Hey all, i have a car i move around with those car dolly's with the smaller casters, how difficult is it to move them across a race deck free flow floor. Im deciding between the circle track or free flow tiles and would like some imput about rolling stuff across them. Thanks!

rolls fine on the diamond plate, sometimes just a bit of a push to get it started and then rolls easily. Can't answer to the circle track or free flow.

Thanks for the response. I tend to shy away from diamond plate though, just dont like the look of it. I really like how the free flows look,just hopeing creepers and dollies can go across them easy. the gaps seem close enough together that only very small wheels would have issues.

Hi
You should have no issue at all with rolling items on FreeFlow. You will fell the texture as you roll but the floor will be solid so it will easily roll. We sell quite a bit for commercial garage.

I've got Circle Track with a Free Flow border.

Both are a bit of a shove to get things moving on them. I have a snap on box that probably weighs 2000# and it's somewhat of a ***** to move, but it does move. A lot of effort compared to concrete.

Same thing with creepers, the wheels get caught on the patterns and require considerably more effort to move things. My FF is just around the edges, so I have limited experience with it, but I have a "feeling" it would be easier to move on.

Funny thing, I have Landscape fabric under my floor. The FF was absolutely dead silent to walk on with the underlay. The Circle track still made a little noise, but not much.
