The storage rack ceiling brackets can be positioned parallel
or perpendicular to the wood ceiling joists/rafters. Determine
the application required for your desired installation. If drywall
covers the joists, use a stud finder to determine the joist/rafter
locations and mark with masking tape. For applications requiring
installation of the brackets perpendicular to the joists/rafters,
the maximum distance between them is 24". The brackets
included allow for a 24" maximum span. See figure for typical
ceiling layouts. Mark the location of the ceiling brackets on the
joists/rafters or drywall, making sure the vertical supports can
be positioned between the lag bolts use to attach the brackets.
Position the center of the brackets on a 24"/48" grid as required.
