Over 100 Years of Quality American Craftsmanship

With a legacy dating back to 1921, GearGrid—formerly known as Wire Specialties and later Mid-Minnesota Wire—began its journey by specializing in custom retail displays and wire forms. In 1997, GearGrid co-owner and volunteer firefighter, Mike Boyer, designed a durable and well-ventilated locker system for the proper storage of his department’s turnout gear. Recognizing a wider industry need for improved firefighting gear storage, GearGrid launched the American-made product in 1998.

Over 100 Years of Quality American Craftsmanship

Over the next decade, GearGrid cemented its reputation as the leader in firefighting equipment storage by combining relentless innovation with a customer-first approach. In 2002, the company expanded its product line to address the full range of fire department storage needs—including hose and cylinder systems, workstations, and general equipment storage.

Over 100 Years of Quality American Craftsmanship

In 2008, GearGrid launched its products internationally, serving first responders around the world—from Europe and the Asian Pacific to South America and the Middle East. Eight years later, the company expanded into new markets, including Athletics, Public Works, and Tactical, demonstrating the adaptability and value of its products across various worldwide industries.
