eeh. Friendly tip.. in that application go with a u-bolt.
You could find something to "straddle" the beam and give you some additional confidence. You really shouldn't lift with things "drilled into" objects.
Great vid. Make sure you encourage better securing the hoist when setting up the winch for the 800 pound capacity. Someone will get killed with those lag bolts. Use another unistrut on top and sandwich the beams in between. With the threaded rod and nuts on each end and one in the middle. Now your load would have to break the truss not a cruddy bolt head ;-).
Safety first is always the most important. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching palmano.
Glad I wasn't the only one concerned about how much weight was reliant on two lag bolts in wood!
I added a couple of 2x8 going up and down on the joist up above I also used a 2 inch pipe to hold hoist and have big bolts on some u straps screwed into the ceiling joist
Curious if it's ripped out of the 2 screws yet
I LOVED THIS! I gotta get one of those hoists.
Great to hear Leah. Its going to be quite the helpful second hand thats for sure :) Thanks for watching.
def look up how to use that small snatch block - you should not remove those bolts to use it instead pull the pin to open the snatch block assembly. just a helpful tip. love your channel! thank you.
Nice hoist.
I wouldn't trust those bolts though.
I would put brackets that had 1/2" bolts going 3to5 inches up those 2x10s.
Lateral forces are much safer than pure gravitational forces.
For additional safety, plywood sheets could be married to the joists.
Great suggestion Stan. These bolts are extremely strong but Yes it wouldn't hurt to have some extra support to ensure safety. I'll keep that in mind for sure. Thanks for watching and the support.
Agreed...
Correct me if I’m wrong, but there is no way those bolts are rated to even 300lbs, someone is going to get hurt with that setup. I also would never trust the threads on those bolts to hold heavy loads in wood. You really need to anchor the hoist with a bar that goes through the joists, not attached below the joists by unrated deck screws.
these are structural screws that are well suited to this applications. on all the jobs i run i use these screws in leu of carriage bolts as they have superior load capability and are much faster
Suppose your load jerks or bounces even just a little. Those deck screws could easily pull out or snap off. It’s not the dead weight of a hammer that drives a nail it’s the force it exhorts when it is in motion. You get the point. At least use longer unistrut with bigger lags. Overbuilt is always better than undertaker.
Big thank you 🙏
Wie lange soll Deine Notlösung halten?? eine ,2 ,4 Wochen?? oder 2-3 Monate?? bis 400 kg an 2 besseren Brettern, hält nicht lange u. kann sehr gefährlich werden? viel Glück wünsche ich Dir...
Thank you very nice, now I got idea how To do in my house, hi from Ecuador 🇪🇨
Great to hear Jorge and awesome that I have fans from Ecuador. Thanks for watching and good luck on your project.
Oh yeah! :D I love diy channels, don't stop :)
Great to hear and thanks so much for the support. Greatly appreciated.
Awesome Awesome Awesome!!! Thank you bud!!
How much weight could be lifted the way you hooked it to the joists
Love it! Nice and simple
Why thank you Mr. Davern. Finally a simple project, right?! haha. Thanks for watching.
awesome videos, great electric hoist
Bought the hoist for 90 bucks on amazon today :-)
I got a question. Hoist wired controller lengths. How far from the floor is required. A foot? Also they can't tough the floor correct?
I don't trust the anchor screws.
It would bbe cool to add custom brackets w/rollers and a set of rails to move the hoist back and forward in the space. Something similar to what is used for super heavy doors in the Aerospace test environments I used to be a tech in. Antenna ranges, vacuum bell jars. etc. What is that hardware called, if anyone knows? Would be great for the ability to pull a motor as well as the body off the frame of a car without moving the vehicle. Some joist reinforcement and heavier hardware setup needed, of course.
When you tighten the bolts on the clamps around the strut does it tighten all the way or can you still slide it. Due to height I’m going to have to mount mine at an angle so if it tightens it will be fine
Love it. Been looking for a hoist and video with install instructions for a while. I'm installing to lift my Bronco hard top (only 100 pounds or so). Do you think the 12" bar would be enough (with lag screws) to lift it safely? If not, I could go with 5' bar.
Doing the same. 4 door hard top only weighs 68 lbs and 2 door hard top weighs 80 lbs. this will lift it and be safe no problem
How do you do this with the garage door opener in the way?
What size is that metal piece from Home Depot? That's the same as the HF 880, it's on sale for $109! I have 2 5 stack joists to mount into so I'll use 2 screws each side
No way just those boltas are safe to hold that kind of weight... Something dropping can cause a huge ammount of force much higher than the load.
I wanna lift a motorcycle 400 kg will the plugs hold this weight.
Gonna have two winches,but got a wood ceiling..
Can you tell me the dimensions on the bolts and washers you used to mount the struts?
Please don't use deck screws to hold 800 pounds, their very hard but brittle so not structural. I wouldnt ever trust the wood ither id want a longer metal beam and lag bolts all the way through to a backing plate of some kind behind the joist.
This could end really badly...
Appreciate your concern joe and very valid which is why I state in the video that if you are lifting very heavy loss that you should attach a longer strut so you can attach to multiple joists. However, no fused of your note on these screws being brittle. In my opinion these screws are EXTREMELY strong, hence why they are used for decks haha. Have you seen issues in the past?
@@BYOTools very dangerous,screws will pull out of wood,you will get hurt with that set up ,just common sense
Joe really do appreciate your concern but look up screw pullout strength tests. A simple drywall screw can average 400 or 500 lbs of pullout strength. The screws I am using can easily withstand 800 to 1,000 lbs of pullout strength EACH. I know it doesn’t seam like screws would have that much strength but they really do. Thanks for looking out though.
Change your screws to 5 or even 6inch 5/16 lag bolts, I have two 5 inch, and can lift my 650 bike with no problem.
@@BYOTools you're omitting the force generated by the moment (drum radius x force). moment force could create 3-4 times the line load putting you closer than you think to your assumed limit. if you look closely at the ads these winches are free to rotate on a round beam which removes this moment. cool hoists though
I want to make a trolley system for heavy bag use in my garage. I would to be able to hang two bags, with the ability to slide them into the middle of the room while issuing them, then off to the sides when not in use. Any tips? Thank you in advance
Is this too much overkill for you?

I don't think "pull out strength" is the issue. The issue is more of a shearing strength. An uneven load could snap the deck screws/ lags. Those deck screws/lags were not designed for that purpose. I would use at LEAST four 3/8" diameter lag bolts. The kind you use to secure a ledger board to a house when building a deck. Otherwise, nice job.
Ledger board is the hint.
When
Anyone else considering to install a hoist like this please remember that it is always a good practice to go over kill when mounting. In my opinion this gentleman did not do an adequate job. You do not want this unit to fall on you or your loved ones.
❤️
I bought this hoist, a 6-ft long unistrut, six 5/8 x 4-inch lag screws, and washers and proceeded to install everything just like in this video. Before I drilled my first hole, I changed my mind and returned everything. There was no way this could be a safe set-up.
You regret it after a year?
Did you use a span calculator or talk an engineer to determine the capacity of the joists and of the screws. Just saying the lag bolts are good enough for decks is meaningless. That setup is shaky at best. Keep people away.
You are ASKING for an accident and problems. Those deck screws are NO WHERE NEAR strong enough at all. People please do not do this unless you want the hoist to come smashing in your head or dropping a load
James really do appreciate your concern but look up screw pullout strength tests. The screws I am using can easily withstand 800 to 1,000 lbs of pullout strength EACH. I know it doesn’t seam like screws would have that much strength but they really do. But I do suggest adding a larger steal strut to provide more strength to the overall system if you are worried. Thanks for looking out and watching.
@@BYOTools I used these screws rated same if not better than lag bolts and afixed a angle bracket down a 12in header with 4 screws on each of the two brackets with a L -90 bracket across the 3 headers and bolted to each angle.... not going anywhere.
@@walterschilling4512 I'd love to see some pictures of this - sounds spot on.
It was at 1:20 when I had the same thought. Might be good enough. But probably would span 4 joists minimum
them rafters and screws aint going to hold 400 kilos
Just gave you Like #666. You're welcome! :D
Are you serious? Allowing ANY weight to pull straight down on a screw is extremely dangerous. You should remove this video.
