reliahom Broom Holder Wall Mount Mop and Broom Hanger Wall Mounted Garage Storage Rack Kitchen Garden Tool Organizer

Why I put this wall-mounted organizer to work

I needed to reclaim a corner of my garage and stop tripping over mops and long-handled tools. The Reliahom holder promised a compact rail with four grippers and five hooks in a single, silver metal package. After a few weeks of daily use across garage and laundry room chores, it’s become one of those quiet upgrades that keeps things tidy without asking for attention.

Build and design

This is a metal-forward design: a rigid metal base rail, stainless-steel grippers, and metal hooks. The silver finish leans utilitarian rather than decorative, but it looks clean and blends in with most light-colored walls and utility spaces. Each of the four grippers uses a spring-loaded, non-slip insert that clamps onto a handle; the five hooks sit on the same rail for items that don’t belong in a gripper.

The format here is “4R5H” (four racks/grippers, five hooks). In practice, that’s a sweet spot for a small apartment utility closet or a one-car garage: enough capacity to get brooms, a mop, a duster, and a scrub brush off the floor while still leaving hooks for a dustpan, extension cord, and hand brush. The rail is low profile and doesn’t jut out too far, so you can mount it behind a door without the door catching.

The clever part is the adjustability. The grippers and hooks can be removed and repositioned along the rail, so you can spread them out for wide tools or pack them tighter for skinny handles. I reconfigured mine twice—once for garden season when I needed to slot in a rake, and again when winter hit and the snow brush took its spot.

Installation: straightforward with a couple of tips

Installation was simple and took about 15 minutes with a drill, a level, and a screwdriver. My unit arrived with mounting hardware; I used the included screws for a stud mount. A few quick tips based on my install:

• If you can, hit at least one wall stud. The rail’s metal base is strong, and anchoring to a stud makes the whole assembly feel rock-solid.
• On drywall without studs, use quality anchors (the included ones worked, but I prefer metal self-drilling anchors for heavy or frequent use).
• Level matters. Because the grippers rely on gravity to hold handles straight, a slightly off-level mount is more noticeable here than with a simple hook strip.
• Plan your layout before drilling. Set the grippers and hooks in the positions you want, then hold the rail in place and mock up the tool spacing. It saves you from making extra holes later.

Once mounted, rearranging grippers and hooks is tool-free and quick. They slide off, pop back on, and seat firmly on the rail without wobble.

Day-to-day performance

The one-handed push-in action works as advertised. I tested a mix of handles: smooth fiberglass broom handles, a wooden mop handle, an aluminum telescoping duster, and a rubber-coated scrub brush handle. The non-slip inserts bite confidently without chewing up surfaces. Even the slick fiberglass handled stayed put when I tugged downward and sideways.

I expected at least one “gravity drop” during the first week—usually a slick broom handle eventually slides down and taps the floor—but that didn’t happen. The springs have enough tension to hold common cleaning tools, and the friction material is grippy without being gummy. Removal is just as easy: a short upward lift releases the tension, and the tool comes free with one hand.

The hooks are more useful than I anticipated. I keep a dustpan, a coil of paracord, a scrub brush, and a small tote bag of clothespins on them. They’re also a good fail-safe for tools that don’t fit the grippers well—think a thin wire-handled squeegee or a broad-handled shop brush.

Adjustability and use cases

Being able to rearrange the set is the difference between a generic strip of hooks and a proper organizer. I’ve used it three ways:

• Garage: broom, push broom, shop mop, and squeegee in the grippers; garden trowel, gloves, extension cord, and dustpan on hooks.
• Laundry room: broom, mop, duster, and a lint roller pole in the grippers; mesh bag of clothespins and stain brushes on hooks.
• Patio closet: handled scrub brush and squeegee in grippers; watering can, sprayer, and hose nozzle on hooks.

Because the rail is metal and the hardware is stainless steel, I didn’t worry about splashes or humidity. It’s an easy fit for kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, or a shed—as long as you have a solid mounting surface.

Durability and maintenance

After weeks in a humid garage, I saw no rust or discoloration on the rail, grippers, or hooks. The grip inserts retained their spring and didn’t polish smooth. I deliberately hung a damp mop to see if water would affect the clamps; no slipping, and the metal hardware didn’t show any immediate reaction.

As with any wall-mounted organizer, give the screws a quick check after the first week. Settling can happen as the rail conforms to the wall. I tightened two screws a quarter-turn and haven’t touched them since. Wiping dust off the grippers keeps them grabbing cleanly; otherwise, there’s no maintenance to speak of.

I didn’t push this as a storage solution for heavy garden implements like a full steel shovel or a pickaxe. While the rail is sturdy, grippers are designed for cylindrical handles with moderate weight. I’ve hung a light garden rake in a gripper without issue, but for heavy, awkward tools, the hooks—or a dedicated wall bracket—are the safer choice.

Limitations and small quirks

• Drilling required. This is not renter-friendly unless you’re comfortable patching holes later. Adhesive-only alternatives exist, but they won’t match this rail’s stability.
• Handle diameter matters. Very thick foam grips can be cumbersome to seat; very thin wire handles may not get enough purchase in a gripper. In both cases, the hooks provide a workaround.
• Anchor quality. If you’re mounting into drywall only, consider upgrading the anchors if you plan to load all four grippers and all five hooks heavily.
• Aesthetics are utilitarian. The silver finish looks tidy, not decorative. That’s perfect for garages and utility spaces, less so if you want a showpiece in an open kitchen.

None of these were deal-breakers in my use, but they’re worth noting so you choose the right spot and set expectations.

How it compares

Compared with plastic-bodied organizers I’ve used, this metal rail feels noticeably more rigid when fully loaded. The grippers’ spring tension is stronger and the inserts have better bite, which shows up with slick handles. Versus a line of individual wall hooks, this consolidates storage and lets you fine-tune spacing as your tool mix changes. The trade-off is that you get a single fixed rail length; if you outgrow it, you’ll either add a second rail or prune what you store there.

The bottom line

The Reliahom holder does exactly what a good wall organizer should: it turns a pile of awkward, tippy tools into a neat, accessible row—no floor space sacrificed, no handle slippage. The metal construction inspires confidence, the grippers hold a variety of common handle materials, and the movable hooks and racks make it easy to reconfigure as your needs change. Installation is uncomplicated if you have a drill and a level, and once it’s up, you can forget about it.

Recommendation: I recommend this for anyone who wants a sturdy, low-maintenance way to organize brooms, mops, and similar tools in a garage, laundry room, or utility space. It’s especially worthwhile if you’ve been burned by flimsy plastic holders or adhesive strips. If you’re renting and can’t drill—or you primarily need to hang very heavy garden tools—you might look for a different solution. For most household setups, though, this rail strikes the right balance of build quality, capacity, and everyday ease of use.
