open-concept rack system; this will be so easy to clean with an air compressor. I will definitely purchase more units in the future!
