Things to consider when choosing free weight storage
Safety: When selecting a free-weight storage rack, ensure it securely stores the chosen free weights. Look for gym storage racks featuring rubber catchers, end plates, and secure designs that will keep equipment in place when not in use. The last thing a gym needs is to run an injury risk from loose equipment lying around the gym floor.
Protection: Gym storage should feature protective components to prevent damage to equipment and the gym floor. Look for rubber end caps on the feet that minimise damage to gym flooring and catchers that properly support equipment reducing the likelihood of scratches, marks, and dents. Minimising wear and tear is key, especially for equipment in high-use facilities.
Rack Design: It may seem simple but consider how many shelves will be required. Will two tiers be sufficient or would a 3 tier option be a better fit? It might be that a more vertical design could help save on space which would be great for dumbbells but a wall storage rack might be a better idea for barbells.
