Maximizing Off-Season Storage: How to Use the TRAPSKI Tower as a Wall-Mounted Ski Rack
Feb 17, 2025
Ski season may come to an end, but that doesn’t mean your gear should be left in a messy pile in the garage or shoved into a corner. Proper ski storage is key to keeping your equipment in top condition, and the TRAPSKI Tower isn’t just a ski rack for your vehicle—it’s a year-round storage solution.
When winter is over, you can easily mount your TRAPSKI Tower on the wall, keeping your skis safe, organized, and ready for next season. Here’s how to take advantage of this space-saving, dual-purpose ski rack and make ski storage effortless.
Why Wall-Mount Your TRAPSKI Tower?
Many skiers struggle with ski storage during the off-season. Leaning skis against a garage wall or stacking them in a closet can lead to warping, scratching, or unnecessary wear and tear. The TRAPSKI Tower offers a better way by providing:
✔ Vertical, upright storage to prevent damage and save space
✔ Easy accessibility when you’re ready for the next season
✔ A clean, organized garage, storage room, or ski locker
✔ Multi-use functionality, allowing you to use the same rack in your car and at home
Instead of buying a separate wall rack, simply use your TRAPSKI Tower year-round and get the most out of your investment!
How to Mount the TRAPSKI Tower for Off-Season Storage
One of the best features of the TRAPSKI Tower is its built-in wall-mounting capability. With pre-drilled holes spaced 16 inches on center, installation is simple. Follow these steps to secure your skis properly for off-season storage:
Step 1: Choose the Right Wall Space
Find a dry, cool, and stable location—such as your garage, basement, or ski locker. Avoid places with excess moisture or extreme heat, which could affect ski materials over time.
Step 2: Locate Studs or Use Anchors
Using a stud finder, locate two studs in your chosen wall. The TRAPSKI Tower’s pre-drilled holes are perfectly spaced for stud mounting, ensuring a secure hold. If mounting on drywall without studs, use heavy-duty wall anchors to support the weight.
Step 3: Secure the TRAPSKI Tower to the Wall
Align the pre-drilled holes on the top bar of the TRAPSKI Tower with the marked stud locations. Use screws and washers to attach the rack securely. A drill or screwdriver will make this process quick and easy.
Step 4: Organize Your Skis
Once the rack is mounted, place your skis in the designated slots. The upright design helps prevent unnecessary pressure on ski edges and bindings while keeping everything neatly stored.
Step 5: Use the Security Strap for Extra Stability
Even when mounted on the wall, the provided security strap can be used to keep skis extra secure. If you didn’t use the strap much in your car, now’s the time to put it to work!
More Than Just Ski Storage
The TRAPSKI Tower isn’t just a ski rack—it’s a versatile storage system that can be used for:
✅ Snowboards – Keep them stored safely alongside your skis.
✅ Ski Poles – Organize all your gear in one place.
✅ Boots & Helmets – Use additional wall hooks nearby for complete ski storage.
Having a dedicated ski storage area makes pre-season prep and winter adventures much smoother.
Keep Your Skis Safe & Ready for Next Season
Ski storage doesn’t have to be a hassle. With the TRAPSKI Tower, you get a year-round solution that works both in your vehicle and at home. By mounting your rack on the wall during the off-season, you’ll keep your gear organized, protected, and easily accessible—so when the first snowfall hits, you’re ready to go!
