Anyone with a garage or shed knows it takes a smart strategy to keep everything organized. The Racor InterChange Walldocking Kit is an intelligent storage solution that frees up floor space and puts your items right where you need them.

Universal System Adjusts to Meet Your Needs
InterChange WallDocks are cleverly designed to work with all InterChange hanging storage solutions, giving you the freedom to create customized storage that adapts to your needs. For example, WallDocks make it easy to arrange your items by season--in the warmer months, you can arrange your hooks to put golf clubs and hoses within easy reach, in the cooler months, you can rearrange the hooks to put rakes and shovels where you need them most.

Easy to Install and Use
The only tools you need to install a Walldock are a stud finder and a drill/screwdriver. Once you've installed your Walldocks on your garage or shed wall, all you have to do is snap the hooks and bins into place. To release a hanger or basket, just press the Walldock's button--no tools are required.

Because the hooks, baskets, hangers, cord wraps, and racks are so easy to snap and release, you can actually get your work done more efficiently. Need to remove a basket of hardware? Simply press the button on the Walldock to release, and take the whole thing with you. When you're ready to put the basket away, just snap it back into place.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great concept... but do we really need to have all of the attachments be so interchangeable??, October 20, 2010

(What's this?)

Fuzzy Wuzzy's Summary:
**** Recommended with warm fuzzies.

The Racor InterChange system is like the garage version of mix-and-match separates in fashion. In theory, you mix and match its wide variety of hangers and hooks, moving different attachments onto the various WallDocks that you have permanently mounted onto the walls of your garage, workroom, basement, etc. And so, in theory, during the summers, you want your gardening tools and summer recreational toys hanging on those WallDocks, and during the winters, you want your snow shovel, skis and snowshoes hanging on those same WallDocks instead. But in reality, when you swap out your summer gear for your winter gear, where would you store your summer gear then??? This reminds me of comedian Steven Wright's quote of: "You can't have everything. Where would you put it?"

Every so often, I get an itch to completely redecorate rooms in my house, repainting walls with completely different colors, and moving sofas, seating, tables, furnishings, accents around. But for the stuff that I normally keep in my garage, I want consistency in the location of where garden hose, gardening tools, extension cords, snowshoes, ice axe, etc, are located. Also, to really ensure that you can move the hooks around to the different WallDocks that are mounted in your garage, thus allowing you to hang a variety of items throughout the year, you would need to mount each WallDock with plenty of spacing separating between each WallDock. But this would also make far less efficient use of your garage wall space.

I am a little wary of getting too close to the hooks' 50-pound rated load capacity (when the WallDocks are firmly screwed into the wall studs). I have a fairly heavy 22-foot telescoping multi-ladder than weighs close to 50 pounds, and it does seem to be hanging okay on one of the hooks. But I also purposely positioned the hook so that the ladder hangs very close to the ground in case the hook ever breaks/bends under repeated fatigue.

Overall, I like this package... NOT for the reason that I can move all of my hooks around back and forth, but more for the usefulness of all the attachments provided. Now, if someone could invent an InterChange system that lets me rotate my house on its foundation so that my windows face south during the winter and face north during the summer, I would really be in a tizzy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally I have a clean garage, April 9, 2010

This review is from: Racor InterChange ICK-11B 23-Piece WallDocking Kit, Black (Tools & Home Improvement)

I've had this product for a while and it is doing great holding many of the items that I would normally lean against the garage wall. It was easy to install - I installed the walldocks using 2 screws into studs to make sure they would stay in place for a long time. The hooks snap onto the walldocks. If you ever want to remove the hook, or move it to another walldock, you push a red button in the middle of the walldock and the hook "unlatches" from it. every hook fits on every walldock.

the best part really is the amount of items you can place on them. I have 2 bikes, 50 foot hose, many extension cords, a ladder, car cleaning stuff, weed wacker, leaf blower, and at least 6 shovels/rakes/dethacher and other items. I think it is alot of items that are now safely on the wall of the garage and out of the way.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for Kids Gear, August 25, 2010

(What's this?)

Pros
this set is so easy the kids all helped clean out the garage and set it all up
we can move out the seasonal toys with no problem
have so much more room in the garage now too

Cons
would be nice if the product would come with information about load bearing on each hook
for this reason we are only using it for the lighter kids items
one thing is it seems too easy to change them out
but so far thankfully kids have not snapped one off
when they go to get their gear off them
(though i did it once )

for this reason i am going to just give the product three stars
because i think should be more of a way to really lock it in place once it is on the wall
so far on two different hooks when i took an item off i hit the red button
so i guess for me i just have to be more careful when i am getting things off the hooks

as for those saying it is nuts to move stuff around
we do it all the time in our garage with 6 kids things are moving all the time around here
yes most of the big items and tools do not change from their locations
but is nice to move items that are not being used in the winter like rakes to the back
and move the shovels to the front now not sure the style of hooks i will change out alot
guess will have to wait and see with more usage if we change out the hooks much or just the items on the hooks
