Bought two of these to install our kayaks on the wall in our shed. They are easy to install (studs are not covered), and the kayaks were easy to set in and secure. With these installed, we have freed up significant room in our shed, because we had been hanging a kayak from the ceiling. With the new installation, the kayak protrude less than 18 inches from the wall, but are pushed to the back ensuring they are up and out of the way. I did notice "information" that stated these would stow the boat and the paddles. There is nothing special for stowing the paddles. For one set of paddles, they are taken apart and set inside the boat. For the other set, which are not collapsible, we placed the paddles "behind" the boat which secures them up and out of the way.39559

I purchased these bars not to mount to a wall, but to mount to a stand that I made out of wood that I could store in the garage or take down to the lake on weekends at the cottage. The Swagman product works great and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an inexpensive way to store kayaks. On-line, I'd have to pay $300-$400 for a good quality stand and after purchasing the hooks and wood, I spent less than $200 without my time of course. These are a good quality product and well worth the low price!39387

The Swagman Kayak Rack, exceeded my expectations. I've seen "J" shaped bent tubing that was selling for $2 less and it didn't even have padding. These mount easily to the wall and pivot out of the way; so they would be perfect mounted in a trailer or small garage, so when you take down the Kayak, the rack is out of the way. If I sell my house, I will take these with me!! As an engineer, i wanted to make my own rack, but after finding these, why waste my time. If you buy these, you won't be sorry, they are great. 29894

These kayak racks are fantastic. I bought four sets and mounted them inside an enclosed trailer to haul my four boats in. They handle all the jostling around being on the road very well. I highly recommend them. If you are putting them on your wall in the garage, they'll likely last forever.26532

Built well, and really minimizes the space needed to store my kayak. The foam works well to protect the kayak and the wall mounts have an extender that keeps the foam clear of the wall when swinging the arms in. If I get a second kayak, these are the racks I'm storing it on!79495

Will be installed this summer on a pier. Not sure how it will hold up in a saltwater environment but we'll see. Shipping took quite some time but that was due to a lack of inventory on the manufacturer's part. Etrailer was excellent on providing regular updates on the estimated shipping date as well as suggesting alternate products in case I couldn't wait. They shipped it as soon as possible and didn't charge for the product until it was shipped. Exceptional customer service.73177

Good, versatile design for wall mounting of kayaks, other slender boats. Boats with a lot of rocker may be difficult to mount due to the limited width of the cradles.72830

First of all, eTrailer was great, fast shipping and follow-up emails, even after delivery. I have 2 kayaks so I ordered 2 pairs of the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounts. The wall mounts went up fine. I like the way I can pull the pin and swing the empty racks toward the wall. I mounted mine high on the exposed garage studs. Next we picked up the kayaks and turned them and set them in the brackets. They went in easy and secure. Next we just strapped them in just for extra security. The Kayaks stick out about 16" from the wall, well out of the way of the garage doors, our truck and SUV.58336

Storage Racks installed very easily. Racks were exactly what I needed to get my Kayak off my garage floor & stored on the wall, taking up very limited space. Great product at a good price. 57958

We debated for a long time what hangers we would purchase for our Pongo100 kayaks. We decided to go with the Swagman Tojo. They were easy to hang and easy to set our kayaks in. Great product. Would make the same choice again if we needed more hangers. Very well made. Instructions were easy to follow. After we got the first set of hangers up the second set went up even faster. etrailer was great to work with and we received the product promply.40082

I was looking for a product to correctly store my kayak in the garage, and this is it! It was easy to install, took maybe 15 minutes, and it works great. I think the quality and value for the money is excellent, and would definitely recommend it to anyone. It's the right tool for the job... 37847

  • What Are Dimensions of the Swagman Tajo Kayak Storage System # S65146
  • I walked out to our warehouse and measured the Swagman Tajo Kayak Storage System, part # S65146. I then used Photoshop to illustrate the dimensions of part # S65146. I have linked instructions and a picture showing the dimensions of the Swagman Tajo Kayak Storage System # S65146.

  • What is Weight Capacity of Swagman Tajo Kayak Storage System # S65146
  • I contacted our representative at Swagman about the Swagman Tajo Kayak Storage System, part # S65146. He informed me that the weight limit of this kayak wall mount storage system is 200 lbs. The width of your kayak should not effect mounting it, as each end of the kayak will attach to the arms of the Tajo Kayak Storage System.

  • Will the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounted Kayak Storage System Accept a Current Design Extreme Kayak
  • The overall width of the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounted Kayak Storage System, # S65146, is approximately 18-1/2 inches. But this measurement is important if the rack was mounted in such a way that it was holding the kayak right at the middle at its widest point. You will want to mount the rack to the wall to where the rack is supporting the narrower ends of the kayak. The bottom bar sticks out 11 inches, see picture, so if the kayak is very tall at the ends, it could be awkward to mount it. I

  • Can the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounted Kayak Storage System Be Mounted Outside
  • Yes, the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounted Kayak Storage System, # S65146, can be used out of doors, but you will see accelerated deterioration of the rubber padding and straps and corrosion on the parts due to being out in the sun and weather. If you have a shaded spot that is protected from the sun and other elements, that would be the best location for hanging the storage system. I added a link to the installation instructions for you to review. I also added a photo that one of our customers se

  • Swagman Tajo Wall Mount Kayak Rack for Native Ultimate Kayak
  • I spoke with my Swagman representative, who told me that as long as your kayak does not weigh more than the 200 lb capacity of the Tajo Wall Mounted Rack, it would work great for you. Keep in mind that the mounting brackets need to be secured through the wallboard and into wall studs, not just to the wallboard itself.

  • Best Wall-Mounted Kayak Storage System to Hold Penobscot Canoe
  • We do have an option for your Penobscot canoe, but after speaking to my contact at Swagman, he said the Swagman Tajo Wall-Mounted Kayak Storage System # S65146 you referenced would probably not be the best system for your canoe. The Tajo is made specifically for kayaks and he did not feel comfortable recommending it for your canoe. My recommendation is the Boone Paddle-Style Canoe Crib # BCK169. It has a weight capacity of 130 lbs and is 18 inches deep by 27 inches tall, more than enough room

  • How Far Out Will the Swagman Kayak Storage System Stick from a Wall when Mounted
  • I spoke with my contact at Swagman and he informed me that when mounted on a wall the Swagman Tajo Wall Mounted Kayak Storage System # S65146 will stick out 15 inches. I updated the picture you referenced to show this measurement and attached it. I also attached installation instructions for this product also.

  • Will Swagman Kayak Storage System # S65146 Accommodate a SIT-ON E-Motion Kayak
  • If the hull of your Kayak will fit within the dimensions of the bracket I have provided, the Swagman Kayak Storage system would work well for you. The spacing apart of the two brackets or hangers can be adjusted so that the system will accommodate just about any kayak. If at any point on your kayak the gunwales are 15 inches apart or less, the kayak will fit.
