How low does the kayak hang below the ceiling when fully raised?
381052
Our kayaks sit between 28 1/2" to about 33" from the ceiling (or the mounting 2x4, depending on the method you use). Since ours are mounted across the ceiling joists we had to use a 2x4 (per the instruction) so add another 1 1/2" to this. If you see our review we noted that we had to use different straps than the one's that come with the mount. This may cause ours to be a little lower. It looks like the new version may have different straps which may work better. The original straps on our 10 foot kayaks would not work; they just slipped of the end. Hope this helps.

My kayak (Necky, Manitou - 49lbs) hangs about a foot from the ceiling. You can get it closer, but you have to rig the staps so there is no slack between the hook and the kayak. Note the picture provided, there is a significant space between the hook and boat. By reducing that space you can get the kayak pretty close to the ceiling. Sinching the strap tight doesn't work well with heavy boats because the staps seem to "stretch" over time. The Manitou doesn't streach very much, but I also have a 80lb Old Town, Discovery 169 (Tripper) canoe and it has "settled" 6 inches from the ceiling over the past two months. I have an 11 foot ceiling and the kakyak, even with some slack, is a foot above the garage door. My kayak (Necky, Manitou - 49lbs) hangs about a foot from the ceiling.

I bought it to use at a high counter. I originally had trouble getting it up, but I've never needed to lower it.Sorry not to be of help.

My kayaks are in them right now, but standing underneath and measuring from wall to tip is 14 inches.

I lived in a single wide trailer when I was using this. I don't have the exact measurements but the ceilings were low and I was able to run comfortably. It doesn't come up abnormally high.

I think so. The pull cord is way longer than I need for my 8 foot ceilings. I have quite an excess of cord, but then where I have it tied down to the wall is very close to where the Kayak is. So I think you need to consider ahead of time where the tie-off on the wall will be as it relates to where you mount the unit on the ceiling.

It goes about as high as our two story house. Comes down fairly soon after going up--doesn't hang too long. Lots of fun!

Unlike other ellipticals, the Octane is very low. What is the height of your ceiling?

The closest I've been able to bring the object you want to store (for me its a kayak) to the ceiling is about23-24 inches. So, to answer your question, you have to measure from the top of your 'object' you want to store to the bottom plus 23 inches.. Figuring this all out in my head, doesn't look like you have enough room with the garage door open.

If your ceiling is 8 feet or so, the chains are adjustable and at their full length should make it low enough to reach. My wife is under 5 feet and she can reach.

Yes, it is adjustable. You can make it closer to the ceiling, but you can't make it hang any lower.

About 1-1/4". If you use washers or spacers underneath, you can raise it higher.

Ours is hanging from just under 7 feet. That is about as low as you probably want to go.

It will really be based on what kind of boat you have, what I did with mine to solve that problem is I did not use the straps that it came with, I instead attached my boat to the hooks so it would raise up higher. Most kayaks have a strap already attached to the boat on both ends, so you will be able to go closer to the ceiling. I have mine going sidways so it is attached to two seperate cross beams in my garage.

The system is bolted to a board on top of the rafters. Even so, the bottom of my canoe is at least 3.5 feet below the bottom of the rafters. I situated my system after the the location of the door.

I haven't had any ceiling height issues at all -- not even a close issue whatsoever. Mine is stored in the garage, which is the standard 2-car garage attached to the house. I'm thoroughly enjoying this tool organizer. Hope this info helps you.

When mounted using the short mandatory extension, and the light kit, the bottom of the fan is approximately 18 inches from the ceiling. Add about another 6 inches for the chains hanging down. There is a slightly longer extension, but that would make it about another 3 to 6 inches below that as well.
