How to Choose the Right SpaceRail for Your Bike Storage
A well organised bike space makes every ride easier. When your bikes are stored efficiently and safely, your garage, shed or workshop becomes a place that inspires riding rather than a place full of clutter.
The Stashed SpaceRail Bike Storage System is designed to store multiple bikes while maximising space. Its sliding hooks allow bikes to move side to side, making it possible to store more bikes in less room while keeping them easy to access.
Here is how to choose the right setup for your space.]

1. Start With the Number of Bikes You Want to Store
The first step is simply counting how many bikes you want to store now. Many riders also like to plan ahead and allow space for one or two future bikes.
Think about:
• Your current bikes
• Family bikes
• Guest bikes
• Future additions
A typical setup might look like:
• 1 to 4 bikes: single rail setup
• 5 to 8 bikes: two rails
• 9+ bikes: Three, four or more
Because the system is modular, you can always add more hooks or rails later.
2. Measure Your Available Space
Next, look at the space where you plan to install your system.
SpaceRail can be installed on the ceiling or wall depending on the layout of your garage or bike room. Measure the length of the area available and check you have enough height for bikes to hang vertically.
Sliding hooks allow bikes to move along the rail, which means you can stagger handlebars and pedals to fit bikes closer together.
3. Consider the Types of Bikes You Own
Different bikes have different sizes and weights but all can be stored on SpaceRail, maximising space to get more bikes.
Road bikes, gravel bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes can all be stored on SpaceRail. Each hook is designed to safely hold bikes up to 30 kg, making it suitable even for heavier bikes.
If you have wide handlebars or larger bikes, you may want to leave slightly more spacing between hooks.
4. Think About Access and Daily Use
Good bike storage is not just about fitting bikes into a space. It is about making them easy to grab when it is time to ride.
Consider:
• Which bikes you use most often
• Whether multiple people will access bikes
• How easily bikes can slide along the rail
The sliding system allows you to move bikes out of the way quickly, making it easier to reach the bike you need.
5. Plan for a Clean and Organised Space
Many riders use SpaceRail as the foundation of a fully organised bike area. Keeping bikes off the floor instantly frees up space and creates a cleaner environment for maintenance and preparation.
You can also combine bike storage with gear organisation systems like Stashed LodeStar Modular Storage System to store helmets, shoes, tools and riding kit.
