Portamate Wood Storage Lumber Rack


Portamate Wood Storage Lumber Rack

The description says these have total load capacity of 600 lbs, but under the specs it says load capacity is 110 lbs. That’s a pretty big difference and is make-or-break information needed to make a buying decision. Based on the reviews and closer inspection of the photos, these are smaller than they initially appeared to me. Take a close look at the dimensional lumber pictured. I believe the 110 lb load rating is probably correct. I do not believe these will hold 600 lbs.

Quality industrial storage equipment holds a significant amount of weight, which is why each shelf holds up to 100 lbs – that’s a 600-pound weight capacity for all six shelves!

Amazon listing says:

WEIGHT CAPACITY OF 600 LBS: Quality industrial storage equipment holds a significant amount of weight, which is why each shelf holds up to 110 lbs – that’s a 600-pound weight capacity for all six shelves! Store all those heavy boards or logs with the assurance that your organizer can handle the weight.

Hey buddy, are you planning on using those upper shelves?

Math! Six (6) shelves @ ~100lbs each = 600 lbs.

Actually if I was drying anything, I’d probably do this arrangement and keep the longer term stuff up high and out of my way.

OTOH, there’s these things called ladders. And having the whole thing higher up gives me more space below for other storage.

That makes sense.

Ladders huh. I’ll need to check these “ladders” out some time.

I have two pair along one 8’ section of wall and I really like them. Had them for about two years now. Quite sturdy.
