Heavy-Duty Indoor SUP Wall Storage These On-Rail Racks are made to both safely store your SUP and also display the deck or hull. This SUP wall rack provides convenient surfboard storage for 1 or 2 SUPs in a compact design. This rack is angled at a 45 degree angle to accommodate deep fin clearance and also keep the board as close to the wall as possible. This rack has been specifically designed for SUP boards with extra clearance at the bend for the larger SUP rails. Don't just try to shove your SUP into a regular surfboard rack, get a rack designed to hold you SUP!

We also have this SUP rack available in a galvanized dip finish for outdoor use to resist rust and the salt water elements.

Depth: 23"
Height: 16" (single), 27" (double)
Spacing: 11" between levels (double)
45 degree display angle

Q:

Can I use this rack to store SUPs (Stand Up Paddle Boards) in the vertical position?

A:

Yes! That is a great way to store a bunch of SUPs as long as you have the ceiling clearance. All you would do is mount the rack on its side and then put down a non slip pad or carpet for the boards to rest on. You can mount the two rack ends next to each other for storage of up to 4 SUP's from each rack purchased.

Q:

I am looking at this double rack for SUPs, does it come with one rack arm or a pair?

A:

This rack includes a pair of rack arms. One of the rack arms supports the tip of your SUPs and the other supports the tail of your SUPs. You can mount them at any distance apart from each other to accommodate any length SUP.

Q:

What is the angle of the arms on this rack?

A:

The arms of this SUP rack are each at a 45 degree angle.

Q:

Will this rack system fit a Sup-Atx 11'6" Journey Board and a Sup-Atx Adventure (Yoga) board - the two boards have these measurements:

Length: 11 feet 6 inches
Board Width: 32 inches
Nose Width: 20 inches
Tail Width: 15 inches
Board Thickness: 4.75 inches
Volume: 230 liters
Board Weight: 28 lbs

A:

The double on-rail SUP rack should work fine for your two boards, based on those measurements:

1) The length will not be an issue, as you can set up each arm side (right and left) as far apart as you need to accommodate the length of your boards.

2) At 4.75" thick, these boards should also fit fine - you also should not have a problem getting them in an out of the rack as there is 11 inches of room between rack levels. The rack hooks have have gap that is about 6" inches wide total, but you would want the thickness to be less than that total, so up to about 4.75" should be okay

3) At 32" wide, at their widest points, your SUPs would be fine on this rack. The arms are 22.5 inches long, at an upwards angle, but as long as about half of the board's width is resting on the arm, it should be fine, and where your SUPS will be resting on the arms will also be where they are slightly narrower than 32" (at opposite ends of the boards they are narrow then full width of board).

4) The weight of your boards should not be a problem (combined).

These are really rock solid board racks; it is a sturdy system. You will, as with all of our rack systems, need to make certain to properly mount them to the wall so they can perform to their maximum.

Q:

Can you hang them in walls that have the metal aluminum studs?

A:

You should be able to mount this double on-rail SUP rack into metal studs. You would need to pre-drill them, or get the self-drilling screws meant for metal. Should it be of assistance in planning, we have a basic how-to installation and spacing guide with other considerations for setting up your board rack.

Q:

I see some of your SUP racks are based on suspension supports and are marketing "zero pressure points" . Are there possible long term damage issues to mu SUP's with the Gatekeeper racks resulting from sitting in a rigid rack arm, even if they are padded?

A:

The Gatekeeper SUP rack shouldn't have any long term storage problems for your SUPs. They use a very high quality foam, and are a good option for your boards.

Q:

I have a Jimmy Lewis M-14 board that is 6.3" thick x 28' wide. I also have three other boards that are only about 4 - 4.5" thick. Would this rack be able to accommodate the 6.3" thick board?

A:

Our double SUP wall rack would hold your two smaller boards fine, and they would also fit in many of our other SUP wall racks as well (at 4 to 4.5 inches thick). The 6.3 inch board is going to be just a little too thick for this double rack (its gap where the board sits holds up to abut a 6 inch thick SUP). A better option for the board with thicker rails might be this: SUP rack with removable arms.

Q:

Can I mount this rack on a dock?

A:

Our double on-rail SUP racks can technically be mounted onto a dock. Note, they are not stainless steel so they will be subjected to rust and weathering with such use, and we would not recommend using them outside in a salt water location, as is. However, if you are in a salt water area, these can be special ordered with a galvanized dip that can be applied to them which would make them suitable for outdoor use in a salt water environment - should that be of interest, let us know. These are reliable, solid SUP racks, so are a good purchase, but if you want more options for outdoor use, including some dock rack options, you can find those: Outdoor SUP racks.

Everything detailed as promised. Installed across two fence posts (under a shady tree) and feels like a bespoke fit for two 10' paddle boards. Highly recommend.

A bit tight for 2 boards

I purchased this rack for my tenant. She has two boards that we wanted to get up off the ground. I'm not sure if they are typical size (one is wide and short the other over 10 ft long) but we found it quite tight to get both boards in. The longer board actually contacts the metal of the rack directly. The foam is insufficient to protect the board fully...I tried to capture the issue in the pictures. My tenant was happy but after learning what these boards cost I would be afraid the rack could do damage to the board if you are not careful.

Excellent design, easy install

I just bought two SUPs for my wife and I. We wanted a rack that we could use in our garage without taking up too much headspace and not get in the way of our car doors opening since we park both of our cars in the garage. This rack perfectly suits our needs and nicely displays our beautiful Vesl boards on the wall. It was easy to install. I did install them a bit higher to guarantee headspace when walking by the car and being shorter I do have to use a small step ladder to reach the top rack, but my boards are lite and it's not a big deal. The construction is very sturdy and the arms come padded with a durable foam that reaches all to the way the angle of the arm, ensuring the rail of the board is protected. Quick delivery too!

Just What Was Needed

We needed storage for a pair of SUPs in a tight two-car garage, and this product delivered. It's angled brackets provide for a lower wall mount while still giving adequate head room to maneuver around. The pair of brackets are quite stout with hefty lag bolts, and the padding supportive and protective for bottom-side-down stored boards. The angled storage does make lifting into position a bit dicey if the brackets are mounted too high (we had to drop by a foot after the initial mounting). Overall, we're quite pleased with the product and the price.

Great Quality

The double SUP rack is super high quality. The construction, padding and detail is tremendous. They have been installed and work perfectly for my two 12' SUP's. Wish I had done this long ago!

Worked like a champ, very easy to install, stores boards at an angle instead of flat thus taking up less horizontal space.

lovely experience.

Heavy duty and have foam protection. I store 2 large boards, 11' 6" and 12' with no issues.

They couldn't have been made any lighter

The SUP wall rack seems to support my boards okay so far, but I wonder what they will be like 5 years down the road. I was surprised to see how light weight the material was.
