That&#8217;s why we decided to write a blog post to help you differentiate between this piece of equipment and to help you choose the one that is perfect for you.<\/p>\n<p>Racks usually have just one squat station. Rigs are modular, which means you can add as many stations as you need. Both can be either wall-mounted or free-standing.<\/p>\n<p>Rigs have column heights of 450 cm, 360 cm, or 275 cm. Racks column height starts at 275 cm or lower.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_74 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-white ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Indice dei contenuti<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69efd5d027b5f\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69efd5d027b5f\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/en\/how-to-choose-the-equipment\/what-is-the-difference-between-rigs-and-racks-rigs-vs-racks-what-is-the-difference\/#Why_are_KingsBoxs_structures_special\" >Why are KingsBox&#8217;s structures special<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/en\/how-to-choose-the-equipment\/what-is-the-difference-between-rigs-and-racks-rigs-vs-racks-what-is-the-difference\/#Racks\" >Racks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/en\/how-to-choose-the-equipment\/what-is-the-difference-between-rigs-and-racks-rigs-vs-racks-what-is-the-difference\/#Rigs\" >Rigs<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_are_KingsBoxs_structures_special\"><\/span>Why are KingsBox&#8217;s structures special<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>All our products are made exclusively from certified materials by qualified and specialized personnel, as required by European regulations.
