The product, in the report: Manufacturer: CargoLoc brand of Allied International Website: www.alliedtools.com Product: Garage Hoist Ceiling Mount Product/Model Number: 32522 Description: This product was sold as a device to hoist equipment and store it hanging from a ceiling. I would classify it as household/garage storage.
This report involves the CargoLoc Ceiling Mount Garage Hoist.
This product is sold as a device to store large items by hanging them from the ceiling inside a home or garage or other structure. I specifically purchased it to store a kayak we purchased in July 2014. It advertises a weight capacity of 100 lbs, our kayak weighs no more than 75 lbs.
Upon purchasing the product, I followed all the manufacturer’s directions and mounted it to the most solid studs in the ceiling of my garage. It held our kayak up all winter long at a height of about 8 feet off the garage floor. It is designed for raising and lowering equipment up to 100 lbs and securing it above the floor.
Earlier today we returned from a trip, and with the assistance of my son, secured our kayak (using the product in full accordance with the directions from the manufacturer) in the product and raised it off the ground to the storage height of 8 feet. Upon completion, both my son and I noticed that one of the brackets looked different from the other and was clearly not flush with the ceiling.
Out of concern for safety and our kayak possibly crashing to the ground possibly hitting a vehicle or child, we attempted to lower the kayak to inspect the product. However, after lowering the kayak just two feet, part of a bolt from the product fell to our kayak. The product became unstable and unsafe, so I asked my son to get away. I tried to grab the kayak to ease it to the ground, but in the process lost control of the ropes that operate the product. With that, the other end of the kayak fell 6 feet to the concrete floor of our garage.
Thankfully it did not hit a person or vehicle. At this time I am still waiting to find out of damage was done to the kayak.
After we moved the kayak to another location for storage, we located the broken bolt. It was approximately one-half inch long, the remaining part of the bolt is still in the stud of the garage ceiling.
