Fleximount is not 50% stronger because of six posts, both are rated at 600# loads. SafeRacks chooses to use only four posts for cosmetic as well as the convenience of not having an obstruction of a middle post when loading/unloading. The SafeRacks has heavy gauge steel rails and larger bolts and lag screws so it meets the same load rating with only the four posts.
Can you cut the supports so the shelves can work in a 21" spacing between ceiling and garage door? I know it says lowest is 22" but i assume can just use a multitool to cut a bracket to be shorter
My Costco shelves that are 4x8 also have 3 attachments(on each side) on top and two lagbolts go in each bracket that goes into the ceiling. VERY secure. I much prefer the look of the Saferack ones too, in gray at least.
. ?? When loaded, why are you worried about uplift? And where would that uplift come from? Not a reason at all. Middle support, yes, uplift worries, no. Bought mine from Amazon and did not have middle support

Glad you like your shelves. I’d like to see those shelves with the posts on each side. That is awesome. I’ve not seen that model before.
