Overhead Racks
What types of overhead racks are there?
There are two types of overhead racks; motorized and stationary.
How much weight do the overhead racks hold?
Each 4’x8′ unit is strong enough to hold 750 lbs when hung from the ceiling and 1,000 lbs when one side is mounted to the wall. Motorized overhead racks are rated for 350 lbs of storage capacity.
What items are best stored on overhead racks?
Long-term items and items used less frequently, like bulky equipment or storage bins, are best stored on overhead racks.
What are the differences between motorized overhead racks and normal racks?
There are a few significant differences between the two types of racks we offer. Most notably, motorized racks will move up and down by the control of an app installed on your phone. Normal racks are generally accessed by a ladder and can hold more weight.
How do the motorized overhead racks work?
Motorized racks are controlled by an app using a pulley-like system to raise and lower your stored items for easy access.
What are the overhead storage racks made out of?
The overhead racks are powder-coated, industrial-grade steel frames to ensure the safety of each and every unit.

Does everything have to be out of the garage during the floor installation?
Yes, everything has to be out of the garage during garage floor coating installation.
What is the difference between polyurea coatings and epoxy coatings?
Epoxy coatings are a type of floor coating that protects the concrete flooring of your garage. Our epoxy was formulated specifically for our dealers’ needs. Although it is extremely durable, all epoxy will fade and yellow if direct sunlight is applied over time. Our polyurea coatings are much more durable and long-lasting than any epoxy. The coating type is resistant to damage from chemicals and UV rays, so it won’t yellow or fade over time. It’s also more environmentally friendly.
Is the floor covering slippery?
For tiles, we combine just the right mix of plastic and rubber compounds, so it’s not slippery when wet. The floor coatings can be slippery, because they are impervious to liquids. The full layer of chips adds texture to help with the slipperiness. If this is a real concern for you, then a special anti-slip product can be added to the top coat for an additional charge.
How do I clean my new floor?
Power wash, bristle brooms and/or mops are highly effective. Our coatings are impervious to liquids, so oil and chemicals can be wiped up without staining the floor. Dirt and other debris can be washed out simply with a hose or light pressure wash.
Are the resins used harmful to me or the environment?
No. Unlike cheaper kits, our products have a high solids content, which means fewer solvents and less VOCs are emitted that evaporate into the air.
Does the floor scratch?
No. Our polyurea coatings are highly resistant to damage once they’re fully installed. They won’t scratch and they resist staining from water or oil.
