A:  No, this item does not work with 20 inch joist spacing.

A:  It will work at 40. I have mine spaced that far apart.

A:  Yes, as long as it doesn't exceed the maximum weight for that can be stored.

A:  I think the shelf will hold around 150 - 200 pounds, if properly installed. But you should double check the specifications.

A:  Yes, it is strong enough to hold a bike.

A:  No I don't think it is strong enough. I store lightweight items on the ones I bought. Hope this helps.

A:  Hi Will, Yes the wire grids are strong enough to hold a bike. We have hooks made just for this purpose, item 00682.

A:  Depending on the weight of the bicycle (sic), probably yes. Suggest that you fix the two hooks for the bicycle to the main frame sections and not the wire sections. If you must connect to the wire sections, spread the four hooks evenly on the three wire sections as I had purchesd or the two wire sections that you had bought. I am storing a lot of weight on my hangers inside my garage.

A:  Weight capacity of 250 lbs. (when evenly distributed).

A:  I believe 200-250lbs

A:  The manufacture has figured the weight they can hold as long as each leg is screwed into a joist

A:  You can place the uprights at 24" apart, thus allowing installation in a 24" wide ceiling joist application.

A:  Mine are installed on 24" spaced joists. Install such that the beams are parallel to the joists. The platform can be shifted as needed to attach to the beams.

A:  Each leg on each side can be angled 11/2 inches to meet a 48 inch width to be screwed to on center of each joist

A:  The frame mounts to the joists and then the grid shelf mounts on top of the frame allowing the grid to overhang on each side.

A:  Figure out which way the joist goes in the garage. Parallel to the garage door or perpendicular to garage door. If parallel then find the joist with stud finder, use the template and drill holes at each end according to template. Now find the next closest joist and do the same as above. Once the main bars are hanging the metal grids lay on top of those two bars you just mounted to ceiling. Tighten all screws and bolts and done.
