We purchased two j-dock systems
for outdoor storage at our lake
house. Rather than mount them
into the wall as pictured
online, we sank two 4x4 deck
posts into the ground at a
suitable width to span the
length of our kayaks. A set of
brackets are fastened to
opposite sides of each post.
This kind of storage is working
well for us. Kayaks are off
the ground and generally safe
from critters. I expect the
brackets to weather fine in the
upcoming winter months.

The J-Docks are great. The
straps for the lower yak are
somewhat problematic. The yak
seems to slip very easily form
one end to the other. But, the
J-Docks are so good, I will

the other yal.

Initially bought a pulley type
hoist system to store my Hobie
Outback kayak up the garage
ceiling but was too difficult
for me to install by myself
and would have had to drill at
least 8 holes onto the
ceiling. After talking to the
guys at ACK they suggested the
Malone J-dock and it worked
perfect and was so easy and
quick to install. It did not
eat up a lot of space in my 2
car garage since the kayak is
on its side. Thank you ACK!

I have two 14.5 foot kayaks
that I was hanging on
a garage wall with straps. I
bought 2 of the
Malone J-docks to replace the
straps and make it
easier to get the boats up and
down from the wall.
The J-Docks work great. They
were easy to install
with the hardware out of the
box and mounted
securely with the help of an
electronic stud
finder. Also, I ordered them
on Friday and got
them the next day in Oklahoma
City! With the free
shipping! ACK is a great

we are using this right now to
support 2 kayaks
outdoors on our cedar plan
fence. so far so good.
this device is extremely well
made. thick, well
connected, and w/o any rough
edges. the
instructions recommended a
drill size for
predrillling the holes that
was too big. i was
disapointed by this, but i
switched to a smaller
bit and that made the final
install of the bolts
very snug. this device has
solved a lot of
problems, provided the weight
of 2 kayaks doesnt
overwhelm our outdoor fence.
the hanging straps
for our 2nd kayak are also
very very nice and
useful.

The Malone J-Dock Hybrid Kayak
Storage System is an excellent
way to store two kayaks.
Installation is simple.
Mounting the kayaks is a
breeze, too. The racks are
easily strong enough for 2
kayaks, paddles and more gear.
Austin had the lowest price by
far of any dealer. You cant go

Love it! A great space-saver
especially if you have a tight
garage like we do. A big plus
is hanging two for the price
of one! The only problem I
could think of is that the
mounting screws were waay too
large for a 2x4 stud. We used
3 deck screws and it was OK

Excellent rack. Heavy duty
quality. I did take the
suggestion to buy
longer bolts and add a 1/2
piece of wood behind the
racks. This
allows you to tighten bolts
really well without crunching
the rack
tubing into the drywall. Holds
two 13 kayaks. Highly
recommended.

Installed these racks and
worked better that I expected.
They look sharp and easily
holds both kayaks. Two
recommendations when
installing. If you use a
spacer block as others have
recommended, cut it to 3"x3"
and put the bottom screw in
first then slide the block in
the gaps. The block should be
an inch thick. The second
recommendation, on the height
I placed them at 5'5" feet.
This allowed me to place the
top kayak with ease and the
bottom without breaking the
back bending over.

were very reasonable in price
compared to other holders out

Works as intended. I do
recommend placing a spacer
block between the brackets top
mounting block and the wall.
The way this top block is
designed holds this piece
approximately 1/2" away from
the wall surface. When you
tighten down the lag screws
this mounting block tends to
bow inward towards the
mounting surface and allows
the bracket itself to loosen
over time. By inserting this
packing block you will prevent
this. Well made with this
single, easily correctable,
flaw.

Excellent product. We bought
four. My suggestion is that
the manufacturer or the
installer place a flat block
of wood in the void behind the
mounting plate. At present
when tightening the mounting
screws the frame will dig in
and crack the sheet rock if
tightened to much. And you do
want it tight to the wall.

The plastic mounting plate on one of the two mounts broke within 6 months of installation. Malone did replace the defective mount. I noticed as I replaced the mount that the plastic will flex if overtightened, leading to potential for further failure. The design probably should be modified to include the addition of a flat metal plate behind the tubular steel which mounts against the wall. Overall, a very good product as long as it stays mounted to the wall.

Well Built storage solution for 2 kayaks. Easy to install. I installed it outside to hang the kayaks along a fence panel in the backyard. Modified the storage loops on the bottom with a locking carribiner to hang a smaller kayak through the carry handles, as the spread between the fence posts was a little wide to store it through the bigger loops as directed. This actually made it have somewhat of a quick release feature. Over all this product is a good value and has many flexible uses.

Perfect solution to keeping your kayaks up, and out of the way when not on the water. Got mine at Austin Kayak.

Very solid. Some padding would be nice but a very nice product overall. Great service and lightning fast delivery from ACK as usual.

I am impressed with the J-Dock Storage system. Great price for a system that holds my two Necky kayaks perfectly.
I got mine at austinkayak.com

I too searched for a cost effective solution for getting my kayaks up and out of the way. I bought the Malone J-Dock because the price was great and I figured if it didn't work I wasn't out too much cash.
In a word, it's Great. I have two Ocean Kayak Scramblers on it and it holds them just fine. I have zero complaints about this product.
If you're looking for an inexpensive storage solution that actually works, this one is the bee's knees.

This is the best value in kayak storage. Looked all over for storage solutions to hang yaks in garage. This was affordable, well made, and solid. I have my two Otter Super Sports and all my gear on these two little hooks, and it is still solid. Money well spent.

Great kayak hanger! I hang my Malibu Kayaks X-13 on the bottom and my MINI-X on the top. Looks great and has a little room for extra gear.

Finally got to the wall in my garage so I could install the j-docks... installation was easy, use the top for a OK Caper and put my WS Ride on the bottom with straps.

Extremely happy. Well built and does the job well. The straps are long enough that I can hoist the kayak up by myself. Very easy to install

I was looking for something compact to store my Prijon touring boat. This worked great. Easy to install and holds the 62lb boat easily. The only negative I have is the plastic mold around the bolt hole. As I was tightening the bolt to the wall I managed to crack the plastic. It hasn't affected anything so far and I really don't expect it to.

We have 2 Dagger kayaks and all accessories stored on this rack. It works great, went up easily and helps the skirts and PFDs dry quickly.
Highly recommend this kayak storage rack- haven’t noticed any flexing yet.

The new JDOCK Hybrid is a great rack and much improved over the original. I store two boats, both paddles and my PFD's with no problem. Best system on the market!!!

OK - I use mine for sit-a-top ocean kayaks.. and it hangs in the barn... it is nicely painted and rust hasn't been an issue... I am well within weight ratings, and it flexes a little... but is a great economical way to get these giants of mine up and out of the way in the barn. Works well.

The product worked like it was suppose to. I didn't notice any sagging when I put mine up. I use mine to store 2 kayaks and they both seem to be fine.

Much improved! I have the first version of this system and I liked it. This redesign with the metal frame and the ability to store 2 boats and the gear at the same time is simply the best!

In my opinion the best kayak storage system in the market. Easy to install. All equipment is supplied, you just need to bring your drill or screwdriver. The only criticism is that it isn't as solid as the Malone AutoLoader. This seems quite curious when the J Dock is designed for near constant usage whereas the Autoloader is only used for transportation. I would have expected the JDock to be have been the more robust of the two systems. It's a minor criticism however and I'm perfectly happy with my JDock.

Go up faster than anything others I have tried and while the previous reviewer says they sag, which they do, you just need to loop the strap through as shown and the sagging is gone.

Easy to install and convenient to use, but front retaining arm sags under weight of heavy kayak (within recommended limits).
