Given its design and form, the Bat Rack can also be used as a burglar deterrent in some cases, although it might be deadly. But let’s focus on its primary function. As the designers affirm, the Bat Rack is a combination between a classic piece of sports equipment and an everyday household piece of furniture. The result is a multifunctional piece designed both to serve and protect.
