Gym Racks
Gym Racks for UK Home Gyms
A rack is what lets you squat, bench and overhead press with a loaded barbell safely on your own. This collection covers three types: a budget squat stand, a squat rack with a built-in pull-up bar, and a full power cage with a cable pulley. Each one can be ordered on its own or with weight plates, a barbell and a foldable bench in the same order.
If you're not sure which type you need, start with the comparison below, then read our squat rack vs power rack guide or half rack vs full rack comparison.

Which Rack Type Suits Your Training?
- Squat stand: the cheapest and smallest way to rack a barbell for squats and bench press. A good starting point if you mainly squat and bench and want to keep the cost down.
- Squat rack with pull-up bar: one frame for barbell work and pull-ups, so you don't need a separate pull-up station. Check the 212cm height against your ceiling before ordering.
- Power cage: you lift inside four posts with safety bars on both sides, which is the safest set-up if you train heavy without a spotter. Our cage adds a cable pulley and dip bars, so it also covers pulldowns, rows and dips.
We also stock power racks, half racks and Smith machines as separate collections. A Smith machine runs the bar on a fixed vertical track, which some people prefer for controlled, technique-focused work.
Planning Your Space
Measure three things before you order: ceiling height (especially for racks with a pull-up bar, where you also need headroom to pull up), floor depth (you need room to step back out of the hooks on a squat and to lie on a bench in front of the rack), and width (a 7ft Olympic bar is about 2.1m long, so allow space either side to load plates).
If you train in a garage or spare room with a low ceiling, a squat stand is usually the easiest fit. If you want to know whether a specific rack will fit your room, send us your measurements before ordering and we'll help you check.
FAQs
What is the cheapest squat rack you sell?
The Heavy Duty Squat Rack 2.0 at £79.99 for the rack on its own.
Power rack or half rack — which do I need?
A power rack (cage) surrounds you with four posts and safety bars, so it's the safer choice for heavy solo lifting, but it takes more floor space. A half rack or squat rack is open at the front and fits a smaller room. Our half rack vs full rack guide covers the trade-offs.
How much space does a squat rack need?
Beyond the rack's own footprint, leave room behind it for stepping back on squats, room in front for a bench, and enough ceiling height for the rack and any pull-up bar. Our pull-up squat rack is 212cm high, 190cm long and 100cm wide.
Can I do pull-ups on the rack?
Yes, on the Adjustable Squat Rack with Pull Up Bar and the Multi-Cage Power Rack. See our squat rack with pull-up bar guide for more.
Can I buy a rack with the barbell, weights and bench included?
Yes. Each rack page lets you add weight plates and a foldable bench, and the Squat Rack 2.0 and Multi-Cage also let you add a 6ft or 7ft barbell. You can see the full combinations in our Home Gym Bundles collection, or pair a different bench from Gym Benches & Flooring.
How quickly will my rack be dispatched?
Orders placed before 1pm on a working day are dispatched the same day from UK stock. Delivery cost is shown at checkout.
