Nice, but should come with both mounting options,
I got this at Sears because it was on sale for I think like 15 bucks… Figured why not.
I have their cabinets (welded ones) and love them.
This is nice for a paper towel holder and to put a couple bottles of whatever on top, in my case canned air and some wd40. The thing I do not like about this is that it ONLY goes into the gear track channel… All of their other products you can mount via studs in the wall or gear track…. Why not do the same with this??? Seems very silly to me.
Pretty much what I did was cut the tabs off with my dremel and then just drilled two 1/4″ holes into the back of it and used dry wall anchors then mounted it beside my shelf and cabinets… Looks good and you would never know that I did it. I just don’t plan on ever using the channel grid system that they have…

|A tidy and slick finish for your Gladiator Gearworks garage,
This 12″ wide caddy is tidy and slick, and has tread plate to boot! It puts a finishing touch on the rest of my Gladiator Garageworks products. It easily holds my clean-up dispenser product in the caddy on the top over the paper towel dispenser. I mounted it on 24″ of Gladiator GearTrack® Channel, next to the garage side door for easy clean-up from chores. I then added two of the end caps for that polished look.

|Looks great, works like a charm…,
Great addition to any GarageWorks garage, or even just as a standalone item. I am always weary of “ear”-style paper towel holders, but this one is no slouch, it holds rolls of heavy shop towels very securely, and even when near empty the rolls won’t twist off until you manually do it. The caddy area on top provides a perfect place for soaps, cleaning supplies, or whatever you feel like throwing up there.
If you have any talent with a circular saw, dremel, or router, you can make your own cleats and avoid paying the exuberant amount of money for the GarageWorks synthetic cleats by picking up some 1×3″ lumber of decent quality, and ripping a 3/8″ wide by 1/4″ deep channel in the top edge of it. Some nice stain, or primed/painted to match your wall, and you have a much nicer setup for a fraction of the cost. This caddy ideally needs two cleats, but the lower one can be shorter, hidden behind the caddy itself. the slot you see in the back of the upper part is the upper cleat, then there is another along the top edge. Using a typical 1×3″ as the upper cleat, and 1/2″ of spacing between it and the lower cleat, it is very easy to hang. Or you can pick up a piece of the GarageWorks channel, cut it as needed, and hang it and save yourself a bit of time.
