Hang A Kayak In Garage

Do you have a kayak that you want to store in your garage? If so, you should consider hanging it up. Hanging your kayak is a great way to save space and keep it out of the way. It is also a great way to protect it from damage. Kayaks are expensive, so you want to keep them in good condition.

Hanging a kayak is not difficult. You can do it yourself with a few simple tools and materials. If you are not comfortable doing it yourself, you can hire a professional to do it for you. If you decide to do it yourself, be sure to follow the instructions carefully. You need to ensure that the kayak is hung securely so it does not fall and cause damage.

Materials You Will Need:

Two heavy-duty hooks
Two lengths of rope or chain
Two S-hooks
A drill
A screwdriver

Instructions:

Decide where you want to hang your kayak. The best place is usually on a wall that is out of the way. You want to ensure that there is enough space around the kayak so that you can easily get it in and out of storage.
Mark the spots where you will drill the holes for the hooks. The holes should be about 12 inches apart. Drill the holes and insert the hooks.
Cut two lengths of rope or chain. The lengths should be long enough to reach from the hooks to the kayak. Tie one end of each rope or chain to a hook. Thread the other end of each rope or chain through an S-hook.
Attach the S-hooks to the kayak. The best place to attach them is on the carrying handles.
Lift the kayak into place and hang it from the hooks.

Tips:

If you are using rope, make sure to tie it securely. You want to ensure that it will not slip and cause the kayak to fall.
If you are using chain, make sure to tighten it securely. You want to ensure that the kayak is hung securely and will not move around.
If you are hanging the kayak in a humid environment, it is a good idea to put a moisture barrier between the kayak and the wall. This will help to prevent the kayak from rusting.
