Delivery options
Your item’s shipping method and price are confirmed in the shipping calculator and at checkout. Here is what each delivery path means.
Items weighing 149 lb or less ship by ground parcel rather than freight.
Your equipment is palletized and protected. The freight carrier schedules delivery, then uses a liftgate to lower it to your curb or driveway. Moving it inside and unpacking it are up to you.
When selected and available for your address, the delivery team brings the equipment into the room, assembles and tests it, then removes the packaging.
For commercial builds and multi-pallet orders, a dedicated trailer keeps the full order together in one delivery. We confirm the unloading plan before the truck ships.
Change your mind within 30 days of delivery and you can return the machine or exchange it for a different size, color or configuration.
Return shipping is the customer's responsibility and a 15% restocking fee applies to preference returns and exchanges. Freight items must go back packaged to the same standard they arrived in. We will tell you exactly what that means before anything is collected.
Anything that arrives damaged or fails under warranty is handled separately and carries no restocking fee. Full terms are in our Returns, Exchange & Refund Policy.
Coverage and accessories have to go on the same booking as the machine. Add them here and they travel together.

Quick answer: The BUILT Strength Foundation Series Smith Machine is a new commercial smith machine with a counterbalanced bar on a vertical guided track, integrated bar catches for solo training, and 8 weight storage horns. The 542 lb frame measures 49 in. by 87 in. by 93 in., so check ceiling height before you order.
The BUILT Strength Foundation Series Smith Machine uses a counterbalanced guided barbell mechanism on a vertical track - the counterbalance reduces the effective bar weight for lighter loading options and warm-up work, while the guided path maintains the bar in a fixed vertical plane throughout every exercise. This allows athletes to train squats, presses, rows, and overhead movements to near-failure without a spotter, and to focus entirely on load rather than bar path management.
Eight integrated weight horns keep plates organized and on the unit, and integrated bar catches allow secure, convenient racking at any point during a set. 542 lb of heavy-duty reinforced steel keeps the machine planted and stable under heavy compound loading. A 49" × 87" footprint serves as a capable centerpiece for commercial gym floors and serious home setups. New.

Buyer questions
Squats, lunges, flat and incline bench press, overhead press, bent-over rows, shrugs, and calf raises, all on a fixed bar path you can rack at any point.
A straight smith machine covers guided presses and squats. If you also want cable work in one footprint, look at an all-in-one. See best smith machine for a home gym.
It stands 93 in. tall. A standard 8 ft (96 in.) ceiling leaves only about 3 in. of clearance, so measure your ceiling, beams, and lights before you order.
It ships as commercial freight to the lower 48 under the delivery level you pick at checkout (curbside or inside delivery and assembly). Review delivery options and the shipping and installation checklist.
