Can these be used outdoor without getting rusted by humidity?

I do not know, but they are wonderful to set up, holds many items and looks great. I bought one and purchased another. I guess it depends on what type of climate you live in. I get snow, so not good for my area. CG

It has a protective coat on it but I couldn't say for sure, I use mine in an outdoor storage unit and it works wonderfully!

I'm not sure that I would use it outdoors. The hinges and moving parts would probably rust over time. It would be fine in a garage or covered area. It's a great unit, very easy to assemble, very sturdy and attractive. Purchased 2 more!

I don't really know, since I have purchased this item for indoor purpose. The only thing I can say it's a great product.

The shelf is powder coated and that serves to provide a barrier between the metal and the oxygen around it protecting it from corrosion. However, if the coating is scratched, or chipped down to the bare metal underneath, I assume rust could start in that location. My shelves are in the basement and I do use products to prevent the basement from becoming too humid. I have not had any rust issues with this shelving.

We have them in a shed in humid NC and they haven't rusted. Had about 8 months.

Yes, for now. I use these outdoors and my main concern is the steel cylinder rusting (it doesn't turn freely even when new) and the thin aluminum key breaking inside the cylinder.

No, if not maintained then they will rust. Mine have already started to show some rust and I've had themfor a couple months.

I have not seen any rust on mine. They are good quality. Use Barkeeper's Friend and they will stay perfectly clean.

I would think so. I ordered them for my boss at my last job. I worked in a diner. They were for the high traffic swinging door from the kitchen into the dining area- constantly being used. As far as durability- I would say yes. Don't know if they would rust or not. Hope this helped

I haven't noticed any rust issues, but maybe you can spray paint or clear coat them.

Yes. They have a pretty good powder coat finish similar to patio furniture. Rain shouldn't hurt them. Although nicks and scratches will rust over time. I wouldn't leave them out side in the winter. Drying them off after a rain I am sure will extend the life of the finish.

Yes they can be used outdoors. I have had mine outside for about over a year. They work perfectly, rain or shine.

Yes, in fact I used them outdoors over a year ago and there is no indication of rust.

I have used them outside in S Florida with ultra high humidity. They have been out there close to 6 months with no issues. Hope this helps.

Yes, if you don't want them to rust, you need to season them. I used a heavy coat of vegtable oil and rubbed them liberally and heated them slowly to very hot. Two years old and only an occasional spot seasoning. Luv em!

I do not know if they will rust because I live in Phoenix and they are always in the shade. I had problems with the plastic because in the summer it gets so hot here, the plastic does not seem to hold up.

I don't know for sure, but would assume so. Mine have not rusted and I use them often.

I'd say yes but if possible I'd mount them/it away from direct steam a shower can produce. I can say that I have mine mounted (4) in an outdoor patio. I live in Houston and it does get humid however they do not receive any direct water or sunlight exposure. Side note:these speakers are great for our needs. Hope that helps.

I would not have these outdoors at all. They are a great quality but they will rust outside.

The springs will rust whether in the dishwasher or washed by hand. If dried thoroughly, there is no problem. My first pair lasted30 years.
