DIY Bicycle Rack

Storing multiple bicycles can be a hassle, especially if you want to avoid mounting them on the wall. To address this, I designed a simple, practical storage system using square-shaped aluminum rods and curtain cables from IKEA.

Building the Hanger

I started by cutting the aluminum rods to the desired lengths and assembling them into a rectangular frame. The structure is designed to hold up to four bicycles. To add stability, I used curtain cables to reinforce the frame, ensuring it remains sturdy and doesn't wobble.

Features

• Capacity: The hanger can store up to four bicycles.
• Mobility: The entire structure is easy to move, making it simple to clean around or rearrange as needed.
• Stability: The addition of curtain cables from IKEA provides extra support, keeping the frame stable.

Materials Used

• Square-shaped aluminum rods
• IKEA curtain cables
