- Need a better system for for your plate storage in your home gym? We did too, so in this video, we walk you through how to easily and relatively quickly construct a wall-mounted plate storage system.
Some of the materials/equipment used in this project (we purchased all of our materials locally from a hardware store):
Tapcon 1/4 in. x 3-1/4 in. Hex Washer Head Screw Anchor
amzn.to/3Ego62T
(you may want to shop around as you don't need many of these)
Hex Lag Screws, 1/4 inch X 1-1/2 inch
amzn.to/3todCsQ
(you'll need 4 screws/flange)
Pipe Nipple, 1-Inch X 6-Inch, Black
amzn.to/3G4Vc8n
(At 6 inches, you'll be able to cut the threads off one end and still have 4-5 inches left)
1 inch Pipe Flange

I just put up a DIY weight tree. I spaced the pegs equally. I was not happy with the result, because the plate diameter differences made it all look unevenly spaced if that makes sense. I like what you did here where you measured your spacing based on keeping the plates an equal distance apart. That's a much better look. I'll have to modify mine.
If we were going to do ours again, the one thing we would do different is to do all of the spacing with the board on the floor, and we would thus attach all of the flanges and pipes with the board on the floor and then attach the board to the wall. The way we did it worked just fine, but in retrospect, the order in which we did that made it more difficult to attach the flanges and the pipes since the board was already vertical.
What is this? An audio book? This is a video, SHOW!
Looks good!
Thanks!
Iv watched lot of video on this but you are great
Thank you - glad to help!
That kid❤❤❤
We're kind of a fan :-)
Should I remove my baseboard if adding a 2x4x6 to a stud?
Yes, I would recommend that, otherwise the base of the board is going to be angled out.
@@TestifySC they're small baseboards. Come out about 3/4 of an inch. Someone suggested having the board above them. Would that work as well? Or would it be too much weight bearing on it?
The reason we took the approach that we did is that it transfers the weight from the board directly to the floor so that the wall bears none of the weight and only is responsible for keeping the entire assembly from falling outward essentially. If you have your board floating above the baseboard, then your wall is supporting all the weight of your plates, which I probably wouldn’t recommend, and if the board is actually resting on the baseboard, then that baseboard is taking on a large chunk of weight, which I also probably wouldn’t recommend.
With all this in mind, I would recommend removing the baseboard or at least notching out a gap in your baseboard for the board to go directly to the floor.
Another option would be to notch out a space in the board so that it goes around your baseboard but still rests on the floor. With that said, that would take your 2 x 4 (which is only 1.5 inches thick) down to a thickness of .75 inches, which doesn’t make for a lot of support for all the weight from above, so while it’s an option, I would still recommend getting rid of the baseboard.
