Vertical wood storage

Master Sergeant how much weight do you think that rack can hold with those french cleats like that. I have a lot of wood and see this as a great idea. Thanks for any info provided. Thanks

i like this , is the dowels just for hanging stuff

I’m thinking up a storage system myself. But I have cinder block walls, so I am not certain what to do yet. Yours looks great. That’s funny that the inspector required trim as you mentioned in your profile.

This looks like a great idea and fairly simple. Could you expand your narrative to give a little more information on strength, how the supports are attached to the vertical pieces, how it is attached to the wall and what the pegs are for?

Looks great! The plans are available here for free. Just need to enter your email address.

Thanks shimster, I was trying to remember where I got the plans from. Putting this together was a fun day task. As far as how much will it hold, lets just say I am more worried about over tasking my wall then I am the wood rack! As you can see in the picture I have it loaded!
The horizontal pegs are to keep the verticals from moving/swaying. All three verticals are adjustable; raise up, pull out, move to desired location, place over peg, push in, and finally slide down. That easy.

Nice job.
Thanks For sharing.

I guess I didn’t answer all the questions above ;-) The horizontals are 3/8” lag bolted into the wall studs, I went every other one and that seems to be holding up just fine. The verticals are attached using a matching angle cut in both the horizontal and vertical, the more pulling down the tighter the hold is the idea. The pegs I went a little over board on, they keep the verticals from swaying from side to side. I could have used the pegs at the vertical locations but I decided to put a peg in all the holes and be done with it.
