First and foremost I want to thank Jorgen and Shauna at SnapLock for answering all of my questions. Thanks also go out to my wife, Dad and friends (Mike, Anthony, John) that helped with installation this weekend. Words cannot describe how AWESOME this floor is in person. My goodness did it change the look of my entire garage and I am super happy I went with FreeFlow tiles. Everyone that has seen it is blown away, including a friend of mine who put down solid RaceDeck tiles 5 years ago....

Without further ado... Here are before and after pics (I only wish that I took pictures before I moved things back in).

Here are some more pics.... My next project is to get a Bendpak lift. I leaning towards getting one in black, which is of course back ordered.

Thanks guys! It's a night and day difference. I can't believe how easy the installation was.

I appreciate you (Jorgen) posting this on Facebook so others can see what the color combination looks like. I had a hard time finding an example of what I did. I'm super happy with my choice of color and design.

How do you like the Sam's Club cabinets? I was looking at them the other day. The workbench looks pretty darn sturdy.

I'm very happy with them. For the money they can't be beat. I posted pics in another thread a few weeks ago about them.

Slowbra your garage looks great. I'm in the process of researching the flooring options and Racedeck freeflow is at the top of the list. I have about 570 sq ft to cover. Just curious...why did you lay the tiles out on the driveway before installation? I would think it would be easier to just pull out of boxes and put in place on garage floor.

Which is the way I did it. You have to open all the boxes, of course, to find what's where. Either way works fine.

The tiles in the box are shipped in 4-tile squares, so for some designs, you separate the tiles when you pull the 4-square out of the box, but you get really fast at that.

It was recommended by RaceDeck and another gentleman who sells a similar product. The goal was to capture the max expansion to avoid future buckle issues. I am happy to report that even in 90degree sunny weather I don't have any issue in my south facing garage.

I had my dad and sister opening the tile boxes and laying them out in the driveway while me and 3 others assembled my garage. It only took an hour to lay out the tiles and well worth the preventative measure.

Looks great and nice install as well
