The Complete Guide to the 3 Series

Katie McGonigle Katie McGonigle |

The 3 Series isn’t just a rack. It’s your gym’s infrastructure.

If you’ve come here from the product page or you’re considering your first modular system, this guide breaks it down clearly. What the 3 Series is built from, what it enables on your floor, how it scales with your gym, and how to configure it properly.

By the end, you’ll understand exactly what you’re investing in and how to make it work for your facility.

What is the 3 Series?

The 3 Series is a fully modular strength and storage system, configurable, brandable, and built for facilities that are scaling their floor, not just filling it.

Engineered for growth, it's designed to evolve with your space. Whether you're setting up your first serious training floor or expanding an established facility, the 3 Series adapts to what you need now and what you'll need next. It's not one piece of kit. It's the backbone of the floor.

What It’s Built From

Every 3 Series rig and power rack is constructed from 70 × 70 × 3 mm steel, built for strength and long-term use in commercial environments. This isn’t lightweight kit made to look the part. It’s designed to handle the demands of high-traffic facilities, day in, day out.

Key construction details:

  • 70 × 70 × 3 mm steel uprights throughout

  • Textured grip pull-up bars for control under load

  • 4-way numbered hole spacing for fast, consistent setup

  • Height options of 2.2 m or 2.4 m to suit your space

The 4-way numbered hole spacing is one of the details that matters more over time. In a busy gym, it allows attachments to be set quickly and accurately without guesswork, keeping sessions running smoothly and consistently.

The finish

Every 3 Series is finished on an automatic powder coating line, producing a high-quality, durable finish that's built to take punishment and keep looking good. The process is also environmentally friendly, which matters increasingly to facilities with sustainability commitments.

The finish isn't just functional. It's the foundation for the colour and branding options that make the 3 Series look like your gym.

Colours and customisation

The 3 Series is available in 14 standard colours. Custom brand plates and stack guards are also available, so whether you're running a boutique PT studio that needs kit matching your brand palette or a growing gym with a strong identity, the system reflects it.

This is where the 3 Series separates itself from generic commercial kit. You don't have to choose between a system that performs and a system that looks the part. With the 3 Series, you get both.

Modularity: the core of the system

This is where the 3 Series really earns its place. The modular framework allows for unlimited expansion. Add extra bays, integrate new attachments, extend your rig run as your membership grows. Nothing you buy early on gets replaced. It gets built on.

Add or remove racks and bays as required. The system adapts to demand, maximising space efficiency and enhancing training versatility without requiring you to start from scratch every time your facility evolves.

Buy once, build forever. Start with what you need. Add attachments, cable systems, a smith machine, and storage as your system grows.

Storage: a feature, not an afterthought

The 3 Series integrates storage directly into the system so your plates, bands, and accessories have a home without taking up extra floor space.

Integrated storage options include:

  • Utility pegs and band pegs

  • Utility boards

  • Storage shelves

  • Barbell storage

Everything on the system where it belongs. For smaller facilities especially, this is the difference between a floor that feels chaotic and one that feels considered. Your members notice it. Your clients notice it.

Cable Integration

Instead of relying on a standalone cable machine, the 3 Series builds cable functionality directly into the rig. Pulley work becomes part of the system, reducing the footprint on your floor and keeping everything connected within one setup.

For PT studios and group training spaces where square footage is limited, that makes a clear difference. You get the versatility of cable training without sacrificing space or breaking the flow of your floor.

Attachments

The 3 Series is compatible with a wide range of attachments, turning the system into a versatile training hub for all levels. The 4-way numbered hole spacing keeps setup simple and repeatable, so adjustments can be made quickly without slowing sessions down.

Attachments expand your training options without expanding your footprint. Landmine, dip handles, lat pulldown seat, smith machine and more all integrate directly into the uprights you already have, keeping everything connected within one system.

How to Configure Your 3 Series

There’s no single right setup. The 3 Series is built around your space, your programming, and the way your members train. What matters is choosing a configuration that works now and leaves room to grow.

Here’s a practical way to approach it.

Starter or growing gym
Start with a single bay or a short rig run that covers your core strength work. Build in integrated storage from day one to keep the floor clear. Focus on the attachments you’ll use immediately, and position everything with future expansion in mind.

Group training or functional fitness facility
Extend your rack to create multiple training stations. Prioritise pull-up bars, storage, and attachments to support varied programming. At this scale, cable integration adds a lot of value by increasing exercise options without introducing separate machines.

Boutique PT studio or serious home gym
A single or double bay with full storage, custom colour, and branded plates creates a setup that looks as considered as it performs. Everything has a place, and the system works as one.

One system. Every facility.

The 3 Series is a single decision that anchors your strength floor, your storage, and your programming flow. Whether you're configuring your first rack or completing a full rig system, you're building on the same platform.

Your gym's backbone. Built to grow.
