THERE IS NO LIMIT TO THE NUMBER OF BIKES SPACERAIL CAN STORE. ADD MORE RAILS AS REQUIRED

When storing four or eight bikes additonal SpaceRail Kit may be required to allow enough space for bike movement and access.
For example, we suggest that four road bikes would be acceptable on a single SpaceRail Kit, but four mountain bikes with wide handle bars might compromise access and may require an additional SpaceRail Kit.

MOUTING GUIDE

FUNDAMENTALS

Your SpaceRail Kit is adaptable to many different situations, but a few fundamental mounting rules should be followed:



BE AWARE OF WATER AND GAS PIPES AND ELECTRICITY CABLES. ALWAYS

CHECK WITH A PROFESSIONAL IF YOU'RE UNSURE.

 Each Rail must be suspended from at least two Angled Ceiling Mounts, each with two Screws. Additional Angled Ceiling Mounts can be used to add extra support and share the load.

 Locate mounting points that are structurally suitable so that the kit can be installed with
the rail flat and parallel. Check with a spirit level. If you have a flat ceiling or want to mount to a wall, visit our website to see our alternative mounting kits.

 The supplied timber screws require at least 50mm of thread engagement to a solid timber structure to achieve full strength. If you have a non-timber mounting structure then you will need to provide your own fixings.

 Angled Ceiling Mounts are adjustable and should be located 540mm-1000mm / 21.2" - 39.5" apart to fit your mounting structure. Most buildings have beams or joists at 400mm / 15.7", 500mm / 19.7" or 600mm / 23.6" spacing. If your ceiling is boarded
then we suggest using a Stud Finder tool as it is essential you locate the supporting
structure correctly.

300mm 11.8"max!

540mm - 1000mm 21.2" - 39.5"

300mm 11.8"max!

 The maximum cantilever length from the centre of the Angled Ceiling Mounts to the end of the Rail is 300mm / 11.8".
300mm / 11.8"max!

13

MOUNTING HEIGHT  Ensure you have enough height to hang your bikes with the wheels off the floor. The Rail
and Trolley requires roughly 250mm of height allowance from the ceiling to the inside of the bikes front wheel rim, although this varies depending on the ceiling angle.
Trolley Height 250mm / 9.8"
Measure length of longest bike
Check for clearance 25mm / 1"
MOUNTING ACROSS BEAMS  In an ideal scenario each Rail should be mounted across at least two independent load
bearing beams to spread the weight of the system.
14

MOUNTING ALONG BEAMS
 If mounting parallel with a beam, then the loads may need to be shared across multiple rafters or joists. A supplementary beam spanning component may be required.

MOUNTING ANGLE
 The Angled Ceiling Mounts can be installed on angled surfaces from 0° to 120°. To adjust the angle loosen or remove bolts, adjust to desired angle and re-tighten all bolts.

0° 90°

30°
120°
15

SUGGESTED MOUNTING LOCATIONS OPEN ENDED AND FREE SPACE
 The SpaceRail Kit can be mounted parallel with a wall with both ends of the system accessible, or can be hung in complete free space in the centre of a room.
CORNER  To mount in a corner you need to ensure the end bikes handlebar do not touch the end wall.  Measure the bike from the centre of the stem to the end of the handlebars. Use this dimension to ensure your SpaceRail is far enough away from the end wall to utilise the full length of the rail. We recommend that the handlebar of the end bike should be near to, but not touching the wall.
Handlebar near to but not touching the wall
16

MOUNTING PARALLEL TO A WALL  The distance needed to mount your Angled SpaceRail Kit away from any parallel wall, depends on both the size of your bikes and if rotation is required once hung.  Look for the largest bike you are planning on storing and measure the length and depth to ensure it can spin freely once hung. On bikes with wide handlebars this dimension might also need to be taken in to account.  For optimum Rail performance the bikes should not rest against the wall once hung up, although this is possible providing hooks are not angled in the rail.  As a general rule, the Rail is normally mounted between 600 - 700mm / 23.6" - 27.5" away from walls or other objects to ensure bikes can spin and slide freely.
17

INSTALLATION
LOCATE POSITION THE RAIL KIT MUST BE SCREWED TO A ROBUST STRUCTURE AND NOT SOLELY IN TO PLASTERBOARD!  Ensure the points where the Angled Ceiling Mounts are mounted are flat, of solid
structure and parallel. If not then the Rail could be mounted at an angle, misaligned or twisted and will not function correctly. Use a spirit level to check.  Measure distance between mounting points and check they are suitable for mounting. Note dimensions for loosely mounting the Angled Ceiling Mounts to the Rail.  If you are installing more than one Rail then ensure suitable mounting points are available for all Angled Ceiling Mounts on subsequent Rails.
18

ASSEMBLE ANGLED CEILING MOUNTS  Place the M6 x 20mm Bolts through the M6 Washer and M6 Washer. Place through the
holes/slots in the Angled Ceiling Mounts. Add M6 Washer and thread on the M6 Nuts. Place M6 x 12mm Hex Bolts through Angle Bracket - Lower and loosely screw to the T-Nuts. Do not tighten fully.  Note: Any combination of opposing slots and holes around the cental hole can be used depending on the angle setting required.
Opposing holes used!
19

ASSEMBLE END CAPS  Place the M6 x 12mm Countersunk Bolts through the countersunk holes in the sides of
the End Cap and loosely screw to T-Nuts. Do not tighten fully.
20

ASSEMBLE JOINER If applicable
 Place the M6 x 12mm Countersunk Bolts through the countersunk holes in the sides of the Joiner and loosely screw to T-nuts. Do not tighten fully.
21

SLIDE ANGLED CEILING MOUNTS TO REQUIRED POSITIONS  Slide the Angled Ceiling Mounts into the Rail by aligning and inserting the T-nut into the
central section of the top of the Rail.
 Slide Angled Ceiling Mounts to positions noted earlier and loosely tighten, using a 10mm spanner.
22

HOLD RAIL IN POSITION AND ATTACH  Hold Rail in the correct position on the ceiling structure so Angled Ceiling Mounts align
with your mounting locations.  Be sure to avoid water and gas pipes and electric cables. If you're unsure contact a
professional.  Screw Angled Ceiling Mounts to ceiling structure using 4 x Wood Screws and 4 cup
washers
Note: Ensure Rail is level, parallel with any surrounding objects and not bent, twisted or distorted from the installation process. Check using a spirit level. You may need to add shims or packing pieces under the Angled Ceiling Mounts to get correct alignment.
23

INSTALL ADDITIONAL SPACERAIL KIT If applicable
 Before fitting the second Rail to the mounting structure, attach the Rail Joiner to the Rail and loosely tighten the M6 x 12mm Countersunk Bolts to hold it in place.
 Asses fitment location for second Rail and loosely attach the Angled Ceiling Mounts to the rail.
 Fit the second Rail to the first rail - keep well supported. Check mounting locations and then repeat installation process.
 Do not rely on the Joiner component alone to support the second rail!  Ensure both Rails are parallel and aligned concentrically. Screw the second Rail to the
ceiling and equally tighten bolts in Joiner. WARNING: DO NOT MOUNT WITH CENTRE OF JOIN MORE THAN 300MM / 11.8" FROM THE CENTRE OF AN ANGLED CEILING MOUNT.
Max 300mm 11.8"
24

INSERT END CAPS  Align T-nuts to Rail and slide End Cap into Rail and tighten Bolts equally with a 4mm
Hex Key.
 Insert Trolleys in to Rail (see separate instructions) and ensure they run freely and smooth the whole length of the Rail. Repeat process for second End cap.
ADJUST ANGLE SO HOOKS HANG VERTICALLY  Loosen all the M6 Bolts and adjust angle of the Rail so Hooks are vertical. Tighten all
three M6 Bolts once the correct angle has been achieved.
Loosen, adjust angle and re-tighten
Ensure vertical
25

FAQ
My Bike Hook keeps rolling on its own  Check the level of your Rail. Adjust with shims or packing components if necessary.
Can I shorten the Rail?  Yes! You can cut the Rail to any length you require, but be sure to de-burr the ends well with a small file. We recommend using a power chop saw with blade suitable for aluminium. Do not attempt this with a hack saw.
My Trolley gets stuck in the joint  Rails are not positioned or aligned correctly. Remove all bikes, adjust Rails and refit.
I cannot spin my bikes or access them easily  Change bike order to improve access.  Rail length is not long enough so add additional SpaceRail Extension Kit.
How many Rails can I join?  The number of Rails that can be joined together is unlimited and is only constrained by available support structures. Consult a structural engineer if you are unsure of the maximum load your structure can support.

MAINTENANCE
Your Rail Kit is generally very low maintenance and should give years of use. Some basic maintenance tips:
 Ensure the Rail is kept clean and free from debris, this is especially important on the faces where the Bike Hook wheels run.
 Clean your Rail with a soft cloth or use compressed air to remove debris from hard to reach areas.
PERIODIC CHECKS
 Check the structural integrity of the mounting area.  Apply grease to the bullet of the hook, being careful to avoid the top cap.  Check all bolts and screws - retighten if necessary.  Check for wear to any components such as wheels or impact areas.  Ensure free movement of trolleys when loaded.  Ensure Auto-Lock tech functions correctly when unloaded.
