Outdoor Kayak Storage Rack for Hillsides

Ground Buried Kayak Rack for Outdoor Hillside Storage

Outdoor kayak storage is a convenient and popular option. It increases accessibility for frequent paddlers, frees up valuable indoor space, offers better ventilation for your craft reducing the risk of mold and mildew and it can add appeal to your property. However, not all outdoor surfaces are flat.

If you find yourself wanting to store your kayak or canoe outside but are troubled by uneven ground or a sloping shoreline, we have the perfect solution for you.

Ground-Buried Kayak Racks for Hills & Uneven Ground

As the name suggests, these kayak racks are meant to be buried in the ground. They are crafted from weather-resistant cedar logs and are supported by two 4 5/8-inch ground-buried posts, rather than legs that would require a flat surface, allowing for installation on hills and uneven ground.

The two posts can be buried up to 48” deep and they can be buried at different depths to ensure an even, level kayak rack regardless of whether the ground they are being installed on is even or not.

Benefits of Our Ground Buried Kayak Racks

Study and stable, ideal for heavier watercraft.
Ideal for hills and uneven outdoor surfaces where freestanding racks would be difficult to level.
Posts can be attached directly to your dock for convenient on the water storage.

How to Assemble Your Log Kayak Rack

Log Kayak Rack handcrafts heavy-duty kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddle board (SUP) storage racks from northern white cedar logs. Our kayak racks can be shipped free of charge anywhere in the continental United States and hassle-free to Canada. When your package arrives, it will be unassembled in a box. Assembly is easy and can be done in less than an hour.

What You Need to Assemble Your Log Kayak Rack

You will find assembly instructions along with most of the materials you need inside the box.

Each kayak rack comes with:

Feet, Cross Rails, Legs, Upper and Lower Arms, and Lower Support Posts (all labeled)
Instruction Pack
3 Inch GRK Screws
4 Inch GRK Screws
Two Tips, Green and Black for Drill or Screw Gun (in the bag with 3 inch screws)
Decking Screws
Glue

Materials needed, but not Included:

Rubber Hammer/Mallet
Power Drill or Screw Gun
Gloves (optional)

Assembling Your Log Kayak

Once you’ve gathered all the necessary materials, it’s time to start putting your Log Kayak Rack together. We have created several assembly videos to assist. You can watch them here and follow along.

Step 1. Open the box up and unpack materials

Remove the feet, cross rails, legs, upper and lower arms. You will have a different number depending on what size and style rack you purchased, but the assembly follows the same basic instructions. You will also find an instruction pack that has all the screws and glue you will need to complete the assembly.

Step 2. Ready the posts

Grab the parts labeled posts. They are the ones with tenon or protruding end and located the angled holes and apply glue to the inside, wiping around with your finger or glove. Repeat for the second post and place on the floor along a wall that you can use for support.

Step 3. Put the arms in

Start with the pieces labeled lower arms. They will have one hole drilled in the top. Slip them into the glued hole on the post and tap with hammer. Lean it against the wall and then repeat with the top arms.

Then you’ll secure the arms with screws. You’ll need either a drill or ratchet for this part. First, you’ll use the 4-inch GRKs and the black tip to screw the base of each arm to the post. Then, using the green tip and the deck screws, you’ll put two more screws into each arm, one from each side of the post. Repeat for the other side.

Step 4. Connect the base

Now that the sides are done, you’ll want to lay them out on the floor how they are going to go with space for the base in between. Grab the feet or bases and just like you did for the posts, circle the glue around in the hole and wipe it around with your finger or glove.

Then with the longer side under the arms, slip the post into the hole and use the hammer to secure. And do the same thing with the other foot.

5. Attach the cross rails

Start by applying glue to the rail holes in both of the posts. Grab the piece labeled upper rail. Slip it into the upper hole of one of the posts and secure with a 4-inch GRK screw, using the black tip on your drill. Then grab the piece labeled lower rail, slip it into the glued hole and again secure with a 4-inch GRK screw using your drill.

Go ahead and stand that side of the rack up and attach the cross rails to the other post, putting the upper rail in the upper hole and the lower rail in the lower rail. Center them on the post and secure using two more GRK screws.

6. Screw the posts to the feet and add supports

First make sure the base is lined up, tapping it back and forth until the base is parallel with the arms and it’s square on the back. Then put the 3-inch GRKs into the base, one on each side.

Next, you’ll put in the bottom support post, tapping it in and making sure it’s square on the back of the post. Then screw in place from the top with one of the GRK screws and at the bottom with three of the decking screws. Repeat for the other side and now your log kayak rack is complete.

Organize Your Garage with a Log Kayak Rack

Owning your own kayak, canoe or paddleboard is loads of fun. You’re free to paddle whenever and wherever you want but figuring out where to keep your kayak when you’re not using it is not nearly as fun.

Their awkward shape and bulky size can make it difficult to find just the right spot. If you have the space, storing your kayak in your garage is an excellent option. It’s protected from the snow, rain, and UV rays. It’s much better protected from theft, and it is less likely to be damaged. The right rack or storage system can help keep your garage neat and orderly and your kayak easily accessible.

Kayak Storage Options for Your Garage

The right kayak storage system will be determined by your space, needs and preferences. Many people like to hang their boats from the garage ceiling. It certainly takes up less floor and wall space, but it’s not always very practical when you want to use your kayak. We’re all for keeping your garage organized and your kayak out of the way, just not so far out of the way that it becomes a hassle to use it. Our ideal kayak storage keeps your boats and accessories orderly, but also easily accessible.

Wall-Mounted Kayak Racks

We offer a wall mounted storage rack that keeps your kayaks, canoes and paddleboards safe and secure, while only needing a small amount of space. This sturdy, handcrafted storage rack can be mounted right to your garage wall and will leave enough space for you to still park both of your cars in your garage. It will not only help you maximize the space of your garage, but it will keep your canoe, kayak or SUP high, dry and easily accessible!

Free-Standing Kayak Racks

Our free-standing kayak racks are self-supporting and do not need to be attached or anchored to the ground or a wall, making them perfect for inside your garage. You can move it around as needed to clean, organize or rearrange your garage. Our single sided option offers a reduced footprint and can be pushed flush against one wall for even more space saving.

Accessory Organization Racks

If trying to keep your garage organized is your top priority, it’s important to have a designated place for your paddles, life jackets and other accessories. Log Kayak Rack has the perfect rack for that too. Check out our wall mounted paddle rack and our life jacket wall rack for the perfect storage solution to keeping all your accessories neat and orderly.

Keep Your Kayak in Great Shape with Proper Storage

No matter where you decide to keep your kayak or what kind of rack you go with it’s important to remember to keep it off the ground, support the hull, store it upside down and always dry it thoroughly before storing.

Ground Buried Vs Free Standing Kayak Racks

At Log Kayak Rack, we handcraft heavy-duty kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddle board (SUP) storage racks out of northern white cedar logs. We offer a huge selection of commercial-grade kayak racks that can store and display anywhere from one to eight kayaks at a time. Two of our most popular styles include our freestanding and ground buried kayak racks.

Both are great options, but depending on your specific storage location and needs, one could outperform the other. Let’s take a closer look at these two styles and see how they stack up.

Ground-Buried Kayak Racks

As the name suggests, these kayak racks are meant to be buried in the ground. Ours are crafted from weather-resistant cedar logs and have a 4 5/8-inch post that can be buried up to 48” deep.

Benefits & Uses for Ground Buried Kayak Racks

Ground-buried models must be used for outdoor storage.
Once installed, they cannot be easily moved or relocated.
Ground-buried kayak racks can be used on hills and uneven outdoor surfaces where freestanding racks would be difficult to level.
Not only can the posts be buried in the ground, but they can be attached directly to your dock for convenient on the water storage.
They provide added security.
They are ideal for heavier watercraft.

Freestanding Kayak Racks

These racks are self-supporting and do not need to be attached or anchored to the ground or a wall. Ours are each constructed with 4 5/8-inch posts and feet made from weather-resistant cedar logs to keep the rack stable.

Benefits & Uses for Freestanding Kayak Racks

Freestanding kayak racks can be used indoors or outdoors.
There is no need to screw or drill into your walls or the ground.
They can be single sided or double sided.
Freestanding racks require a level surface.
They can be moved much easier than ground buried racks when needed.
In windy locations, ground anchors might be necessary.

Choosing the Right Kayak Rack for You

Before you purchase your kayak rack, it’s important to know where you are going to be keeping it. Our freestanding racks provide great flexibility for indoor and outdoor storage, and they can be easily relocated. But if you are looking to install on a hillside or other uneven surface, on a dock or need the added security, ground-buried is probably the better option. You’ll also want to think about how many kayaks or canoes you are storing and your own style preferences.

Can You Store Your Kayak Outside?

Owning a kayak and being able to head out on the lake whenever and wherever you want is great, but kayaks are big and bulky and finding a place to store them inside can be challenging and inconvenient. Keeping them closer the water and at the ready would be ideal, but is it OK to store them outside?

Indoor vs Outdoor Kayak Storage

Keeping your kayak indoors offers the best protection. It’s better protected from the elements like direct sunlight, rain, high winds, hail and snow. It’s harder for someone to steal or vandalize and it’s less likely to become inhabited by a small critter. But it’s not always very practical. Storing your kayak outdoors is fine, as long as you take a few precautions.

How to Safely Store Your Kayak Outdoors

Proper storage is key to keeping your kayak in tip-top shape and protected from damage. A good storage location is one that limits exposure to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight and moister. You’ll also want to keep it off the ground. Here are some tips for storing your kayak outside.

Keep it Shaded

A nice shady spot will help protect your kayak from harmful UV rays and excessive heat. If your property doesn’t offer a lot of natural shade, consider placing it below the eaves of a roof or under a strung-up tarp. We do not recommend wrapping the kayak in the tarp. This can create a wet environment that promotes mold or fungal growth as well as hold snow or rainwater, which can deform the boat and exceed the weight limits if using a kayak rack.

Protect from Moisture

Constant exposure to rain and snow can degrade hull materials overtime. When storing your kayak outside, make sure you store it upside down so water can’t collect in the kayak. You can also wrap each kayak in a waterproof and UV-protected kayak cover for additional protection.

Keep it Off the Ground

Use a kayak rack or suspension cords to keep your kayak off the ground. Storing your kayak directly on the ground or floor can cause hull deformation and exposes it to dirt and moisture.

Keep it Clean

You should always give your kayak a rinse off before storing it to remove dirt, sand, salt and grime.

Distribute the Weight

Uneven weight distribution or even tight straps can cause hulls to deform over time. A quality rack can help make sure your kayak is properly and evenly supported.

Protect it from Theft

With outdoor storage, unfortunately, you may need to consider protecting your kayak from being stolen. Keep it hidden from view, if possible, and consider adding a security cable and lock.
