Hang Track Shelving Installation “Beginner Friendly”

Hang Track Shelving Installation Begginer Friendly. How to install hang track shelves is an easy DIY. Whether it’s the Closetmaid Shelftrack, Everbuilt Hang track or Rubbermaid Fasttrack, installing these hang track shelving systems in a very similar. For my project I used the Everbuilt Hangtrack Shelving System. Honestly, half of my garage shelves are Closetmaid Shelftrack and the other half is Hang track and I can’t really tell the difference.
Both of these garage shelving systems have four main components, a top track or rail, hang rails or standards, shelf brackets and wire shelving. Wire shelving systems like these also have many accessories that can be added. Shelftrack and Hang Track shelves are both expandable and adjustable. The wire shelf brackets can be moved up or down as needed and more shelving can be added at any time.
Installation of a hang track shelving system is very simple. The top track is first leveled and attached horizontally to the wall using screws to attach it directly to the wall studs. Next, the hang rails or standards are attached vertically over top of the studs. I used 2 1/2” screws to be sure that at least one inch of screw went into the studs. Shelf brackets are then attached to the slots of the hang rails to allow for the wire shelving to span across them.

Hi, can u do a demo on upright boards for a closet system?

@NaNana-ey6jk Жыл бұрын

When l painted my new walls in my shed, l put a trim tape over my studs. There is no need for stud finding! * Note that each layer of paint requires its own tape. My one tape took out all three layers, including the drywall sealant. Instead of starting from scratch, l'm putting a wider tape over the original tape, and sealing it with a clear sealant. If anyone can think of a better solution , please let me know ASAP!

Any reason why you used the regular duty shelves, brackets, hang track & vertical rail and not the heavy duty ones ???

@MrFredsDIY Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching the video! I used the regular duty because I have used them before with no issues and as you can see with all of the weight they hold. Also it saved a ton of money!

@paulrobilotti9294 Жыл бұрын

@@MrFredsDIY Your are very welcome. I hear you about the ton of money, LOL/ when our home was built the builder used a guy that just used the usual junk to hold the wire shelves , even the bottom bracket were not in the studs, after 20+ years a 9 foot wire shelf caved, I took all the shelves in the closet down, the closet is big 9' X 7' I did that closet with all the heavy duty shelving etc and everything in the studs, I kid my wife in saying the house will fall down before any of these shelves fall, LOL , Now that I have gotten really good I am going to do a wall in the garage like you did and was going to use the heavy duty stuff again, but after seeing your video I just might go with the regular duty, again thank you for getting back to me and your answer to my question

What is the purpose of the hanging or top track? Can’t you just screw the vertical tracks into the wall without the hanging track?

@MrFredsDIY Жыл бұрын

The top track ads vertical structural support. Screws alone could shear off under a load. I had considered only using screws on the uprights, but I knew I was going to put a lot of weight on this system. Thanks for commenting.!

@mattbush315 Жыл бұрын

does anyone know if shelving lengths are exact? For instance, I want a shelf across 3 24in spaced studs - that's 6ft. Do i need to get an 8ft shelf and cut it down for that to work with the brackets?

@MrFredsDIY Жыл бұрын

If 6ft are not available then yes you will have to cut them down. Both Lowes and Home Depot have the ability to cut them for you with bolt cutters. You just have to find someone in that department who wants to be helpful that day. Thanks for watching!

@mattbush315 Жыл бұрын

@@MrFredsDIY sorry if my question was confusing. 6ft'ers are available, but I'm wondering if a 6ft shelf is actually 6ft or if it's a bit over 6ft to allow room for the support bracket. If it's exactly 6ft, and so is the stud spacing, I feel like the bracket would not fully engage the wire shelf and cause issues? Maybe I'm wrong.

@MrFredsDIY Жыл бұрын

@@mattbush315 my guess is that a few inches extra on each side for overhang would be desirable.

@mas5867 Жыл бұрын

I just figured out how to do this in a fraction of the time and probably half the cost. Cut to length chain fence hanging from the rafters with s hooks. Would they sway. Yes. but you could put buy a flat shelf on the floor and hook the chain to it. If anything, this idea could be very fast temp shelves.

@mas5867 Жыл бұрын

A real simple support that could lock on the front side would be too easy and reduce the weight by half and it would be movable.

That’s a fantastic question! I would totally use the same exact method, but instead of the wood screws, I would use Tapcon screws. I would probably use these amzn.to/3Jf7kUF

About the first horizontal rail: Given that everything is anchor to studs, It seems a bit an overkill… and for level you can use a laser level. do you think you really need it?

@chiefinspector7280 2 жыл бұрын

You need more supports at the deflected areas. The allowable load is calculated based on the screw to wood allowable.
