Whaley Rail Monitor Mounting Frame – Shape Wagon

Price range: USD$652.50 through USD$922.50

The Whaley Rail II is a collaborative design between Ben Whaley (667 DIT) & Upgrade Innovations. The frame system integrates with the Shape Wagon cart to provide a solid, lightweight, adaptable & removable mounting frame to hold multiple production monitors and other accessories.

Build the Whaley Rail frame system to the Shape Wagon, making use of the carts corner deck clamps on the top deck. For further information on the assembly process, check out the Whaley Rail II – Shape Wagon Assembly Instructions.

NEW – Whaley Rail frame systems now include our innovative Whaley 3/8 Pin-Loc Baby Pin, a non-twist baby pin designed for the Whaley Rail system. Whaley Pin-Loc is using the ARRI standard pin-loc spacing, with a longer 3/8″ male thread to provide added anchor strength.

The Whaley Rail II system is designed to integrate with our popular Ball-Lock Monitor Spigot Mounts and Quick Release VESA Plates. The Ball-Lock system is a positive-lock system for rock solid monitor support when static and dynamic forces are at play. Check out the MMS09 VESA Mount, MMS11-MC VESA Mount and the Quick Release VESA Plate.

Consider adding our Mobile/Cart VESA Spigot Ball-Lock Monitor Mounts

Single Hinge MMS09 VESA Monitor Mount to 5/8″ Spigot – Ball-Loc

The MMS09 Ball-Loc VESA Monitor Mount supports broadcast quality monitors up to 77 lb/35kg, designed specifically for mobile cart/truck applications.

Twin Hinge MMS11-MC VESA Monitor Mount to 5/8″ Spigot – Twin Ball-Loc

The MMS11-MC Twin Ball-Loc VESA Monitor Mount supports broadcast quality monitors up to 77 lb/35kg, designed specifically for mobile cart/truck applications. The two-point adjustment design, allows for unlimited viewing positions, making it a preferred mounting option.

Baby Pin Pan Lock Clamp

Baby pin mounting is common on set; however, these mounting systems can suffer on mobile applications where spigot tie down knobs inevitably loosen from mobile forces. The Baby Pin Pan Lock Clamp (link) limits the mount from panning on the baby pin and will keep monitors in the desired orientation.

Consider adding our Rudy Arm - 15mm Mounting System

Make use of our Rudy Arm for holding scopes, GUI monitors, Iris handsets and other smaller accessories. Take advantage of the Arri 3/8 Pin-Loc patterns on the Whaley Rail by solid mounting our Rudy Arm with the Arri 3/8 15mm mounting spuds. Our innovative and trusted Ball-Loc Pivot Clamp will ensure your accessories are held in place.

The Rudy Arm system is interchangeable so you can use this arm in conjunction with other Rudy Arm components and 15mm accessories. Build possibilities are truly endless with the entire arm being a 15mm mounting surface (always check load rating when re-configuring parts).

What is included in the Shape Base Assembly?

Designed and Built for Professional DIT’s

Laimonas Stasiulis, Stills DigiTech & Motion DIT

“The Whaley Rail has been a total revolution. Darrel provided so much information prior the sale which allowed me to fit it perfectly to my Inovativ Voyager cart. It’s incredibly sturdy, super light and really well thought out. On the voyager I use it with 2x 24” monitors and have variety of accessories (like access points, receivers, routers) attached to the vertical and horizontal poles. Compared to other solutions on the market – this is so much lighter, sturdier and quicker to assemble. Genuinely my favourite part of the entire cart.”

Chris Valites, DIT / Digital Tech

“Adding the Whaley Rail system to my setup has made my cart setup time drop while giving me much greater flexibility for mounting accessories, scopes, receivers, and more. Being able to use a single mounting setup for both my stills digital tech work and my video DIT work has really allowed me to better offer my clients versatility on whatever the shoot may bring.”

Chris Hoyle, Digital Imaging Technician

“The Whaley Rail system provides a level of durability and efficiency that I desperately needed working TV. The quick release plate system is a game changer. I can’t imagine working as a DIT without a Whaley Rail.”

Joshua Gollish, Digital Imaging Technician

“Darrel and the U.I. Team are first class— their off-the-shelf products have streamlined and ruggedized all of my accessories, not to mention creating solid monitor frames to put on any of my carts. Moreover, their design team created custom solutions for mounting and minimizing clutter. They’re my go-to for any build.”

Ryan B Nguyen, Digital Imaging Technician

“Brilliant and modular mounting system matched with spectacular build quality designed to stand the rigors of set – the WRII has rightly earned its reputation as an essential aftermarket cart mod.”

Joshua Nagy, Digital Imaging Technician

I’ve tried a number of monitor mounting solutions and none come close to the sturdiness, flexibility, and simplicity of the Whaley Rail. I consider this an essential part of any cart build going forward.

CJ Miller, Digital Imaging Technician

“Been rocking the Whaley Rail for some weeks now and I must say it’s the best upgrade I’ve done to my Inovativ Echo cart in a long time. Very solid build quality and installation was a breeze. Going up and down ramps, over cable crossings, sprinting in the sudden rain to the camera truck, this rail system held up perfectly”

Andrew Richardson, Digital Imaging Technician

“Excellent design and very sturdy. Flexible mounting options make this work in a variety of on-set scenarios. Easily supports four 25″ OLED monitors”

Omar Rivera, Digital Imaging Technician

“Like everything done by Upgrade the system is simple, versatile and super customizable. An elegant solution with amazing build quality.”

Refah Mahmoud, Digital Imaging Technician

“Whether it was rolling across the deck of the starship Jupiter or riding a wagon train into the Wild West, my Whaley Rail system has been dependable, flexible, and supremely capable. In a word: invaluable.”
