Tools and Hardware Reviews of HyLoft 540 45-Inch-by-45-Inch Overhead Storage System, White
Customer Review: Highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
I would recommend this to anybody, especially if they have taller ceilings in their garage. My garage only has 8' ceilings, so I couldn't extend the shelf down to the bottom for the most space, but it still has a surprising amount of space up there. Installation was easy - the hardest part was finding the joists. My stud finder just wasn't able to read anything through that thick 5/8" ceiling drywall, so I ended up just going up in the attic and measuring to make sure I got things right. I would recommend getting socket bits for your drill to drive the lag screws into the joists much easier.
Shelf is very sturdy, and makes great use of otherwise unused space.
Customer Review: Satisfied with HyLoft Overhead Storage System
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my third purchase of the Overhead Storage System. I installed several of them in our KC home several years ago. Our Albuquerque home is severely storage challenged by not having a basement or attic storage. I initially installed four of the units over the garage door. In a years time we had out grown that so I installed three more units!
I have found the assembly to be very straight forward. The packaging of the system is first class. The hardware is packaged in a divided plastic container - very well organized. A few choice extra parts are contained in another package.
First quality product, well thought out and very good instructions.
Customer Review: Worth every penny
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been looking at these for quite a while and finally bought the HyLoft (vs. the more expensive brand with the pulley). This was so easy to install - the hardest part by far is finding the studs and marking where to nail/drill. I installed this in under two hours by myself without any help from my husband! The instructions are amazingly clear with every screw and nut individually labelled and packaged.
Make sure that your studs aren't futher apart than the length of the wire screens - mine were by about an inch and a half. Luckily the downrods can bend a little bit.
I LOVE having our clamshell off the floor. Highly recommend.
Customer Review: My Arms are tired- overhead stoarge system!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought new house and liked thsse so much the last time I bought them that I bought them again.I bought two of them this time. The first one took me about two hours to put up (yes I was goofing around while doing it) and the second one took me about 40 minutes. As you are putting them up they seem like they will not be sturdy, but when you are done, they are pretty solid. I love the way it lets me get the storage off of the floor and out of the way. I believe that a garage is a place to park your car, and these help reclaim that space. Highly recommended, get them on sale and try to not pay shipping. But your arms will be tired from working overhead!Customer Review: Excellent product for the price and easy to install
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased 3 systems last fall and was very pleased with the product. The price was reasonable for the system after researching similar products elsewhere. Very easy to install no matter which way your trusses go. I went further with the system by installing it close to the wall and adding a 2x4 just to make it more sturdy. I do have one installed away from the wall and it works well but you can get more stability by anchoring it to a 2x4 on the wall. About a month ago I purchased 2 more systems and my garage storage looks great. I even pleased my wife with the results. I recommend this product and will definetly purchase more down the line.
