Built Strong for Every Season

Stacking firewood properly is the key to keeping it dry, seasoned, and ready to use when you need it most. At Lipkvich Fabrication, we design and build heavy-duty firewood racks that are built to handle Maine winters and the constant cycle of chopping, hauling, and burning wood.

Unlike flimsy big-box store racks, our fabricated firewood holders are designed for strength, longevity, and ease of use. Whether you’re heating your home with a wood stove, stocking an outdoor fire pit, or managing commercial wood supply, our racks provide a reliable storage solution.

Why Choose a Fabricated Firewood Rack?

• Durability — Made from steel or aluminum, our racks won’t collapse, rot, or splinter like wooden racks.

• Weather Resistance — With powder coating, galvanization, or natural corrosion-resistant finishes, racks hold up in rain, snow, and ice.

• Strength — Engineered to support heavy loads without bowing or warping.

• Organization — Keeps your woodpile neat, elevated, and off the ground.

• Pest Control — Elevation reduces rot and keeps insects from nesting in damp wood.

• Customization — Size, capacity, and style tailored to your space and firewood needs.

Benefits of Proper Firewood Storage

1. Dryer, Cleaner Burns — Elevating wood off damp soil reduces mold and helps logs season properly.

2. Improved Safety — Organized piles are less likely to topple or roll.

3. Extended Wood Life — Covered or elevated racks keep wood usable longer.

4. Convenience — Racks placed near your stove, garage, or outdoor fire pit keep wood accessible.

5. Aesthetic Appeal — A well-built rack looks sharp and adds character to your space.

Choosing the Right Firewood Rack

When selecting a firewood rack, consider:

• Capacity — How many cords or partial cords do you need to store?

• Location — Indoor, outdoor, garage, porch, dockside, or commercial lot?

• Weather Exposure — Will it be covered or out in the open?

• Mobility — Do you need a stationary rack or something portable?

• Style — Do you prefer clean modern lines, rustic looks, or decorative ironwork?

Our team can help you choose or design a rack that meets your exact requirements.

We also fabricate add-ons and accessories:

• Covers & Roofs — To keep wood dry year-round.

Firewood Rack Maintenance

Our racks require minimal maintenance, but to maximize life:

• Keep rack on level ground for even loading.

• Store off damp soil or use a base pad (gravel, pavers, or concrete).

• For indoor racks, wipe clean periodically to maintain finish.
