Lumber Storage System |
Industrial Quality For Smaller Shops
To keep lumber from bowing and warping, it must be stored Ďat. Our system makes maximum use of space. The quality is industrial and the components are nearly impossible to bend.
The 18" Bracket supports 300 lbs. at the tip and 600 lbs. along its entire length, which means that 3 brackets will hold 1800 lbs. The shorter brackets will support even more. The capacity of the system is effectively limited only by the strength of the wall and the attachment.
The wall straps are heavy-duty industrial products, not typical consumer items, made from 3/16" thick rolled steel, with 1/4" thick corner sections. Shelf holes are 1-1/2" apart. Everything is hot-dipped galvanized (not plated), and therefore non-rusting and non-marking. In general, straps should be spaced about 3' apart, but 2' is better.
Get started with a Shop Lumber System, consisting of three 24" Straps, plus six 14" Shelf Brackets. A ground shipping surcharge applies: $1 for each Bracket and $3 for each wall strap. (Air shipping is not available.)
Note: These items have been restricted from being shipped outside the U.S.

| Super Heavy Duty Hangers |
| Reviewed By: |
MRG (Vestavia Hills, Alabama) |
| First off, these brackets are designed for use in prefab manholes to attach multiple runs of communications cable, piping, etc. I know, I installed plenty of it. GW's reply on how to install is right on target. You will never be able to overload these brackets if attached to wood as the wood will fail first.Use a lag screw that is at least 5/16x2" long along with fender washers that are at least 1 1/2" in diameter. If you can use nuts and bolts, do so and use graded fasteners to match the strength of the brackets Whatever you attach these brackets to has to be STRONG. No Sheetrock and anchors. They are heavy industrial parts and you will need to use a 3/4" solid wood shelf if spanning more than 16" or you will most likely have sag issues. They are really not designed to install into a wood 2x4, but if you trust your wall, these brackets can be used with great success. |

| How do you mount the straps to a wall? |

Bill (Worcester, MA) |
First they call me and tell me I wont recieve them on time. Then they actually do arrive on time. I left the area so thier on time arrival did me no good. Now I have them and there is nothing on the straps that allow you to mount them on a wall.
Response By: "Garrett Wade Tech Dept."
We installed this system in the warehouse at Garrett Wade. We used 5/16" lag screws with oversized cut washers. Since the shelves were to hang on a concrete block wall, we drilled holes with a hammer drill and inserted anchors. If we had been working on a stud wall, we would have spaced the straps to anchor into studs about 32" on center (every other stud), but as we were not restricted, we spaced our straps 36" apart.
We used both the 24" wall straps, as well as the 55" straps. On the 24" wall straps we used the oval-shaped tabs at either end for hanging, but on the 55" straps there are no end tabs, so we inserted the lags through bracket holes. We spaced the screws about 16" apart, though more screws and tighter spacing could be used depending on projected load.
If you need assistance hanging the Workshop Shelving System, please call the Garrett Wade Technical Department at 800-221-2942 and ask to speak to the specialist. |
