1. What is a Power Rack?

A power rack (aka. power cage, squat cage, or rig) is a piece of gym equipment that lets you perform barbell related exercises in a convenient way.

A power rack usually consists of four rods overhead, three stabilizing rods at the bottom including two adjustable horizontal safety bars or straps. The rods are made of steel or high- quality metal, etc. 

Unlike a smith machine, a power cage allows you to do barbell exercise without any movement restrictions. And exercises performed by power racks are considered more functional than smith machines. Because you will not only push up or pull down the weight, but also control and balance it.

Following are the most important considerations in order to select the best power cage for your commercial gym.

Select the Most Appropriate Type

Always try to choose the most appropriate type of power rack. Currently, there are 2 most popular options to choose from. 

  1. Modular system
  2. Fixed package system

By choosing the first type, you will only need to buy the base rack of a power cage. After that, you can buy attachments as per your gym requirements. This is considered to be a savvy way because you will not spend money on the attachments you don’t want right now. 

The 2nd option is to go with the fixed package system where you will have to bear the included stations and accessories. 

Select the Right Attachments

Selecting the right attachments for your commercial power cage will offer you max possible exercise combinations you will ever need in one simple system. The following are some common power rack attachments and accessories that you should consider for your gym:

  • Smith machine attachment
  • Adjustable monolift attachment
  • Flying pull-up attachment
  • Plate storage attachment
  • Power rack landmine attachment
  • Chin up bars
  • Monkey bars
  • Knee holder for lats
  • Lat pull down
  • J-hooks
  • Cable crossover
  • Lat pull down seat
  • Plate holders
  • Benches
  • Bar holder attachment
  • Safety Bars/Straps
  • Step-up plate attachment 
  • Band pegs
  • Dip handle
  • Dip Attachment
  • Upright extension
  • Resistance band pegs attachment
  • Rope anchor attachment
  • Pull-up Bar
  • Lever Arm Kit

Double-check the Weight Capacity

It is also recommended that you double-check the weight capacity before buying a commercial power cage for your commercial gym. It is better that you pick up a rack that offers 1500 pounds (at least) static rating weight capacity.

Don’t Forget the Safety

Since buying a commercial grade power rack is a big investment you are going to make. Hence, it’s necessary that you must also check its safety. 

The best and high quality power cage come with some great safety features such as:

  • Ability to easily attach/detach the cage to the floor
  • Solid welds and premium materials (box steel)
  • Safety spotter arm attachments
  • High quality and thick gauge steel construction
  • And safety sling attachments

Finishing Is Important as Well

Some gym owners neglect the finishing when buying a new power rack. Remember, it’s also an important thing to consider. Ask yourself what type of finishes you will prefer for your commercial rig. What kind of color, metal, and design will remain suitable for your gym. 

It is to note that some power racks come with powder coated whereas some come with paint on them. 

Without a good finish, a cage will easily batter with time. Mostly athletes and weigh lifters prefer powder-coated cages. Though it is comparatively pricey, it will remain in a solid condition even after heavy use. 

Better finish also makes sure that you will require less maintenance and less repair. 

Check the Product Dimensions

You should also keep the dimensions in mind while buying a new power rack for your gym. Especially when buying a modular one, try to double-check that you keep the rack in that place where you can easily attach additional stations and accessories in the future. 

Check for Convenient Adjustment

The best power cage will offer compatible and convenient fittings from position to position. Pins must safely set up to the structure.

Check the Hole Spacing

Hole spacing is crucial to ensure your desired length of each post. 5 mm is the common size of the hole of a rack’s post. This spacing is a very important feature to keep the J-hook accurately. 

Westside hole spacing is also available in a few rigs. This spacing type is crucial for the ideal positioning of the J-hook and safety bar. 

Keep the Budget in Mind

You should also keep the budget in mind while buying a power rack. There are some low-quality cages available in the market. Though they seem inexpensive during the buy, they will cost you more in the long run. So, it’s wise that you think twice before spending money on these cages. 

One more important thing to note here is that you will need to buy additional attachments later. And so you may go wrong with the calculations. In this case, you must consider what type of attachments and stations you will buy later and calculate the total cost well before.

If possible, check the power rack in wholesale. This way, you can save even more. 

Read the Warranty

It is also very crucial that you check the warranty of this costly gym equipment. Generally, good quality racks come with the best warranties. Cheap racks, on the other hand, don’t offer structural warranty.
