Shoulder Pad Cart Case Study

When Brett Hall, Athletic Director at North Hall Middle School in Georgia, set out to upgrade the school’s football shoulder pad storage, he needed a system capable of withstanding daily use while keeping gear organized, accessible, and protected. 

After discovering the GearGrid Shoulder Pad Cart, Hall quickly realized it was the perfect fit for the school’s football program. Engineered for durability and efficiency , this innovative sports equipment storage cart has completely streamlined how North Hall stores, transports, and maintains its football shoulder pads. 

 

Storage Equipment Built Tough for Athletic Environments

“These racks are well built, sturdy, and very simple to assemble,” said Hall. “The quality of the Shoulder Pad Cart is great—extremely heavy-duty.”

Designed specifically for athletic facilities, locker rooms, and high-traffic equipment areas, the GearGrid Shoulder Pad Cart is manufactured using only the strongest materials. It’s features include: 

  • Four heavy-duty swivel, locking casters for smooth mobility and secure placement

  • A super-durable powder coat finish for long-lasting protection

  • Durable  steel construction for unmatched strength and stability

GearGrid’s commitment to superior craftsmanship ensures that every product not only meets but exceeds the expectations of athletic directors and coaches nationwide.

 

Sports Equipment Storage: Protecting & Preserving Shoulder Pads

The design of the Shoulder Pad Cart does more than organize gear—it helps extend the life of athletic equipment. By storing pads in an inverted position, the cart allows them to maintain their shape and structural integrity. 

“I like how the cart keeps the integrity of the pads,” Hall noted.

GearGrid offers both Single Post and Double Post Shoulder Pad Cart configurations to accommodate programs of all sizes:

  • The Single Post Shoulder Pad Cart holds up to 25 shoulder pads, perfect for smaller teams, limited spaces, or dedicated equipment rooms.  
  • The Double Post Shoulder Pad Cart, used by North Hall, provides a total capacity of 50 shoulder pads—25 per post— maximizing storage while maintaining a compact footprint. 

Both designs help keep pads well-ventilated, neatly organized, and easily accessible during practices and game days. Whether a team needs a smaller sports equipment storage cart or a high-capacity unit, GearGrid delivers the right fit for every athletic program.
