How to Get Baseball Gear Off the Floor

By HIDEit Mounts · August 20, 2026 · 2 min read

Baseball and softball gear multiplies fast — gloves, bats, balls, and catcher's gear end up stacked in a corner, wedged in a closet, or scattered across the floor of a kid's room. Wall-mounted storage solves it: a glove mount, bat mount, and ball mount turn a scattered gear pile into a clean display that takes seconds to grab from before practice

Stop bats from tipping over

A bat leaned against a wall or stuffed in a bag falls the second it's bumped, rolls under furniture, or gets kicked across the room. The HIDEit VBat | Vertical Baseball Bat Mount and HIDEit HBat | Horizontal Baseball Bat Mount both lock a single bat in place with a rubber-dipped cradle that protects the barrel from scratches — vertical stands the bat up, horizontal shows it barrel-out. Either way, the bat stays exactly where it's put, not on the floor.

Store more than one bat at a time

One bat is easy — a full bat bag isn't. The HIDEit Triple Bat | Universal Baseball Bat Mount holds a Drop 3 bat, youth bat, and adult bat side by side on a single mount, so a growing bat collection doesn't turn into a pile in the corner. For smaller mini bats and collectibles, the HIDEit Mini Bat | Horizontal Mini Bat Mount displays up to five at once, keeping them upright and visible instead of rolling around a shelf.

Keep the glove off the floor too

The bat isn't the only piece of gear that ends up on the floor. The HIDEit Glove | Universal Baseball Glove Mount holds a glove vertically in a palm-shaped cradle that keeps its shape, fitting youth and adult gloves as well as catcher's mitts — mounted right next to the bats so the whole kit lives in one spot.

Round out the setup with the game ball

A baseball or softball rolls off a shelf the moment it's bumped. The HIDEit Ball-S | Small Ball Wall Mount and HIDEit Ball-M | Softball Wall Mount hold a ball securely on the wall next to the bat and glove mounts — completing a full gear wall with the bats as the centerpiece.

Bats first, then glove and ball — three problem spots solved with one wall. Start with a bat mount, add the rest as the gear pile grows, and the corner stays clear for good.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I keep baseball bats from tipping over?

Wall-mounted storage is the fastest fix — a glove mount, bat mount, and ball mount each hold one piece of gear securely on the wall, clearing the floor, closet, or bag pile where it usually ends up

Can I store more than one bat on the same mount?

Yes. The HIDEit Glove | Universal Baseball Glove Mount fits youth and adult baseball gloves as well as catcher's mitts, using a palm-shaped design that keeps the glove's shape intact.

What's the difference between the vertical and horizontal bat mounts?

The HIDEit VBat | Vertical Baseball Bat Mount displays a bat standing up, while the HIDEit HBat | Horizontal Baseball Bat Mount displays it barrel-out lying flat — both use a rubber-dipped cradle to protect the bat and hold it securely.

What tools do I need to install baseball gear mounts?

Most HIDEit sports mounts install with a screwdriver and the included drywall hardware. No drilling expertise or extra tools are needed beyond what ships in the box.
