Can a Tool Crib Be Customized To Fit My Space?

Yes! Each tool crib on WirePartitions.com can be made in custom configurations and sizes to fit your space perfectly. Keep in mind that custom-made tool cribs to fit a specific space or need will likely be more expensive than standard pre-fabricated tool cribs.

What customization options are available for custom-built tool cribs?

Wall Panel Mesh Type: 

All of our tool cribs are constructed from heavy duty, industrial strength steel wire mesh panels. Steel is the most popular choice for tool cribs and the majority of wire partitions as it offers superior durability and strength for heavy-duty applications. Steel can withstand significant weight and impact, making it ideal for securing valuable inventory or bulky materials in warehouses, factories, or construction sites.

For custom-built tool cribs, you have the option to choose from the following types of steel mesh panels, which serve as the walls of the tool crib:

• Welded wire (10ga – 2” x 2” square) *most popular*
• Welded wire (6ga – 2” x 2” square)
• Welded wire (6ga – 1.5” x 2” rectangle)
• Woven wire (10ga – 1.5” x 1.5” diamond)
• Woven wire (10ga – 0.5” x 0.5” square)
• Woven wire (10ga – 1” x 1” square)
• Expanded metal (flat or raised)
• Sheet metal (16ga infill panel)

Standard Layout Options:

• One Wall: This is a basic setup with wire partition panels connected to posts along a single wall. It’s useful for creating a designated area alongside an existing wall.

• Two Walls: This creates a corner enclosure with wire mesh on two adjacent walls. This is commonly used to section off a workspace or storage area.

• Three Walls: This design creates a room-like structure with wire mesh on three sides. One side would either remain open as an access point or it would be up against an existing wall. This is useful for creating secure cages or restricted areas. *most popular*

• Four Walls: This forms a completely enclosed space with wire mesh on all four sides. Doors would be incorporated into one wall for access. 

Each of these standard layouts is able to incorporate a door into one of the wire partition panels. 

Standard Height Options:

• 7’ – 2”
• 8’ – 2” *most popular*
• 9’ – 2”
• 10’ – 2”

Door Types:

• Hinged door *most popular*
• Double hinged door
• Sliding door
