7 Best Folding Squat Racks [Buying Guide]

Photo of author
Last Update

We’ve spent hundreds of hours researching and testing squat racks.

We assessed each one against 14 ‘weighted’ criteria after gathering data on 35 folding squat racks. For example, ‘how easy it is to fold’ has the highest weighting.

You probably won’t fold it away if you find it time-consuming. So you probably should buy a full power rack instead.

After our certified personal trainers, coaches, and engineer tested the top 7, we’ve found the perfect folding squat rack to suit you.

Our testing and selection process

I spoke to numerous friends who have used or have their own folding squat rack. I also tapped into the decades of experience possessed by Strong Home Gym’s personal trainers and team members to gather their opinions. 

Once we had the data input for the 35 folding racks under question we ran it through our criteria tests.

The Power Rack Buying Guide

We gave each data point a “weighting” based on what is more important e.g. there is a heavy weighting on how easy the rack is to fold away. There is less weighting on how good the warranty is.

Folding squat rack criteria (with weightings) (1)

This gave us a score out of 100 for each rack, which helped provide an unbiased data driven choice.

Here are the criteria we used…

Dimensions of the rack

  1. Does it save space?
    • If it is under 30” off the wall it scores a point & under 7” when folded away.
    • Are there depth options i.e. 21” or 41”?
    • Are there different height options to suit your space and budget?

How easy is the rack to fold away?

  1. Ease to fold away
    • If it takes a long time to fold away and uses the pin and hinge system it doesn’t score a point.
    • Currently, PRx holds a patent and is the only folding rack that is effortless to fold away thanks to the gas shocks (you know… like the trunk of your car has!)
    • I found this is the most important factor for a folding rack… so there are 2 points to be had for this!

Folding squat rack quality

  1. Gauge steel 
    • 11 gauge steel (⅛” thick) or better (lower) scores a point.
  2. Size of uprights
    • 3×3” is typically the thickest metal you’ll find on foldable squat racks.
    • 2×3” or thicker scores a point. 
  3. Weight capacity
    • 1,000 lbs+ capacity scores a point.
  4. Can spotter arms be used?
    • One of the main benefits of a squat rack is that you can lift alone. Some racks mounted to the wall do not recommend using spotter arms. 
  5. Stringers & installment
    • If there are stringers that come with the rack it scores a point. 
    • You need to get the right piece of wood and follow the installment instructions if stringers are not provided. This is more fiddly to install.
Gym Equipment Gauge Steel Thickness

Folding squat rack practicality 

  1. 1” or “westside” hole spacing
    • Allows more accurate placing of spotter arms and J-hooks.
    • This is super important if you want to bench press alone. It means you won’t hit the spotter arms on the way down but the arms can still catch the weight if you fail.
  2. Pull up bar included
    • If it comes with a pull up bar it scores a point.
  3. Plate storage
    • If plate storage is possible to add to the rack it scores a point. 
  4. Safe without anchoring/Can it be moved easily
    • It scores a point if it doesn’t have to be bolted to the wall. 
    • 99% of folding racks need to be bolted to the wall. This can be an issue if you don’t have good walls or your floor is uneven (PRx have found a way to attach the rack to a wall even with uneven floors).
    • Only the Force USA MyRack fits this out of any folding racks I found.

Folding squat rack price 

  1. Value
    • If the folding rack is under $600 it scores a point. 
    • The average price of the 35 folding racks we compared is $682.
  2. Warranty
    • Lifetime warranty shows the manufacturers take care of their equipment.

Some other factors could also be considered. Things like if the holes are numbered on the rack so it can help you quickly place your j-hooks or spotter arms.

I don’t think this is a super important factor when buying your rack.

You can easily use a piece of tape to mark the holes you use and I don’t think this should be a purchasing decision.

  • Easy to fold away (PRx patent)
  • Very strong steel used
  • Place spotter arms at ideal height

  • Brand your gym – 9 color options
  • Different pull up bar options

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Not as versatile as a full cage

PRx has patented technology to use gas shocks on folding racks.

They are the only company that has foldable racks that can fold away in seconds like this.

The 3×3″ 11 gauge steel is more than enough for any home gym and makes this a super solid rack.

The cherry on top is the upgraded “Westside” 1″ hole spacing around the bench press area. This makes it possible to position your spotter arms to the perfect height so they can catch the bar if you fail, whilst allowing a full range of movement.

PRx folding racks use patented technology that allows the rack to fold away much quicker than anything else on the market.

This is the main reason it’s our top pick. 

Watch this 2-minute video to see what I mean…

The simple fact is that if your rack doesn’t fold away easily you won’t fold it away! And if you’re buying a folding rack, this should be the main priority. Otherwise, there are cheaper and arguably higher-quality squat stands or power racks you can buy. 

PRx have also upgraded the PRO rack to make it even better since our last review (they even listened to what we had to say about the rack).

Here’s the main upgrade:

  • They changed the 1″ holes to 5/8″ holes
  • This allows “westside” 1″ spacing around the bench press area

There are more and more 5/8″ hole racks on the market these days (including the PR 4000, our overall top pick for power racks).

This means you have a ton of options for attachments you can buy to fit onto this rack.

Just check out our power rack compatibility guide here to see what I mean.

The REP PR-4100 and Rogue R-3W do use Westside hole spacing… and they use 3×3″ 11 gauge steel.

But they are not as easy to fold away!

So you probably won’t… I can’t tell you how many people that have told me they wish they bought a power rack as they never fold their Rogue or REP away.

STOP!!

Now read the last three sentences again.

PRx is a wall gym system that also has a flat fold-away bench or an adjustable bench as an additional option. If you want your home gym to look good and are concerned about saving space then it’s not a bad quality bench at all.

See what I mean in the image below…

PRx Foldable Incline Bench

However, be sure to check out our picks for the best weight benches. There are many cheaper options than PRx’s and they are arguably better quality (but they won’t fold on the wall and look as cool as these benches).

I’d recommend buying the rack with a pull-up bar as pull-ups will likely be part of your training. It’s also a place where you can hang resistance bands to support additional movements.

But you can save around $150 if you already have a pull-up bar or something like a Power Tower.

See the PRx PRO overview and price here.

Cons

  • Expensive

PRx has patented technology to use these spring-assisted folding racks.

The 4 uprights are made from 3×3″ 11 gauge steel. You can tell they are building a full ecosystem on this due to the holes on the 2″ spacing of the holes on the outside of the rack so you can grow with this over time.

It’s expensive but if you want a full rack that can fold away in seconds rather than minutes (honestly this adds up over time) this is the rack for you.

This rack is perfect for you if you value your safety and quality of racks but you also want to use your space for something else like parking a car.

The PRx Profile folding full cage is Prx’s newest model.

And it is the exact product I would build if I was PRx.

Here’s why:

  • 3×3″ 11 gauge steel uprights (the don for a home gym)
  • 5/8″ holes so it has 1″ ‘Westside’ spacing around the bench area (allowing you to position your spotters to the perfect height so you can take the bench press to failure alone safely)
  • 9 color options to match your style
  • 4 uprights in a cage providing even more safety than most folding racks
  • It can be placed on sloped floors

Watch this 60 second video to see how easy it is to fold in and out…

If all of this wasn’t enough PRx recognizes one of the most frustrating things about buying a rack…

Assembly!

So what they’ve done is create a (free) service where you can call them to help assemble the rack…

PRx video consulting for assembly

The way PRx is taking the quality and customer service above and beyond is second to none out there in the gym equipment space at the moment.

So what are the issues?

The one thing I’ve heard people say about this is…

Nah I can just buy the Rogue folding cage for $1,000 less

However, they are still missing the most common mistake I see when people buy a folding rack…

I’ve already said it but I’ll say it again…

If you find it annoying and time consuming to fold it away, then you probably won’t.

So you may as well buy a full power rack (for cheaper & arguably better).

As this is a full power rack you can work out inside the 4 posts. This provides more security when lifting heavy alone.

The down side is you will need to purchase the spotter arms additionally and at the time of writing PRx don’t offer straps or pins- but I’ve been told they are coming very soon.

The RML-39al, and practicality, this rack gets my “if money was no object” pick.

  • Great customer support
  • Overall value

Cons

  • Slow to fold compared to PRx
  • Not a full cage

The 3×3″ 11 gauge steel is more than enough for any home gym and makes this a super solid rack.

And you can’t find a better quality folding rack cheaper than this.

However, the fiddly pins make it slow to fold out and put away. If you don’t mind spending a few minutes folding it out and putting it away every workout and money is your top priority this is the rack for you.

If you are looking for a rack that you can do kipping pull ups or muscle ups, the REP PR-4100 is ideal for you. 

It’s the most affordable option with 3×3” 11 gauge steel and 41” depth from the wall. 

The thicker the steel tubing is for a rack, the less it will wobble. 

The PRx racks only come out 26.75” from the wall, which makes space a bit tight to do swinging pull-ups. But they do offer a variation with “kipping pull-up bars”. However, if this is the main reason you’re buying the rack, the PR-4100 is far more affordable than the PRx version

This rack also comes with 1” Westside hole spacing around the bench press area. This makes adjusting the height of the spotter arms to the ideal height even better than the PRx version. 

The downside compared to the PRx version is that you will need to use the locking pin and hinge system. This makes it slower and harder to fold the rack away and get ready for use. 

You’ll also need to buy plywood yourself from a DIY store to attach the rack to stringers on the wall. Use stringer dimensions of 2” thick, 10” wide, and 56” long for this installation. This video also will help for installation…

Overall, if you don’t mind having to use the locking pin system, this is the rack I would recommend for most people.

  • Fits 80”-91”+ ceiling heights
  • Stringers included
  • Very quick to fold away and use. 
  • 4 100lb gas shocks
  • 2×3” 11 gauge steel

Cons

  • Expensive
  • No westside hole spacing

PRx has patented technology to use gas shocks on folding racks.

They are the only company that has foldable racks that can fold away in seconds like this.

If you get the profile rack without a pull-up bar it can fit in a room with ceilings as low as 80″ high.

PRx’s third mention shows how dominant their racks are in the folding rack market.

The quick folding rack is hard to ignore when it comes to folding racks as no other brand can currently compete thanks to the patented technology. 

But this time I recommend the 72” tall Profile rack without a pull-up bar if you have a low ceiling. If you look on the sales page on the website you will see that they recommend you to have at least a 91” high ceiling. This is to allow for the rack when it’s folded up and back against the wall. 

However, I got in touch with the team at PRx as a customer at [email protected]

Contacting PRx Performance

Not only were they super quick to respond but they went above and beyond what I asked them. They even shared the instructions manual…

PRx Profile Installation Instructions
See the full PRx Profile instructions here.

As you can see, you can fit the rack into a ceiling height of as low as 80” by moving the brackets down the wall on installation.

This does mean the rack will now only be 18” deep from the wall when in use. But Rachael assured me that testing had been done on the modified rack height. It is still just as structurally sound as mounting the rack at the regular height.

The smallest depth out of any folding racks we’ve found.

The 3×3″ 11 gauge steel is more than enough for any home gym and makes this a super solid rack.

If you’re tight on space this is a rack to really consider as it uses clever engineering to allow it to be so small.

The Rogue RML-90SLIM Door Mount is the best folding squat rack I’ve found for really small spaces. 

This foldable squat rack has a depth of 13 inches when in use, and only 5” when folded away. This is far more compact than any other racks I could find. The Sorinex Off-Grid and RML-90SLIM rack have a depth of 13.5” and 14” respectively but they do not fold. The next closest folding rack is the adjusted PRx Profile at 18” deep.

One of the issues with having wall-mounted gym equipment with such a small depth is that it can impede a workout. For example, it’s possible to do an incline bench press with 14” depth but you do feel very tight against the wall. 

But this wall mounted squat rack is over a door! 

That means you can open the door when you work out to give you a lot more depth than a rack attached to a wall. It even makes kipping or muscle-ups possible!

There is something to be aware of before you make the purchase… The max-width of the door and trim is 42.25”. So if you are planning on using this on a weirdly wide door it may not fit. Be sure to measure this first!

Overall, I think this is a really smart wall mounted gym design at a great price. It just looks super cool, is unique, and is practically the best wall mounted squat rack for you if you are tight on space.

All in all, this one’s the best squat rack for small spaces.

Pros

  • Full power rack
  • Westside hole spacing
  • Doesn’t need to be fixed to a wall
  • Easy to pop-pin technology
  • Weight plate storage accessories

Cons

  • 12 gauge steel
  • 20” depth when folded

A great option if you want an affordable power rack but you also want to be able to use your space for something else (like parking a car) when it’s not in use.

The 12 gauge steel isn’t as strong as some other picks on this list but it’s more than enough for most people.

The full cage offers more safety and versatility.

The Force USA MyRack could be the best folding power rack for you if you want a rack that you don’t have to bolt to a wall. 

The 2.4×2.4” 12 gauge steel is not as thick as most other options on this list. But because it is a full power rack it is more than sturdy enough for most people. You can squat 500 lbs on this rack and feel supported, which is more weight than the vast majority of people will lift. 

I prefer a full power rack when I’m working out alone. This is because you can lift weights inside the rack and it just feels more secure. The MyRack allows you to do this, unlike the majority of folding racks. 

It also has “easy-to-pop-pin technology”. Whilst this is not as easy to fold away as the PRx versions, I still think it’s far better than the fiddly pin designs on most other folding racks. 

See the rack in action in the 2-minute video below…

So if you don’t have a ton of space you can fold this rack so the depth is only 20”. It’s nowhere near as compact as the 5” alternatives on this list. But all of the alternatives need to be bolted to the wall. 

This rack works perfectly well without needing to anchor it to anything (although it is possible to bolt it to the floor). So if you’re not very handy or you don’t have appropriate walls to drill into, this could be a great option for you.

Pros

  • The price
  • Strong steel
  • Place spotter arms at ideal height
  • Various heights and depths options

Cons

  • Fiddly to fold away
  • Not a full cage

This rack is for you if money is your top priority.

It does take a while to fold away or pull out due to the locking safety pins. But if that isn’t an issue for you then this rack is still very good quality and one of the cheapest ones you’ll find anywhere.

The Titan T-3 is more than enough for most people and is ideal if you are on a budget. 

After comparing over 20 folding racks on the market this is the cheapest option I could find that is currently available. When you include the spotter arms (an absolute must in my opinion) the 91” height version comes in around $60-$100 cheaper than the REP PR-4100. And the 82” version is $40 cheaper!

The PR-4100 does have 3×3” 11 gauge steel uprights compared to the Titan’s 2×3” 11 gauge steel. But in reality, most people will not notice the difference of this extra 1” wide steel. 

The T-3 also only has a 1-year warranty, whereas every other rack you see on this page has a lifetime warranty. 

Despite these small differences the T-3 rack pretty much offers everything the more expensive alternatives do. It does have a slow-to-change lock and pin hinge system, unlike the quick PRx system

But when you compare this to the PRx “cheap” Murphy rack option you can see how much better Titan is…

Folding systemLock and pinLock and pin

Despite the thicker steel and Westside hole spacing, the T-3 is about $110-$150 cheaper than the Murphy. The Murphy doesn’t use the patented folding rack technology unlike the Profile or PRO versions so there is no point in buying the Murphy rack. 

This explains why some people claim that PRx is expensive. But you simply cannot argue that PRx PRO and Profile are the easiest-to-fold folding racks around!

Folding squat rack buying guide

There are six main things to consider before you buy a folding squat rack:

  1. Size of the rack
  2. How easily it folds away
  3. Quality 
  4. Practicality
  5. Customer service & brand reputation
  6. Price

We looked into all of these factors and broke them down into 14 criteria to assess each of the racks…

Check out how we then assessed them here.


Folding squat rack top tips

You need to be aware if the rack comes with a set of stringers or not. It’s not always necessary to use stringers especially if you are installing it onto a brick wall.

But be sure to check the installation instructions as a poorly installed rack can impact its stability.

Rogue R-3W Folding rack

You can usually find instructions on the company’s website, and there are many great YouTube videos for this now.

It is crucial to make sure you have put any rubber mats or flooring in place before installing your folding rack. It is not easy to adjust the height once your fold down gym rack is installed.

Here’s an example of what you’ll end up with if you don’t put flooring down first, which isn’t ideal…

Best folding squat racks

It’s also wise to check to see if your floor is on a slant as this can mean the feet of the rack are in the air or may not be able to fold out fully. 


Folding squat rack FAQs

Are folding squat racks good?

Yes, there are many good, high-quality folding racks on the market today. Racks such as the PRx PRO fold away in seconds and can hold up to 1,000 lbs of weight.

As long as you mount your rack properly onto a wall following the instructions these racks are very safe, provide the same versatility as regular squat racks, and save space allowing you to use the area for something else when not in use.

Is it hard to install a folding squat rack?

No, it’s not exceedingly hard to install a folding squat rack.

Take the PRx Profile rack as an example – it comes with user-friendly assembly instructions and requires basic tools for a straightforward setup process.

With clear guidance and minimal technical requirements, you can typically install a folding squat rack without significant difficulty.

Is it worth getting a squat rack for my home gym?

Yes, it’s definitely worth getting a squat rack for your home gym.

In our ultimate guide on how to build a home gym for any budget, we mention the squat rack, along with a barbell, some weight plates, and a bench.

Ideally, you want your home gym to have a squat rack with a pull up bar, such as our top pick – the PRx PRO.

Is it OK to bench in a squat rack?

It is a common practice to bench in a squat rack.

Combining a bench with a squat rack is one of the few options if you want to use a heavily loaded barbell for your bench-related exercises.

Squat rack manufacturers such as PRx are well aware of this, so they offer a flat fold-away bench or an adjustable bench to complement their PRx PRO.

Can I add attachments to my folding squat rack?

Yes, you can add attachments to your folding squat rack.

Check the product specifications to ensure compatibility, and choose attachments that align with your fitness goals, such as dip bars, pull-up bars, or weight plate holders.

If you need more guidance on this, check out our extensive power rack attachments compatibility mega guide.

Adding attachments can enhance the versatility of your folding squat rack for a more comprehensive workout experience.


The bottom line

Folding squat racks are a great way to save space. They can transform your home gym space into a completely separate space when you are not working out. 

The PRx PRO rack is our top pick purely for the fact that it uses patented technology to fold the rack away in seconds.

Every other folding rack uses the slower-to-use pins and hinges. It is more pricey than some other options out there.

But if you want to fold your rack away every time you use it, it’s 100% worth it.
