POWER RACK 4 BARBELL STORAGE

Force 6 Fitness’s Power Rack 4 Barbell Storage — sold under the name “The SOLUTION” — is a single-bolt power rack attachment that holds up to four barbells overhead, keeping cambered, safety squat, and standard bars off the floor without adding footprint outside the rack. It’s a double-layered 3/16” steel bracket sold as a pair, with plastic (UHMW) inserts to protect barbell finish and mounting hardware included. It’s a direct iteration on Darko Lifting’s Double Decker Barbell Anchor design, at a lower price point. Independent GymRadar reviewers rate it around 3.9/5: several note it does the job for the price, but recurring complaints are that the mount needs the bolt cranked down tight to stop wobble, the UHMW liner and mounting hardware feel cheaper than the Darko original, and the innermost of the four barbell slots is difficult to reach.

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.

Force 6’s Power Rack 4 Barbell Storage does what it promises — four barbells stored overhead in a single bolt-on bracket — and independent GymRadar reviewers call it a workable budget alternative to Darko Lifting’s Double Decker Barbell Anchor, the design it visibly iterates on. Functionality and value are the strongest dimensions: it’s inexpensive, keeps storage inside the rack’s footprint, and mounts with a single bolt. Build quality is the weakest — multiple reviewers describe the UHMW liner and mounting hardware as feeling cheaper than the Darko original, and note the bracket needs its bolt cranked down tight to stop wobble.

  • +Functionality: stores up to 4 barbells overhead without adding footprint outside the rack (GymRadar)
  • +Value: inexpensive relative to the design it iterates on — "the price was right" (GymRadar)
  • +Versatility: fits cambered, safety squat, and standard barbells; available in 1" or 5/8" hole sizes and 4 colors (manufacturer)
  • +Functionality: single-bolt installation, no disassembly of the rack required (manufacturer)
  • Build quality: UHMW liner and mounting hardware feel cheaper than the Darko original it iterates on — "threads and nut looking cheap and rough" (GymRadar)
  • Functionality: needs the mounting bolt cranked down tight or the bracket wobbles; the innermost of the 4 barbell slots is hard to reach (GymRadar)
  • Value: reviewers who owned both say the Darko original mounts tighter and feels more solid (GymRadar)
  • Durability: no long-term wear data yet — independent reviews only cover a few months of use (thin coverage)
