How many folding chairs does it hold?

The maker rates it at 800 lb total across two tiers. Chair weight varies, so count by weight: typical metal folding chairs run 8 to 12 lb each, which puts a full load in the range of 60 to 90 chairs depending on the model.

Does it fold for storage?

Yes. The frame folds down, so it can be stowed against a wall or in a closet between events. Expect to spend a few minutes setting it up and collapsing it each time.

Will it fit through a standard door?

The frame is 33.66 in wide, so it clears a 36 in door with little margin. Loaded chairs can stick out past the frame, so check the doorway before rolling a full rack through.

What kind of floor is it suited to?

The caster dolly base rolls on hard, flat surfaces such as concrete, tile and gym floors. Carpet and thresholds add resistance, especially with a heavy load.

Is it only for folding chairs?

No. The flat dolly base and dual rails can carry stacked tables, boxes or other bulky items within the weight limit, though the frame is shaped around chair stacks.

Our take on the Mecale 800-lb Folding Chair Rack Dual-Layer Metal Chair Storage Dolly Cart

The Mecale is a dual-layer metal cart built to hold and move stacks of folding chairs. It carries up to 800 lb across two tiers, stands about 73 inches tall and rolls on a flat dolly base. That makes it a storage-and-transport piece for event venues, churches, schools and rental companies that cycle through chairs every week. Against single-stack chair carts, the second tier doubles how many chairs fit in the same floor space, but the tall frame and 33-inch width need more room to maneuver than a basic dolly.
