I have a log home with exposed wooden beams in the ceilings. Can this rack simply be put on hooks screwed into the ceiling beam?

I think that is probably a better question for the manufacturer, but I would imagine it would be perfect for exposed wooden beams.

Absolutely. You tighten it by turning the top bar tight against the ceiling and can make it very tight. It is important to make sure you place the top bar where a stud/ceiling joist is if you have a drywall ceiling so that you don't damage or push the ceiling up as you tighten the pole. If you have a wood ceiling, no problem.

No, screw in hooks. It needs to be mounted to a solid structure like a ceiling beam. You will need to locate them with something like a stud finder.

I wouldn't recommend it, as there are screw holes in the cross beams on each end. You put a screw through the end pieces that secure the beams.

There's "swing hooks" that will install in the wood. I bought mine at WAL-MART

No it doesn't screw into the ceiling...trust me you wont fall if you secure the beams.

Yes you can screw it into the ceiling but I did not so i can not speak on its durability once secured in place.

Of course you can. Just make sure the mounting materials can hold the weight, and that you mount on to support beams, not drywall.

Yes if you anchor it correctly. The supplied screws will not be long enough to screw into the ceiling joist but if you purchase longer ones you should be fine. I feel with the weight of the rack and the glasses, plastic anchors will not be strong enough in drywall.

As long as you are mounting the assembly on the face of the ceiling joist or truss it can be bolted directly to it. Only when you are going perpendicular to the joist do you need the cross piece.

I use a sturdy support beam in my basement. I'm willing to bet there's ceiling mounts you can get in the event you don't have a beam strong enough

yes you can, and yes... youll need something to attach this fixture. depending on where youll hang it you can use from cable ties to even masking tape... the best for you would be to buy C-clamps and screw them up to the fixture's bracket. with these youll be able to move the fixture sideways and up and down as you please... if you tie the light's bracket down directly on the tree youll only get 1 of the axis to work for you... get the clamps...

The hooks should be installed into the beams with suitable eye bolt hangers. you can find these pretty cheap at a hardware store use Zinc coated if this is outside to prevent corrosion.Other than that just follow the instruction in the box.

The entire rack is designed to bolt/screw into your rafters (ceiling beams), so YES you can free hang in the center of the garage. You will need to locate the rafters to install.

I am not sure. Two of the chains are attached to a stud;the other two are just in the ceiling. My contractor told me that I should not worry about the latter two fastenings--just do not grossly overload the rack.

I wouldn't put a mount in the ceiling unless it is bolted to a joist or beam. It comes with a strap that works with a door, but that limits some of the work out. The straps are adjustable.

We live in a beach house with wood beams so we screwed a screw hook into the wood beam which is almost in the middle of the twin bed. We do take the net down after summer and just leave the hook up the rest of the year. It should be fine with a regular ceiling too though. Best of luck to you. :)
