Established in 1967 as a wire job shop, WireCrafters LLC has grown to become the nation’s leading producer of wire partition products. We started by concentrating our efforts on one product and developed a partition system that has since changed the industry.
The inherent simplicity and strength of our Style 840 Wire Partition System opened the door to many new applications for wire partitions. Not only can our system handle the traditional partition uses such as the construction of tool cribs, secured storage areas, and maintenance cages; customers also began using it for machine guards, physical barriers for robotic work cells, pallet rack backing, vertical lift enclosures, and DEA approved pharmaceutical enclosures.
RapidGuard® II Panels & Posts
Panels are made of 10 gauge welded wire and patterned in a 1 1/4″ SQ (center to center). The mesh is then welded into a 1 1/4″ x 1 1/4″ 13 gauge roll formed angle. Strong 2″ x 2″ 14 gauge tube posts have threaded inserts pre-drilled into the posts for quick mounting of the panels. Lift-Off Panels lift off from the upright posts, allowing easy access to the equipment you are guarding. RapidGuard® II is compliant with OSHA and ANSI/RIA safety standards. A variety of safety switches or interlocks can be supplied with a RapidGuard™ II door. System installs 50% faster than conventional physical barrier products.
