I have a HF dolly to store the 4 arms. They are heavy as sin. The posts roll very easily and easy put in place.
The only preparation for the garage (besides placement) is drilling the holes. Documentation is good and thorough. Tech support is good.
Drilling ten 7/8 inch holes was a pain. Had a medium sized hammer/drill but it died half way through the 10 holes. Bought a heavy duty Bosch hammer/drill and it went through the concrete like butter.
They provide screw on caps to protect the holes from debris when not in use.

Do the posts have to be store with the arms off, or could you leave them on if you had the space?
That's cool that they give you cover caps for the holes.
