Can I mount it in the center of my garage or does it need to go against a wall?

As long as you have beams over head to attach your supports to. I have two of them suspended from the garage ceiling, and neither one is near a wall. That way you have access from either side to load storage boxes.

I have about 6 of these units mounted around the perimeter of my garage - meaning up against a wall. However, there is no reason they cannot be mounted in the middle of the garage.

Mine is not mounted against the wall. Its mounted to the support beams on the garage cealing. Begore you mount them make sure your support beams will hold the weight of rack plus the items you will put on it.

It can be installed in the center of garage just make sure you hit the studs as would be expected.

The rack hangs from the ceiling and has not attachments to the side walls (the supports are attached to ceiling joists). Therefore, it CAN be mounted in the middle of the garage.

You can mount it anywhere you like as long as there are ceiling joists available to screw into at the appropriate spots and there are no other obstructions.

The entire rack is designed to bolt/screw into your rafters (ceiling beams), so YES you can free hang in the center of the garage. You will need to locate the rafters to install.

It does not need to go against a wall. In fact it's easier to install away from the wall where you have more ceiling joist choices to screw into.

It will need to be hard wired, recessed inside the wall between the studs. It does come with mounting hardware.

Well, if you're mounting it to your pickup, I would mount it behind the cab, to the front of a toolbox if you have one. If you use a 90° bracket, you'll have plenty of room.

It could be mounted from a ceiling. Highly recommend finding a stud and using a lag bolt with washers. You may have to trim the power switch pull chain so it doesn't hang in the fan cage.

Hi, the back of this unit is not finished so it is better to use it against a wall. Thank you!

You can mount it anywhere but if it will be mounted to the outside of a building, I would tend not to. It is not that secure. If it is to be mounted to an outside wall of a building that is secured, I am still not to thrilled with the idea.Sorry. If it is to be mounted to the outside of your bedroom or workshop within a structure, then my answer is yes.Good luck.

It can be mounted either way. I mounted it with the Aluminum to the out side of the door. It works great and looks real good. You do have to caulk at the edge of the aluminum to keep water from running behind and ruining your garage door. The advantage of installing the alumni from the outside is that the bottom of the door does not wick water up from standing water.

It's not meant to mount on a wall. It is meant to go in a rack. I plug it in and lay it on the floor.

We hung it by the wall, but it makes our whole garage wall shake. I thought of tethering it to the ground somehow, but nothing bad has happened and we beat the heck out of it.

I mounted them in studs to be on the safe side. While anchor screws may hold the unit tight against the wall, I would not want to risk having my two boards come crashing to my concrete garage floor. Good luck!

My studs did not line up well either since I mounted mine in corner of garage. I did not use drywall anchors though; I build a frame using 1x6's which I think worked very well. It is super sturdy, and I wasn't worried about seeing the wood mounted on the wall since it was the garage. I have pictures of how I did it, so if you want to see them, just let me know. My email is jshook12@yahoo.com Good luck!

No, it does not need to be mounted as long as you lean it up against a wall. That is the way I have it in my basement.

I mounted this product to the center beams supporting my basement. If you are going to mount it to the foundation wall I would pre-drill into the concrete and use the concrete anchors to support the chin up bar.

Onto wall board but thru a stud behind. Whatever you mount it too must be solid on both mounting ends. All 6 screws need to be mounted in wood or concrete to prevent pull out when used.

I mounted this under my kitchen cabinet to save space. I assume you can mount it vertically against a wall since it only requires 2 screws.

Corners are the only mounting option, however you can turn the vice to either side of the corner. It is not designed for the center.

The garage one of course mounts on the inside of garage door. The receiver is wall mountable with adhesive tape, Velcro etc However Keep in mind you will need to mount the receiver near a wall outlet since the receiver runs off AC power.
