Spendy, but useful. First In/First Out racks which mount between wall studs.

A guy with a sheet metal brake could make those pretty easily, and for what they are charging, it would be well worth buying one.

Well, not quite toolless, but I'd have to make it out of plywood if I went DIY on the project.

Keep in mind - you have to have a brake, as well as a way to cut the metal(you can do it with shears, but doing it with a plasma cutter would do a neater job, especially if you make up a plywood pattern to trace), then there's the cost of the metal, and your time..

Your friendly neighborhood HVAC shop would probably make you a good deal if you gave them a long deadline. It's the sort of thing they could do when they have some spare time between jobs.
