Our Story
Freedom Crate Co. began when I was using a Cold War–era ammo crate to store baseball and basketball cards. I wanted another one for my actual ammo, but nothing on the market felt right—most were decorative, not rugged. So I measured that crate, built my own, and then engineered it to be tougher and more functional with better handles, sturdier lids, and durable finishes.
What started as a personal project combined my love for engineering, woodworking, and patriotism. I began adding stenciled Founders’ quotes and military insignia, inspired by a Marine veteran friend who asked me to build a crate to hold his medals. That request grew into our Military Branch Collection.
Every crate we make is signed and lot-numbered, built to be both functional and collectible. Whether it sits proudly on a shelf or travels with you to the range, a Freedom Crate is built to last—part rugged gear, part functional art.
