1. Capacity and length

Measure your usual log length and seasonal volume. Longer racks suit split hardwood; compact holders suit balcony fire bowls with bagged wood.

2. Cover, airflow and base

Prefer open sides with an optional roof cover. Raise wood off soil. Gravel or pavers under the rack reduce mud splash.

3. Steel gauge and assembly

Heavy-duty frames resist bowing when fully loaded. Check bolt quality and whether a cover is included. Assemble on level ground.

4. Safety near fires

Keep racks clear of ember throw from fire pits and heaters. Store only seasoned wood for indoor heaters and follow local fire restrictions.
