hi, can this storage be used outdoor?

I have been using this for 6 years I would not put expensive items in it . Stuff that can take some water this building is not rain proof. I'm getting ready to move it to the inside wall of my carport. I think it will be fine there.

I use it in Garage. You would have to check with Rubbermaid if it can stand up to the weather elements.

I am sure it can under cover as it definitely would NOT be waterproof. Otherwise very study and durable.

I see no reason why it couldn't be used for outside storage as the materials should do fine. You may want to coat the underside with a silocone protectant as the thread which adjusts for the size of the tire is metal and would certainly be prone to rust given a cllimate (near the ocean) or high humidity etc... Also you may wish to think about how you might secure it since someone could easily walk away with your bike (even if you bike was secured to the stand) - so you may want to come up with some way to secure the bike stand to whatever outdoor fixture you were thinking about.

Yes, the slack rack can be used outdoors. I wouldn't keep it outside it's metal and it could rust. Also it's not light so a person may need help to get it out there but it certainly could be used outside.

I would imagine you could have it outside. Very durable bag, just wouldn't want it to get rained on a lot. Mine is outside under a deck enclosure and has endured the Minnesota humidity.

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

While the unit does work well, I would NOT use the item in an outdoor application. It is not designed for un sheltered environments.

It can be used outdoors as long as you protect it from direct exposure to rain, snow, etc. I have used one successfully outdoors mounted under the overhang on a house.

No. I believe it can only be used outside. I've only used it outside and it works great.

Yes, I believe it is sturdy enough to use outdoors. The all plastic design will be weatherproof. The sun might fade the black version. I am retired Army, and have high quality expectations. I looked at many much more costly racks, and this is a value for the money.

Not sure I would mount it outside unless it was enclosed. It would be very easy to disconnect and drain it for winter storage.

I have never stored or left mine outside. It is very well made, very well insulated, and doesn't get stiff or crack when laying in the snow and very cold weather!!! You would have to seal plug connections, but in my opinion, it should serve your purpose!!!

No. This safe is not weather proof and not really secure at all for any type of outdoor installation. I would never recommend you attempt such a thing.This safe is ok, and I'm glad I have it to hide away some medium-value items to keep away from nosy roommates, babysitters, family members, children, etc. This safe would never deter and would barely slow down an actual criminal. Keep your money in a bank account.

Hi Alexander, I would not put this in the outdoors. If you want to use it externally, build an enclosure for it with a glass window. Also I had trouble with the ddns server - it stopped working until today. If you have any luck let me know please. Thanks Tony

Yes it can be mounted outside. I have had 2 of them outside for almost 6 years

Could be used outside in sheltered position but recommend treatment to protect hinges/ areas susceptible to corrosion. We mounted ours inside in shared hallways, which avoids any "unwanted" attention. Good luck.

I'm sure it was not intended to be used outdoors; however, it is all plastic so it could be used outdoors. Just would be harder to keep track of the blocks and not sure how the little booklet on the side would hold up with moisture.

That is up to you. It is not designed for outdoor use or would be covered under the manufacturer's return policy if used that way
