How this list is chosen
Every rack or stand in our index whose brand states both its overall width and its overall depth.
The list is not ranked: products with photographs come first, then each group is in name order. We haven't tested these products; every figure comes from a checked product page, linked from each product profile. How we build shortlists.

About this list
Width and depth together give the floor area a rack's frame covers. This list includes every rack or stand in our index whose brand states both, whatever their size.
A footprint isn't the space needed to use the rack. Walking a bar out, placing a bench and loading plates all need room beyond the frame, and height is a separate check.
Before you buy
- Width and depth together give the floor area the frame covers, a useful first check for a small room.
- The rack needs more space than its footprint. Walking a bar out, a bench and loading plates all need room around it.
- Height is a separate check. A full pull-up or overhead press needs headroom above the frame.
- Some racks need bolting to the floor. The brand's fixing instructions are worth reading alongside the footprint.
Notes on the list
- BodyMax CF375 Power Rack
1.01 m wide × 1.36 m deep, the smallest footprint here.
- BodyMax CF470 Heavy Half Power Rack
1.6 m wide × 1.3 m deep, the widest here.
- BodyMax CF475 Power Rack
1.2 m wide × 1.37 m deep.
Couldn't confirm
These may qualify, but a figure the rule needs isn't published or sources disagree. Ask the seller before relying on them.
- BodyMax CF310 Home Squat Stands
Width not published; Depth not published. Two independent stands. BodyMax's 52 × 52 cm figure is not said to be per stand or for the pair, and the spacing is set by the user.
- BodyMax CF315 Squat Stands and Dip Rack
Width not published; Depth not published.
- Gym Gear Elite Series Half Rack
Width not published; Depth not published.
What this list doesn't check
- The footprint covers the frame only. Allow separately for walking the bar out, a bench and plate loading.
- Height, ceiling clearance and floor fixing are separate checks.
- This is a catalogue screen, not a whole-market survey or an installation approval.
