The present invention is a rack apparatus for drying multiple rigid, painted objects. The apparatus is made up of two identical racks. Each rack has a base, to which is attached two vertical bars, perpendicular to the base, which have in between them a horizontal handle for carrying. Attached to the vertical bars are vertical posts, extending in a direction perpendicular to the base. Each post has multiple hooks which support horizontal poles. When disassembled, the poles and posts can be placed in pole storage holders, which are connected to the base. This allows for the apparatus to be easily transported and space efficient. The apparatus functions by placing the two racks on opposite ends of the rigid object. Spikes are driven into the upper and lower ends of a door or other rigid object. The spikes support the door on spaced sawhorses, where the door is painted. After the painting is complete, the door can be lifted by the spikes and carried to the apparatus, where the door is placed in the apparatus to dry by resting the spikes on the horizontal poles. This invention allows the drying of several doors or other rigid objects simultaneously in the same area and allows for the entire object to be painted at one time. The present invention can also be used as a storage apparatus for holding multiple doors or other rigid objects in showrooms and warehouses, instead of stacking and leaning them against walls, which many times results in surface damage to the doors or rigid objects. Multiple rack assemblies can also be incorporated into a workbench saw table.
