Freestanding Ready Rack Overview
The Freestanding Ready Rack offers the classic chrome wire turnout gear rack on its own legs, so a station can set up a permanent PPE storage area anywhere on the floor. Single sided units line a wall; double sided units create an island with gear on both faces, which is the efficient choice for a larger roster.
What Comes With Each Unit
- Heavy-duty zinc chromate finish protected by a clear-coat sealer to help prevent rust
- Two levels of open wire shelving per unit, with a hanging pole that runs the length of the unit
- Full-length grid dividers between sections, plus a 4″ tall divider on the top shelf level and end grids
- Two hanging apparel hooks and one snap-on name plate per section
- Standard section widths of 18″ and 24″ (actual widths can vary slightly with the base and shelf sizes in a run)
- Open back design: no electrician or wiring required

Planning Tips
Allow a dressing aisle in front of each face, keep the run out of direct sunlight, and plan one section per firefighter who keeps gear at the station plus second sets and spares. If you may need to move the racks later, look at the Mobile Ready Rack instead; for wall space, see the New-Tech Wall Mounted Ready Rack.
