Custom Tool Crib Design for Improved Safety and Efficiency
Project Overview:
WireCrafters partnered with Trammell Equipment Company to deliver a custom tool crib solution for Martinrea, a global leader in automotive manufacturing.

This case study explores how the collaboration between WireCrafters and Trammell Equipment Company resulted in a robust, efficient tool crib that met Martinrea’s security and operational needs.
Customer Description
Martinrea needed a secure and highly visible storage solution for its high-priced tools within its production facility, focusing on lightweight structures and propulsion systems for the automotive industry. The goal was to consolidate tools in one secure area while ensuring forklift drivers could easily avoid collisions with the enclosure. To meet this need, the tool crib was designed using with safety yellow posts that matched the existing mezzanine handrails and staircases. The solution also required a hinged pedestrian door and a sliding door for moving large items, each equipped with simple critical locks for added security.

The WireCrafters Difference
Since 1967, when WireCrafters was established as a wire job shop, it has become the nation’s leading producer of wire partition products. Contrary to traditional systems, our woven and welded wire partitions are based on the simple idea that panels stack one on top of the other between tubular posts to reach the finished partition height. Our ability to create customizable-sized panels sets us apart from all other competitors.
Our mission is to provide our customers with creative solutions for their safety, security, and storage needs while meeting commitments with exceptional quality by people who care.
