### Get Your Boards Off the Floor
Surfboards leaning in the garage get dinged, knocked over, and generally abused. **Wall-mounted racks** keep them safe, organized, and out of the way.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Store boards somewhere dry and out of direct sunlight - garages are ideal. UV and damp both damage boards over time.

Frequently Asked Questions about Surfboard rack in Newton Abbot
What type of rack is best for surfboards?
Horizontal wall racks work well for most people - boards stack horizontally like books on a shelf. Vertical racks (nose-up) save width but need more ceiling height. I'll advise based on your space and how many boards you've got.
Can garage walls hold surfboard racks?
Depends on the wall construction. Block or brick walls are fine. Stud walls need fixing into the studs themselves, not just the plasterboard. SUPs and longboards are heavy - the rack needs solid fixing.
How many boards will it hold?
Depends on the rack type. Basic horizontal racks hold 2-3 shortboards or 1-2 longboards. Bigger multi-tier systems can hold 6+ boards. Tell me what you've got and I'll spec the right system.
Will it damage my boards?
Not if the rack's padded properly. I use racks with foam or rubber padding that won't ding your rails. And properly mounted racks keep boards stable - they're not falling off and getting dinged.
Can you mount kayak storage too?
Yes - same principle, just heavier and bulkier. Kayaks need strong wall fixings because they're proper weight. I'll make sure it's mounted securely.
