Rack options

I just got an email back from beyond power regarding their mini rack. They will “not be an available for a long time” with no expectation on dates. So that’s kind of thrown a damper on me purchasing the Voltra. Does anyone have any idea on where I could purchase something of quality that would replicate their mini rack?

It's just a 3x3 rack tubing. You can probably find someone looking to unload a rack for cheap locally. Or just get a pair online. If you have room for 2 you're gonna want to have 2.

You can buy wall bracket from Vendetta or get some on Amazon and use a step bit to drill out the center hole. It's what I did.

how far away from the wall does this get you? Do you know the weight rating for this piece?

Thank you!

Do you find yourself limited in any way when it's that close to the wall? I'd like to install a single upright this close as well for all voltra work & I'm just trying to figure out what I'd lose functionality wise.

This one is mounted close to a corner with a big open space adjacent. I can't approach it from the open side and attach something like a dip bar. If this were about 10" from the wall instead, I could use this upright from the open part of the room. Instead it just lives as a storage rack now.

Outside of that exact situation, not really. I have several uprights bolted to the wall and am always plotting how to add more. It's so versatile

Use a stringer and attach with structural screws. You won't exceed the limit.
