With the bike rack I couldn't use the studs because of the width of the holes in the bike holder.
Any suggestions for this problem? Know anyone that can install these things properly? Thanks!
What type of wall anchors did you use? You say you couldn't use the studs for the bike rack, what about the ladder hangers? They should have gone into studs. For the bike rack you might have to be a bit more creative, as Villager Dude suggested.
