Overview
The Rogue RML-3WC Custom Color Fold Back Rack is the ultimate space-saving power rack, combining the retractable convenience of the Monster Lite series with the ability to personalize your gym's aesthetic. Engineered for garage gyms and tight training spaces, this rack features a unique hinge-and-pin system that allows it to fold flat against the wall when not in use. Built from massive 3x3" 11-gauge steel, it offers the "rock-solid" stability of a standard power rack while occupying less than 5” of depth when stowed.

Performance Benefits
Maximum Space Efficiency: When stowed, the rack takes up less than 5" of space from the wall, allowing you to park a car or use the floor for other activities.
Sturdy Beyond Its Class: Unlike lighter fold-back setups, the 11-gauge steel and 3x3" profile provide a commercial-grade feel that does not budge during heavy squats or pull-ups.
Effortless Transitions: The detent pin system allows the rack to be locked into the open or closed position in seconds. The pull-up bar is also "quick-attach," utilizing hitchpins and a lanyard for safety.
Personalized Aesthetic: The Custom Color edition allows you to match your rack to your team colors or personal gym theme. The crossmembers, hinges, and pull-up bar retain the Rogue Signature textured black finish for a high-contrast look.
Sloped Floor Friendly: The design allows forfoundation clearance and can accommodate slightly unlevel garage floors by adjusting the mounting height of the swing arms.
Maintenance and Care
Stringer Recommendation: Rogue highly recommends installing this rack with a pair of Monster Lite Stringers to ensure it is securely mounted to wall studs.
Wall Integrity: Regularly check the lag screws and wall mounting points for signs of movement or stress, especially if using safety spotter arms (which apply significant leverage to the wall).
Detent Pin Inspection: Ensure the 5/8" detent pins are fully seated before each use to lock the swing arms into the working position.
Hinge Lubrication: Apply a light coat of dry silicone lubricant to the hinge points annually to maintain smooth folding and unfolding.
Cleaning: Wipe the powder-coated uprights with mild soap and water. For the "Satin Clear" finish, use only a soft, dry cloth to preserve its transparent aesthetic.
Warranty Information
Frame and Welds: Guaranteed by Rogue for Life.
Moving Parts: Standard Rogue limited warranties apply to pins and hinges.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which depth should I choose?
A: The 21.5" depth is the most popular as it allows the rack to fold flush against the wall. Choose the 41.5" depth only if you need extra clearance for gymnastic movements or dynamic pull-ups.
Q: Can I use this with an 8-foot ceiling?
A: Yes. The total height is 90.375", fitting easily under standard 96" (8ft) ceilings while still providing room for the pull-up bar.
Q: Are safety spotter arms included?
A: No, safety spotter arms are sold separately. Note: Rogue recommends having a contractor verify your wall type before using spotter arms, as they transfer significant stress to the wall.
Q: Can I mount this to metal studs?
A: Rogue does not recommend mounting to metal studs or drywall without additional structural support or a stringer.
