Frequently asked questions: answers to some common queries about AeroRail®
What’s the difference between the AeroRail® styles – classic, footprint and dog-bone editions?
Essentially there’s no difference other than the aesthetics of the styles. Each metre long section has 48 hanging slots. They’re all designed and made to offer the same functionality and practicality. Larger hooks and hangers will work just as well on the footprint and dog-bone editions as on the classic model.
How easy is AeroRail® to fit?
We’ve designed AeroRail® to be as easy as possible for you to DIY install. We provide detailed installation instructions with every order. We also have experience of fitting lots of AeroRail® in different locations and to different surfaces (e.g. solid walls, plasterboard and tiled walls/ceilings). So if you’re struggling, or just need further information or support, please get in touch.

What can I use AeroRail® for?
AeroRail® can be fitted vertically or horizontally at any and all angles. It works on sloping ceilings and walls as well as regular ceiling and walls. We have seen AeroRail® used for a whole range of storage applications. These range from bike storage, to heavy pots & pans., to clothing, to luggage and suitcases, to campervans and motorhomes. AeroRail® works really well for just about anything that goes on a hook or hanger. It’s suitable for loads up to 50kg where your AeroRail® is fitted into structural timber and the load is evenly distributed across the entire length of AeroRail®.
Do you provide an installation service?
No, we don’t offer an installation service. If you need help, we recommend contacting your own local trusted tradesperson for further assistance or advice. If you don’t have someone in mind already, you may wish to use your local Council’s trusted trader, or Which? Trusted Trader, scheme to find a reliable tradesperson.
What about the quality of AeroRail®?
AeroRail® is made in Great Britain from high-quality, rust-free stainless steel tube. Because we have full oversight over our supply and manufacturing chain, we’re able to guarantee the quality of AeroRail® and offer a 2 year, no quibble warranty across our entire AeroRail® range.
Every section of AeroRail® that we send out goes through the same meticulous checking, testing and finishing process. This includes thoroughly deburring the tube that AeroRail® is manufactured from before it’s carefully checked and then hand-polished – inside and out – by us.
