Storage Compartment Storage Rail

So I am new to the travel trailer world-
We have a springdale 26rlssr We are in the process of adding our gear to it and getting it ready for the season.

I was tying to figure out the best way to organize the only outdoor storage compartment and came up with this idea. The rail is 80 inches long, which goes almost the whole length of the compartment.

I bought the rail and all of the hooks at Menards, you can buy a lot of different types of attachments, but I thought this would be great for all of the cords and the hoses.

Thats a pretty neat idea. I might have a couple extra pieces of E-track around here, too.

I like that one too. Might go well with the 3x4 plastic downspout to store weight distribution bars that I plan on putting in too. Good stuff. Thanks.

OP - did you mount the plywood in your storage area or did it come that way?

Mine has the aluminum studs but no plywood sheathing. I've thought about something like this but am worried about how much stuff will bang around. I might put some plywood up and mount the rail to that.

Wow.. It must be nice to have all that room in outdoor storage. That's the only complaint I have with my Outback.
