An industrial tool crib creates one controlled place to store, issue and return tools, parts and equipment. Wire partitions keep inventory visible while limiting access, and the interior can be configured around the way maintenance, manufacturing and warehouse teams actually work.
Two3 plans, sources and installs the enclosure and the storage inside it, from panels and doors to industrial cabinets, shelving, drawers and work surfaces.

More than a workspace
ONE ENCLOSURE, BUILT AROUND THE WORKFLOW
A useful tool crib starts with the inventory and the people using it. Two3 can help map the footprint, access points and interior equipment before the system is ordered, then coordinate the pieces through installation.

- Industrial shelving and small-parts storage
- Drawer cabinets, mobile cabinets and workbenches
- Layouts planned around traffic and tool-issue flow

TOOL CRIB, DRIVER CAGE OR WIRE LOCKER?
The names are often grouped together, but they solve different problems. This guide explains where each enclosure fits and what to consider before choosing one.
Common questions
TOOL CRIB BASICS
What is an industrial tool crib?
An industrial tool crib is a controlled storage area for tools, parts, supplies and equipment. It can be built with wire partitions for visibility and security, then equipped with shelving, cabinets, drawers and work surfaces.
Why use wire partitions for a tool crib?
Wire partitions create a physical boundary while keeping stored items visible. They can be configured around the available footprint and paired with swing, slide or service-window access.
What can go inside a tool crib?
Common interior equipment includes industrial shelving, bin storage, drawer cabinets, mobile cabinets, work tables and counters. The right mix depends on the inventory, frequency of use and how tools are issued.
How is a tool crib different from a driver cage?
A tool crib is organized around storing and issuing tools or parts. A driver cage is typically used near a loading dock to keep visiting drivers in a defined safe area. The wire construction may look similar, but the layout and purpose are different.
