When it comes to the Fringe Sport Garage Series Squat Rack's stability without bolting it down, there's a bit of a give-and-take. If you're setting up a home gym and leaning towards not fixing this rack to the floor, here's what you should know.

The rack's uprights are 2x3 inches, which isn't the beefiest out there (like some 3x3 power racks).

So, while it's really versatile with attachments directly from the manufacturer—such as safety arms, landmine attachments, or a pull-up bar—just be aware that some third-party extras might not fit perfectly.

But according to our research, people have successfully added dip bars and weight storage pegs, so it's pretty flexible that way.

One thing that's really nice is the J-cups are coated with plastic UHMW, which helps keep your barbell from getting scratched up.

Here's the important part: if you don't plan to bolt it down, the rack might feel a bit shaky during heavy lifting. Our research suggests that with added weight and accessories, stability can be an issue.

So, if you regularly push big weights, it might be worth it to secure the rack for that extra peace of mind.

Overall, the rack has good room for growth and customization within its 2x3 constraints. Just double-check that any extras you buy are compatible.

And for the best stability during heftier workouts, bolting it down can be a smart move to avoid any wobbling while you're lifting.
