Home bike storage ideas

Submitted by RFranco on Sat, 12/20/2014 - 2:16pm

For 16 years I have been very happy with my floor to ceiling bike rack that holds 4 bikes. But I adopted 2 cats who are now using it as a tree. One of the cats has no problem jumping down from the top, but the other is not as athletic. So I am considering a new configuration. I need a system to hold 3 bikes that cats cannot climb upon. It also has to be low enough so I can lift the bikes into place. I thought of using bike hooks and hanging them aside each other. That's a possibility although the cats could probably climb up that too. I also wonder if there is a more aesthetic solution. It has to look good as well as functional.

Thanks for your ideas!
