FOR FIRE & EMS ONLY
The Industry Standard for PPE Storage was created in 1998 with the introduction of the GearGrid Turn Out Gear Locker. Since then, other look-a-like products have come and gone. When the Facts, Features and Benefits are reviewed side by side, it becomes clear that there is much more to determine Best Value than meets the eye. Thank you for taking the time to investigate and evaluate your options. Please let us know if you have any questions.
