Red light therapy panel stands, Vertical and bed stands

1. Wall-and-Door Hanging Options

• Wall Hook

  • Pros: Ultra-low cost; invisible when not in use; keeps panel completely out of the way.

  • Cons: Fixed height; limited adjustability; depends on stud placement or drywall anchors rated for the panel’s weight.

• Door Hook

  • Pros: No drilling required; height can be changed by moving the hook up or down the door; easy to stow away.

  • Cons: Panels hang close to the door surface—and potentially smack into it if you swing the door; weight limits depend on door construction.

Both options work best for smaller panels (60–100 LEDs) and in dedicated treatment rooms where the panel will stay in place for an extended period.

2. Horizontal or “Bed” Stands

These are low-profile, purpose-built cradles designed to sit beside—or even under—your bed, massage table, or treatment bench.

• Design Features:

  • Wide bases for stability.

  • Adjustable angle so you can tilt the panel up toward your torso, face, or legs.

  • Often include built-in LED mounting rails that line up perfectly with red light panels.

• Typical Use Cases: Full-body morning treatments while you’re still in bed, facial treatments at eye-level, or calf/foot treatments while seated.

3. Small-Device Stands & Red-Light Therapy Beds

Small Devices (<100 LEDs)

• Most compact panels (under 100 LEDs) include their own lightweight stand—either a folding tripod or a small A-frame—so you can position them on a table, shelf, or countertop.

• These stands are sized for portability: they collapse flat for travel or storage and typically allow simple tilt and height adjustments.

Therapy Beds & Bed Stands

• Red-Light Therapy Beds are full-length units designed to envelop your entire body—think of them as tanning beds that use therapeutic wavelengths instead of UV.

  • Some beds pivot vertically, doubling as a tall stand for targeted leg or back work.

  • Others feature electric lift mechanisms, letting you raise or lower the entire bed at the push of a button for easier entry and exit.

• Bed-Style Stands for standalone panels mimic these features:

  • Motorized height adjustment to match your treatment table or massage bench.

  • Swivel and tilt functions for precise targeting without bending or stooping.

4. Vertical “TV-Style” Stands

Most vertical stands on the market are actually designed for flat-screen televisions—and they work surprisingly well for red light therapy panels with a few caveats:

• Standard Features:

  • Heavy steel frames with locking caster wheels.

  • One set of vertical mounting rails (VESA-style) that can usually hold two panels overlapped in a “tall” configuration.

• Limitations for Red Light Panels:

  • Only one set of rails—so to mount four panels side-by-side (for a very wide configuration), you’ll need additional rails or adaptor brackets.

  • Protruding metal brackets and adapters may stick out beyond the panel edges, making the setup look “DIY.”

Pro Tip: Our SECOTRA panels include 8–10 sets of mounting holes, so you have lots of options for height, width, and stacking—even on a single TV stand.

5. Roller or “Drop-In” Stands

Also called roller-boot or drop-in stands, these are designed with an open cradle: you literally drop your panel into a saddle at the top of the stand.

• Advantages:

  • Low-to-ground profile—great for seated or floor-level treatments.

  • Quick setup—no bolts or rails to fuss with.

• Disadvantages:

  • Often custom-made for a single panel width, so there’s less flexibility if you upgrade to a larger panel.

  • May lack built-in cable management.

6. Popular Freestanding Rolling TV Stands

If you decide on a TV-style rolling stand, several models stand out for reliability, adjustability, and customer satisfaction:

Note: Most of these stands ship in two metal tubes plus a hardware bag—so shipping costs can be a surprisingly large chunk of the total price.

7. What to Look for When Buying

• Weight Capacity vs. Panel Weight: Always leave a 20–30 lb safety margin.

• VESA Rail Options: One set of rails may be fine for two panels; more hole patterns (like on SECOTRA) means more flexibility.

• Caster Quality: Locking, smooth-rolling wheels that won’t scuff your floor.

• Adjustability: Height range, tilt angle, and the ability to add a second bracket set.

• Package Dimensions: Bulky stands cost more to ship—factor that into your budget.

Bottom Line & Recommendations

1. Assess Your Needs & Space First

   • Measure ceiling height, floor footprint, and traffic patterns.

   • Decide whether you need portability (casters) or a more permanent fix (wall hooks or bed stand).

2. Match Device Size to Stand Type

   • Under 100 LEDs? Use the fold-out stand that comes with the panel or a simple tabletop tripod.

   • Full-length treatments? Consider a therapy bed or a motorized bed-style stand.

3. Plan for Future Expansion

   • If you might add more panels later, choose a vertical TV-style stand with extra rail capacity—or pick a modular system built for red light devices.
