Bilt Industries and industrial shelving

In the fall of 2004, Bilt Industries, Inc. purchased the Klip-Bilt II® and Quick-Bilt® shelving lines from the Frick-Gallagher Manufacturing Company. Designed at inception to be the leanest viable business in the shelving industry, Bilt is structured to rapidly adjust so as to insulate its customers from market forces.
Galvanized by a stalwart business model, Bilt immediately began carving out a place for itself and earning the loyalty of significant customers. It has since proven more than capable of preserving the high-quality specification that Frick-Gallagher first offered over 70 years ago. The fledgling company proved so successful, in fact, that by 2007 it had already introduced a new line of box shelves. An impressive rate of growth continued to afford Bilt opportunities to diversify. As the decade drew to a close, this manifested in the launch of both an HD modular drawer line and mezzanine construction services.
Today, Bilt Industries has two state-of-the-art roll formers, modernized tooling, and a painting process, known as powder coating, that mitigates its environmental impact. With a new 40,000 sq ft. corporate office/distribution center in the greater Kansas City area, Bilt is well poised to continue realizing its ambitions.


Our Mission: Maintain excruciatingly high product standards, develop personal relationships with our customers, perfect our ability to adjust to market forces, and continue investing capital in cost-abating technology.
The Klip-BILT II® combines rugged industrial strength with powerful ease of assembly. Optimized for both open and closed shelving, this unit is equipped with strongbox front posts that free up space and bolster its load-bearing capabilities. Lickety-Klip shelf clips secure each corner and allow for effortless reconfiguration as your needs change.
A sturdy, dependable compression clip, the Lickety-Klip is designed for holes pre-punched on 1 1/2" centers. Lickety-Klips can be readily deployed at whatever height you desire and, as they're independent of those in adjacent units, can be adjusted without hassle. 
Shelves can be assembled and reorganized quickly using four clips and nothing else; no bolts or tools are required.
Starting with a basic post and shelf arrangement, shelf dividers and drawers can then be added according to your needs. From there you decide on whether you want an open or closed configuration. The former employs side and back cross braces, the latter side panels, back panels, and if requested doors.
