Installation time: Approximately 30 minutes.
Important: Read through entire instructions before beginning any installations.
1A: Using a stud-nder, locate 5 wall studs that are 16" center to center apart.
Note: If studs are not on 16" centers, you may need to drill new matching holes in Master Rails.
Place one Master Rail (B) with holes aligned to studs and verify that the Master Rail is level.
Mark the location of the holes with a pencil. Pre-drill the holes using a 3/16" drill bit. Mount
the rst Master Rail (B) with (3) Lag Screws (C) using a 1/2" nut driver or socket wrench.
Note: Master Rails must be mounted with the longer .63" lip on top and shorter .43" lip on bottom.
1B: Attach second Master Rail (B) by interlocking it with the rst and aligning holes with 16" wall stud
centers. Verify that both Master Rails are level and mark holes with a pencil. Pre-drill using a 3/16"
drill bit. Mount the Master Rail (B) with 3 Lag Screws (C) using a 7/16" nut driver or socket wrench.
Note: If necessary to mount to uncommon hole pattern, drill new matching holes in Master Rails.
1. Mounting the Master Rails to Wall Studs
IMPORTANT: Do not over-tighten the Lag Screws (max 10 ft. lbs.).
They only need to be fully seated, no more. Do not use an impact driver.
IMPORTANT: Unit MUST be installed into wall studs. Do not use anchors
for installation into sheet rock.

2A: Attach Rubber Wall Glides (H)
to bottom back of both Side
Frames (A).
2. Attaching the Side Frames
3: Insert 1" Tube (E) inside 1-1/4" Tube (F) and fasten using Hex Bolts (D) and Washers (G) through Side
Frame (A). Start with the back and place at the appropriate height to protect wall from tire rub. Location
is determined by tire sizes and can be adjusted to accommodate many sizes.
Insert remaining 1" Tubes (E) into 1-1/4" Tubes (F) and fasten using Hex Bolts (D) and Washers (G) through
Side Frame (A). Locate these tubes to accommodate your desired tire size. Tighten all Bolts (D) using a
9/16" nut driver or socket wrench. Adjust the width before adding your tires, and place Set Pins (I) in
holes on top of Master Rail (B) in desired location to keep the tire rack from over adjusting in width. This
multi-tire rack is designed for a maximum inside opening of 58". Adhere HyLoft Sticker (J) for convenient
access to contact information.
3. Installing the Shelf Tubes
2B: Slide bracket on top rear of Side Frames (A) into the ends
of the Master Rail (B) until they are the distance apart
needed for tire storage. This can be readjusted at any time.
Each unit can hold a maximum of 400 lbs when mounted directly into wall studs and the weight
load is evenly distributed.
Do not over extend the inside opening beyond 58".
Verify all connections at least once per year in order to ensure that they are fastened securely.
