Review on Caster Kit for Gladiator GACK04KDSX - Ready to Assemble by Andy Tunes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good design but limited installation configuration

I bought these from Revain's warehouse and they were like new, the packaging had some damage but the product looked immaculate. I mounted them on a ready to assemble modular gearbox (GAGB28KDYG) and just bolted it on. However, it didn't really meet my needs. These rollers are "keyed" where the screw holes on the mounting plate only allow the rollers to be oriented in one specific direction. I should have done more research, but two casters are fixed and two rotate, so you'll need to set them up with a fixed front and a rotating back. My plan for them was to install two swivel casters on the left side of the cabinet (front and back) and two fixed casters on the right side so I could pull the cabinet out from under the gladiator table like a filing cabinet. Unfortunately, for my purposes, the fixed castors are mounted in the wrong direction and cannot be mounted in a different pattern than they are designed for. The alternative mentioned was to purchase screw-in casters (not Garageworks/Gladator brand) that fit into the screw hole of the leveling foot.

Pros
  • Offers portability for versatile organization
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
