Rogue RML-3WC Fold Back Wall Mount Rack

Pros & Cons

What we like …

• The Rogue RML-3WC Folding Squat Rack is likely Rogue’s best selling squat rack (it has almost twice the amount of reviews as any other rack.)
• Featuring a rotating hinge system, the RML-3WC is able to fold away when not in use making it great for a garage gym that still wants to have access for a car to park or a home gym that wants a rack that goes out of the way.
• The 3WC version differs from the RML-3W only in that it is available in various powder coat colors. Everything else is the same.
• The uprights of the rack are made of 3″x3″ 11-gauge steel that is the same as what’s used in Rogue’s highest-end line, the Monster Series of racks.
• Due to the standard sizing of the uprights and a ⅝” hole size, the RML-3WC can use all of the Monster Lite line of accessories as well as those from other companies like Titan Fitness and Rep Fitness that use a similar geometry rack tubing.
• When unfolded, the rack is far enough away from the wall that the weight plates as well as your head won’t feel uncomfortable when squatting or benching.
• A pull-up bar comes standard with the rack which detaches when not in use and adds stability when in use.
• As with all Rogue Squat Racks, this is made entirely in the USA of US-sourced steel.
• Rogue has developed a laser-cut stringer system that makes installing the rack pretty easy and looks much better than a DIY wood stringer.
• The j-cups are rated for 1,000+ LB, and thanks to the weight being pretty close to centered on the upright, there isn’t a ton of stress placed on your wall studs.
• No need to bolt it into the floor, which saves your concrete foundation.

What needs improvement …

• As with most Rogue racks, this isn’t the cheapest folding squat rack available.
• Due to what is required to fold the rack away, we’ve noticed that many people end up leaving the rack unfolded, which defeats the purpose and the extra expense that’s paid for a folding squat rack.
• Although folding away so the rack is out of the way is superior to a stand-alone rack for those with space considerations, a rack that folds up is an easier and quicker mechanism because no disassembly is required. For this reason, we recommend the PRx Performance Profile Rack if you can stomach the extra cost.
