ABSTRACT:
An adjustable storage rack apparatus for suspension from an overhead support, for storage of selected objects, such as boxes, lumber, pipe, sports equipment. First and second hanger members form an inverted U-shaped bracket sized to fit over the overhead support. The first side of each of the first and second hanger members extends below the inverted U-shaped bracket, and the second side of each of the first and second hanger members is bent to form a U-shaped bracket for supporting at least one object therefrom. Respective first and second elongated angle members each have first and second legs extending at right angles, and the first leg of the respective first and second elongated angle members are each adjustably secured to the lower end of the first side of the respective first and second hanger members. A substantially horizontal cross bar is selectively secured to either the first or second legs of each of the first and second elongated angle members, to form a substantially horizontal support therebetween.
At least one horizontal planar member may extend between aligned cross bars, to form a platform for receiving at least one object thereon. Where the cross bar(s) extend beyond the first and second elongated angle members, additional horizontal planar members may be secured to the cross bar portion extending beyond the first and second elongated angle members. A ceiling bracket may be used to secure the first hanger support member to the overhead structural support.
