GYM RACKS & RIGS

Our Range of Rigs & Gym Racks for Sale

As functional fitness experts, we understand that safety and versatility are essential for any good rack or rig setup. That’s why we offer a variety of heavy-duty:

• Gym rigs

• Power cages

• Squat stands & squat racks 

Built strong for maximum durability, this range features 11-gauge steel and 75 x 75mm steel uprights engineered to support all users. Whether you're a fitness first-timer or an elite athlete kitting out your commercial or home gym setup, we stock the perfect foundation for serious lifting.

Here’s what to expect from our high-quality range of racks and power equipment.

Power Racks & Rigging

Standard power racks (also known as power cages) are popular for their multi-functionality, allowing you to train a wide range of muscle groups with limitless progression. Common exercises include:

• Squats

• Deadlifts

• Pull-ups 

• Tricep dips

• Bench and shoulder presses

Power racks provide the support needed for a safe workout, even without a spotter present. With a high weight capacity of 450 kg, this range offers more than enough stability to push your limits without compromising your safety.

We stock both commercial-grade power racks and home gym racks, as well as convenient combo deals like our rack, barbell and weight set. Available in neon colours or with black powder coating, our exclusive modular racking offers endless customisation possibilities. 

Build your own rack or add additional bays to create a free-standing rig setup. These options are great for meeting your unique heavy-lifting needs and laying the foundation for levelling up your strength training. 

Short & Half-Size Racks

Need a robust full-gym rack but have limited space to work with? A short rack or half rack is the perfect solution.

Similar to power racks, these compact models come with four steel uprights. The main difference is that they typically feature narrower or shorter dimensions to fit into smaller spaces. This less expensive, space-saving design frees up floor space, offering greater flexibility in smaller settings like a garage gym.

Squat Racks

Gain the stability and safety you need to maximise your workouts with heavy-duty squat racks from Factory Weights. Our squat racks come with two steel uprights that are either linked together or independently bolted to the ground.

Generally, a commercial or home squat rack offers greater mobility and a more compact design than a power rack. Squat racks are also extremely versatile, and many models can handle a load of up to 450kg. 

Beyond squats, you can also use these racks to perform several other exercises, including: 

• Bench presses 

• Rows 

• Shoulder shrugs 

Instead of replacing your core fitness equipment, choose gear that grows with your gains. Our standardised 75 mm x 75 mm steel uprights offer total versatility. So if you upgrade to a power cage later, your existing parts will be fully compatible. 

Wall Racks & Rigging

Wall racks offer the same industrial strength as a full power cage but with a much smaller footprint. By anchoring directly to the wall, you save valuable floor space without limiting heavy lifting workouts. Their compact profile makes them an essential addition to home setups and busy PT studios looking to maximise every square metre. 

Our gym wall racks are constructed from two uprights bolted to the wall and, in some cases, to the floor. This modular range allows for easy adaptation and expansion, including the option to create a wall-mounted rig setup. 

If your gym’s size is limited, our foldable wall racks provide the ultimate space-saving design. These models offer fixed-rack stability while easily folding away for total space optimisation.

Gym Accessories

We stock a wide range of strength-training accessories compatible with our 75 mm x 75 mm uprights. Whether you have a commercial power cage or a wall-mounted squat rack, these racking accessories provide the essential versatility your strength setup needs:

• Landmines: A popular power rack attachment offering 360-degree rotation for squats, rows and core training.

• Spotter arms: Designed to safely catch the barbell if you are exercising without a spotter and fail on a rep.

• Dip bars: Used for training triceps, chest and shoulders during dip exercises.

• J-cups: Also known as J-hooks, these essential attachments safely hold your barbell between sets and are included with every one-ton rack purchase.

• Add-on storage racks: Perfect for efficient weight plate storing and compatible with all our power, wall-mounted and half-rack options.

• Flip-down safety bars: These adjustable safety bars use 11-gauge steel and industrial-strength plastic liners as a heavy-duty fail-safe that won't chew up your barbell.

Complete your strength training setup with our range of rigging, racks and one-ton rack attachments, backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Enjoy a lifetime guarantee on all 75 mm x 75 mm uprights in our collection. 

FAQs About Our Rigs & Racks

Read our answers to some common questions about our gym rigs and power racks for sale. 

What is the difference between a gym rig & a rack?

The main distinction lies in the number of workout bays and the number of users they can accommodate.

• Gym equipment like power racks features a single workout bay for one lifter. 

• Rigs are modular systems with multiple bays, making them the standard for PT studios or commercial gyms where several people train simultaneously.

Should I use a gym rack for home workouts?

If you have the floor space, a dedicated gym rack is the superior foundation for heavy lifting at home. As multi-functional fitness equipment, these units support all your basic compound lifts, including:

• Squats

• Deadlifts 

• Pull-ups 

While squat stands are the most compact option, a full rack offers a built-in pull-up bar and greater stability for heavy bench presses. Both are modular, allowing you to add attachments as your goals evolve. 

Are power racks better than multi gyms? 

Unlike fixed-path multi gyms, a power rack allows for natural, free-weight movement. This is essential for building functional muscle during heavy squats and rack pulls. 

While a full power cage is a larger investment than basic fitness equipment, the ability to perform every major compound lift offers superior long-term value.

Are power cages worth it?

Yes, especially if you train solo. Power cages are top-of-the-line for their safety features and versatility. They’re excellent for strength training, particularly for compound exercises and high-intensity workouts, including: 

• Powerlifting sets

• CrossFit WODs

• Weightlifting drills

• Bodybuilding splits

Although power cages require more floor space than basic racks, their fail-safe design makes them the most critical investment for serious lifting setups.
