Abstract
An apparatus for securely storing a folding scooter or skateboard. The apparatus can be mounted on a wall in public places or at home. The apparatus supports the folding scooter or skateboard without exerting clamping pressure on the object held. The apparatus has a mounting plate, a locator plate and a gate that are connected together. The mounting plate secures the apparatus to a mounting structure, the locator plate positions the object to be secured and the gate inhibits removal of the object from the apparatus.

A storage device for supporting each of a scooter and a skateboard, each of said scooter and said skateboard comprising at least a pair of spaced apart wheel assemblies and a deck portion at least partially extending between said wheel assemblies, each of said deck portions of said scooter and said skateboard having a foot support surface, said storage device comprising:
- a first portion defining a mounting surface;
- a second portion defining a first surface being non-removable and non-adjustable with respect to said mounting surface, at least a portion of said first surface being spaced from said mounting surface;
- a third portion defining a second surface spaced from said first surface, said first surface and said second surface being substantially parallel to one another;
- and
- wherein said first surface and said second surface define a first space therebetween, said first space being configured to non-frictionally receive said deck portion of said scooter, such that said foot support surface is substantially parallel to said first and second surfaces, and prevent said wheel assemblies of said scooter from passing therethrough, said first surface and said second surface additionally defining a second space therebetween, said second space being configured to non-frictionally receive said deck portion of said skateboard, such that said foot support surface is substantially parallel to said first and second surfaces, and prevent said wheel assemblies of said skateboard from passing therethrough.
