The CAP A-Frame Olympic Plate Rack is a compact storage option for lifters who want to keep 2-inch Olympic plates tidy without taking up too much floor space. This 7-post version uses an A-frame layout to separate smaller, medium and larger cast iron plates for quicker access during training.
Built from steel with a powder-coated finish, it is designed for straightforward plate storage in a home gym or light commercial setting. It is worth noting that this model is intended for 2-inch cast iron plates only and is not meant for bumper plates.

For buyers comparing plate trees, the main appeal here is practical organisation in a relatively small footprint. The rack measures 22 x 19 x 37 inches, has a stated 500 lb capacity and includes a rubber base to help reduce scuffs on the floor.
The layout is simple to understand: smaller plates can sit on the inner top shelf, larger plates on the 2-post side and medium plates on the 3-post side. At 21.5 pounds, it should also be easier to position than bulkier storage stands.
- 7-post A-frame design for organised plate storage
- Fits Olympic plates with a 2-inch centre hole
- Steel construction with powder-coated finish
- Rubber base helps protect flooring
- Not suitable for bumper plates
If you mainly use cast iron Olympic plates and want a neater training area, this CAP rack looks like a sensible, space-conscious choice. The design focuses on accessibility and basic floor protection rather than oversized capacity or bumper plate compatibility.
Overall, this is a good fit for home users who need simple plate storage at a reasonable price. If your setup includes bumper plates, you will need to look elsewhere, but for standard 2-inch cast iron plates, it covers the essentials well.
