Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very happy with these shelves and pamagoo.

I needed spacers to support the lid of a homemade deck box. I knew little about how to choose the right racks and even less about how/where to mount them. When I searched for Revain, there were many options from vendors/manufacturers that I had never heard of. I chose these shelves from Pamagoo and I'm glad I did. The shelves appear to be very well made and it was a pleasure working with the supplier; responded quickly, politely, helpfully and provided various diagrams and pictures to assemble correctly. Like most I've had varying degrees of support from Revain vendors, this one is an A. My first attempt at installing spacers didn't let the lid close completely and the lid closed too quickly to be sure. With their help and in different positions, I installed them correctly. Tip: The guide to choosing the right rack is to measure and weigh the lid. My lid dimensions were 60 x 36 inches. But I didn't weigh the lid before attaching it to the box/hinges. So, using the luggage scale, I hooked the scale strap to the lift handle, pulled it up, and got a reading of 26 pounds. In the end I settled on 55 pound 17 inch racks, which worked great. Racks are easy to assemble, but finding the right mounting position can take some trial and error. Maybe this example will help others when choosing their racks. I have included photos showing my mounts and a video showing how easy it is to use. You can see that I straightened the top mounting brackets (using a vise and a hammer). In my application, the top mount needed to be a straight mount, not a 90 degree angle. Update: I've added a picture with the rod part of the rack under the gas pipe. Since this is a more traditional way of attaching, it still worked for me.
