Display Racking

Display Racking – Show Off Your Gear, Don’t Hide It

Your weapons shouldn’t be left on the floor. A good display racking will give you a way to store your gear safely and also integrate it into the atmosphere. Instead of having everything in a lump, or tucked away in a bag, a good rack allows your equipment to stand tall—even when you are not using it. 

At Epic Armoury you can find wall racks for swords, table stands for wands, and freestanding racks that can take a full load of foam weapons. They are easy to move when you need to, sturdy when in use, and designed to make your equipment look as good off the battlefield as it does on.

Why Racking Makes a Difference

A good rack isn’t just about staying tidy (though it helps with that too). It keeps your foam weapons safe from bending or damage, and makes it easy to grab what you need without digging through a pile. Plus, let’s be honest—lining up your gear in a rack just looks cool. Whether it’s in your game room, booth, or event camp, it adds instant atmosphere.

Why It’s Worth Having One

• Keeps swords, axes, and wands safe from bends and scuffs

• Helps you stay organised at home, in shops, or at events

• Makes your setup look intentional and polished

• Easy to mount, move, and adjust as your space changes

Pick the Rack That Fits Your Space

Your best option depends on how and where you’ll use it:

• Wall racks: great for home setups or shops—get weapons off the floor and on display.

• Tabletop stands: ideal for wands and smaller props.

• Freestanding racks: perfect for events where gear needs to move with you.

Think about the overall look, too. Wood racks add a medieval armoury feel. Metal racks look clean and modern—great for busy vendor booths or conventions. If you travel often, go for something lightweight that packs flat and sets up fast.

Smart Features You’ll Notice Right Away

These racks are made specifically for foam weapons, not steel. That means wide slots, stable joints, and plenty of space for padding. Whether you’re showing off one sword or organising a whole faction’s armoury, they’re built to handle it.

What You’ll Appreciate

• Wide slots that won’t pinch or dent foam blades

• Reinforced fittings so nothing wobbles or tilts

• Durable materials that look good and last

• Quick setup—no tools, no fuss

What They’re Made Of (and Why It Matters)

Wood Racks

Wood racks have that classic, rustic feel—perfect for medieval or fantasy-themed spaces. They’re lightweight, easy to hang, and fit naturally into home interiors or market stalls.

Metal Racks

Metal racks are tougher and made for frequent use. They’re great for shops, rental gear, or events where lots of people handle the weapons.

Whichever you choose, all racks have reinforced joints and smooth fittings sized for foam weapons, so you won’t have to force or scrape anything into place.

Make the Most of Your Display

Once you’ve used a rack, it’s hard to go back to boxes and bags. A wall rack can become the centrepiece of your gaming room. A tabletop display adds polish to your merchant stall. And at a LARP event, a portable rack is the difference between chaos and calm.

Why Players Love Them

• Keeps your gear safe, tidy, and ready to go

• Adds instant visual appeal to your space

• Helps teams and vendors stay organised

• Flexible options for different setups and looks

Keep It Looking Good

Display racks don’t need much upkeep, but a little care keeps them looking great for years. Wipe them down once in a while, and keep them dry. Wood racks last longest when kept out of rain and direct sunlight. Metal racks can take a bit more wear but may need an occasional wipe or touch of oil if they get wet.
