Frequently Asked Questions about Bike hook installation in Exmouth
How do vertical bike hooks work?
Hook goes on the wall, you lift your bike's front wheel and hang it from the wheel. Bike hangs vertically against the wall instead of leaning. Saves loads of floor space, and you can fit multiple bikes in a row.
Can you fit them to any wall?
Solid brick or block walls, easy. Stud walls (plasterboard over timber), yes but need to hit the studs. Thin shed walls, might need backing boards. I'll assess your wall and advise what'll work.
How many hooks per bike?
One hook per bike - you hang it by the front wheel. Space them about 40-50cm apart and you can line up several bikes along a wall. Family of cyclists can store 3-4 bikes in couple of meters of wall space.
Will it damage my bike?
No - the hook supports the wheel rim, which is designed to take the weight. Been standard bike storage for decades. As long as the hook's the right type for your wheel size, bike hangs perfectly happily.
What about heavy bikes?
Standard hooks are fine for normal bikes. E-bikes or really heavy mountain bikes might need heavy-duty hooks and extra-secure fixing. I'll check what you've got and fit appropriate hooks.
