FAQs
What is the maximum weight capacity of the Sealey Extending Tyre Rack?
The maximum weight capacity depends on the mounting type (wall or floor). Always refer to the product specifications for the exact capacity.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will typically need a drill, level, measuring tape, and appropriate fixings (screws, bolts, anchors) for your wall or floor.
Can this rack be used outdoors?
While the powder-coated finish provides corrosion resistance, it's best to install the rack in a sheltered area to prolong its life.
How do I adjust the width of the rack?
Loosen the adjustment mechanism, slide the rack to the desired width, and secure the mechanism.
What if the wall material is not suitable for wall mounting?
If your wall is not suitable, consider mounting the rack on the floor or reinforcing the wall with additional support.
How often should I inspect the rack?
Inspect the rack regularly, especially in high-use environments. Check for any signs of damage, wear, or loose fixings.
Where can I find replacement parts?
Contact the manufacturer or your local Sealey distributor for replacement parts.
Troubleshooting
Rack feels unstable after mounting.
Check the mounting hardware. Ensure screws are properly tightened. For wall mounting, verify the wall structure is adequate for the load. Re-tighten or replace the mounting hardware as needed.
The rack is difficult to adjust.
Check for any obstructions or debris in the adjustment mechanism. Lubricate the moving parts with a suitable lubricant to ease adjustment.
Rust or corrosion is developing.
Clean the affected area with a wire brush or sandpaper. Apply a rust-inhibiting primer and paint to protect against further corrosion.
Rack is overloaded and tires are slipping.
Reduce the number of tires on the rack to stay within the weight limit. Ensure tires are properly positioned to prevent slippage.
