Adjustable Bench 2.0 Vertical Storage Bracket

This bracket is a paid add-on for the (now discontinued) Rogue Adjustable Bench 2.0 that lets the bench stand upright on its end for storage instead of lying flat, reclaiming floor space in a home gym. It’s a 3/16” thick laser-cut and formed steel bracket with a laser-cut Rogue “R” logo and a UHMW pad at the contact point, so the bench’s frame doesn’t rest directly on the floor when stored vertically. Installation is user-assembled with common hand tools (5/32” allen key, 7/16” wrench, 3/4” socket or wrench); Adjustable Bench units bought before 2015 may need a mounting hole drilled first, per Rogue’s own instructions.

Independent coverage of the bracket itself is thin – reviews of the bench mention it only in passing as a nice-to-have that should have come standard – but r/homegym threads consistently recommend it, with owners calling it “a game changer” and a space-saver worth adding. That same community feedback is exactly what led Rogue to build vertical storage into the Adjustable Bench 3.0 as a standard feature, so this bracket is now mainly relevant to owners of the older 2.0 who want the same convenience without upgrading the whole bench.

What is a Storage?

What gym storage is

Storage keeps a home gym safe, tidy, and usable: weight-plate trees and pegs, barbell holders (vertical or horizontal), dumbbell and kettlebell shelves, and wall or rack-mounted organizers. Loose plates and bars on the floor are a trip-and-damage hazard; storage reclaims space and protects your equipment.

What to consider

Match storage to what you own (plate diameter, number of bars, dumbbell count) and your space — wall-mounted units and rack-hung storage save floor area, while free-standing trees move easily. Check the weight capacity and, for wall units, that you can anchor into studs.

Sources on this specific accessory are thin — mostly the manufacturer listing, a couple of passing mentions inside full bench reviews, and a handful of Reddit endorsements — but the signal is consistent: this bracket does its one job well, letting a Rogue Adjustable Bench 2.0 stand upright on a UHMW-padded steel bracket instead of eating floor space. Functionality and build quality check out on the evidence available; value is the softer spot, since Rogue charged extra for a feature it later made standard on the Adjustable Bench 3.0, and pricing has crept up over the years. With no long-term wear reports and relevance limited to owners of the now-discontinued 2.0 frame, treat this as a solid but narrowly-scoped accessory rather than a must-have upgrade.

  • +Functionality: a 3/16-inch laser-cut steel bracket lets a Rogue Adjustable Bench 2.0 stand upright for storage, freeing floor space (Rogue product page)
  • +Build quality: solid laser-cut steel construction with a UHMW pad that keeps the metal edge off the floor (Rogue product page)
  • +Value: r/homegym owners call it 'a game changer' and recommend budgeting for it before even buying the bench (r/homegym)
  • +Versatility: works as a retrofit for older Adjustable Bench 2.0 units, though pre-2015 benches need a mounting hole drilled first (Rogue product page)
  • Value: should arguably have been included standard — Rogue itself seemed to agree, making vertical storage built-in on the successor Adjustable Bench 3.0 (Garage Gym Lab, r/homegym)
  • Versatility: only fits the discontinued Adjustable Bench 2.0; cross-brand and cross-model fit (for example, onto REP benches) is unconfirmed in the community (r/homegym)
  • Durability: no long-term wear data surfaced in available sources — a thin evidence base for this accessory specifically
