The 9 Best Blueprint Storage Racks

This wiki has been updated 20 times since it was first published in November of 2018. Blueprints take a lot of time to create, and since time is money, that means they are costly to produce. That's why it is important to buy a sturdy storage rack to ensure those plans are always kept safe and sound, while still being easily accessible. All of the models on this list will do just that. We have included wall-hanging, self-standing, and rolling units to suit virtually every need. When users buy our independently chosen editorial recommendations, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

1. Brookside Design Mobile

Pivoting brackets for quick access

2. Adir Corp. Cubicle

The Adir Corp. Cubicle (about $34) is comprised of two brackets that simply hang over partitions, so it can be installed or removed in seconds. Despite this, it can still support up to 120 pounds of documents, which translates to roughly 600 sheets.

Only protrudes 6 in from the wall
Solid steel construction
Budget-friendly price

3. Brookside Design Wall

The Brookside Design Wall (appx. $109) securely bolts into place and holds clamps from 18 to 42 inches in length. Each of its 12 brackets swings left and right, allowing you to look at your documents without having to completely remove them.

Very sturdy even when fully loaded
Conserves floor space for other uses
Can last for years in a busy office

4. Adir Corp. Pivot

The Adir Corp. Pivot (about $80) allows you to quickly find and retrieve your large-format plans, without having to deal with the hassle of picking up every other sheet and moving it out of the way. Plus, it can accommodate a variety of clamp sizes at one time.

Straightforward mounting process
Includes screws and drywall anchors
Comes in three colors

5. Adir Corp. Rolling Stand

Unlike most other models, the Adir Corp. Rolling Stand (about $227) comes bundled with the clamps, of which you can choose between five different sizes ranging from 18 to 42 inches. So while it may seem pricey at first glance, it actually represents a good value.

Great for boardroom presentations
Simple to assemble
Lockable casters

6. Brookside Design VR165

If you need to store a lot of plans and don't mind having to completely remove and unroll them to examining them, the Brookside Design VR165 (about $268) is a suitable option. Its heavy-duty steel frame can support up to 960 pounds of documents.

Compact footprint
Can also be wall mounted
Has a total of 16 five-inch bins

7. Sandusky Buddy 8003

The Sandusky Buddy 8003 (about $104) isn't the best quality, as it can sometimes allows clamps to fall if you aren't careful when moving them, but it is one of the most affordable mobile options that lets you store plans unrolled and viewable.

Width adjusts in six-inch increments
Stable and doesn't wobble
Rubber guides need better adhesive

8. Safco Products 3091

The Safco Products 3091 (appx. $72) is a compact unit that can be pushed into an out of the way corner or kept right alongside your desk for quick access to your rolled up plans. It has a total of 20 compartments and features a sturdy tubular steel frame.

Bottom tray to store small items
Corrosion-resistant chrome grids
Plastic wheels are flimsy

9. Adir Corp. Drop - Lift

The Adir Corp. Drop - Lift (appx. $26) is simply two wall brackets that you install at your desired width. This means they are very affordable, but also results in them only being able to accommodate one size of clamp once bolted into place.

Available in putty or black
Nice sleek aesthetic
Hassle to retrieve plans at the back
