It's 0200. Your team is wheels-up in six hours. The last thing you need is to be repacking busted pallets or searching for scattered gear. In the field, you don't get a second chance to pack right. When every weapon and supply matters, storage has to be more than tough. It has to be tactical.
At Patterson Pope, we've built storage systems for just about every kind of facility out there, but there's something special about supporting the United States Armed Forces.
Military installations face two big storage challenges:
- Keeping massive amounts of equipment organized and ready
- Moving that gear quickly and securely when deployment calls
Packing adequately for a rapid deployment can take weeks. Instead, that time could be better spent training and preparing your unit for a successful mission. That's where we come in. Alongside our partners at Spacesaver, we offer military-certified weapon storage racks and deployment-ready systems that make organization simple and transport seamless. No pallets or last-minute packing, just clean, efficient storage that's ready to deploy when your team is. Let's gear up.
Built for Duty: Universal Weapons Racks in Action
There's a reason the Universal Weapons Rack (UWR) is the go-to in military armories across the country. It's flexible, field-tested, and built for real-world input from the people who use it every day.
Each UWR is designed to secure multiple types of weapons and gear, from M4s and MK19s to optics and sidearms, all in a single, compact footprint. And the best part? No disassembly or rezeroing required. Just grab-and-go readiness.
The UWR keeps weapons safe, secure, and accessible. Ventilated, perforated doors make inventory checks fast. Durable construction and PVC-coated barrel supports keep weapons in place, even when you're moving fast. And with integrated locking bars and stackable configurations, you can scale up or down without losing sleep or compliance.
In Transport
UWR Cabinets ship easily — no pallets, no repacking, and no surprise gear damage when you arrive.
In Theater
Get the right gear, right when you need it. Your weapons stay organized, protected, and ready for action.
You can even mount UWR systems onto high-density mobile storage to maximize secure storage in tight spaces. Less wasted square footage, and no wasted time. Or if you need something more compact, the UWRmini offers the same protection and adaptability in a slimmer footprint, perfect for tight arms rooms and transport containers where every inch matters.
A Tool with Bite
Need a storage solution that works just as hard in the field as it does at base? Meet the SHARKCAGE® by Spacesaver. Built for mobility, durability, and mission-critical efficiency, SHARKCAGEs® enable seamless transitions through storage, transport, deployment, and reset (without the storage headaches).
This is the gear-hauler that adapts to your needs. With models like Standard, Hazmat, Tactical Locker, Wheel Cages, and more, SHARKCAGEs® are stackable, lockable, and foldable, and they're ready to ship by land, sea, air, or helicopter sling. And since they're built from hot-dip galvanized steel, they hold up in extreme conditions and pass MIL-STD tests with flying colors.
Highlights include:
- Forklift- and top-lift compatible for fast movement
- Adjustable, tool-free shelving and strapping points inside
- Self-centering stacking corners and secure padlock-ready doors
- See-through grid for fast inventory checks (with optional covers to conceal contents)
- Minimal need for dunnage — just load and go
And when the mission's complete, you can collapse the cage and ship it back, ready for the next operation. From field hospitals to forward staging areas, SHARKCAGE® helps you roll in prepared and roll out fast, with every piece of gear accounted for.
