Strong. Sustainable. Made to Last.

At Organized Living, we don’t just offer wire shelving - we manufacture sustainable, durable solutions that last a lifetime, reducing waste and delivering unmatched durability. Our Lifetime Ventilated Wire Shelving is designed to outperform industry standards, holding up to 75 pounds per linear foot thanks to 30% more steel than competitive systems. It’s the reliable, long-term solution Dealers and professionals trust. 

The Lifetime Difference

Superior Strength 

Lifetime Ventilated is the strongest ventilated wire shelving system available. With proprietary Tri-Loc hardware, its unmatched weight capacity and construction make it the only fixed wire system strong enough to be considered non-substitutable in specifications. Backed by a limited Lifetime Warranty, it's built for long-term performance and peace of mind. 

Made in the USA 

All shelving is proudly manufactured and distributed from our 680,000-square-foot facility in Bloomington, Indiana, ensuring consistent quality, supporting American manufacturing, and minimizing shipping emissions. 

Built to Last 

Engineered with durability in mind, Lifetime Ventilated features an indestructible epoxy powder coating that resists cracking, chipping, peeling, and discoloration, even in high-use environments. Available in White and Nickel finishes, it delivers lasting beauty and performance. 

Reliable Installation 

Our patented hollow wall anchor system creates 360° contact behind drywall, delivering superior holding power - no blocking required. Installation templates simplify setup, ensuring quick, accurate, and secure installs every time. 

Engineered for Sustainability

At Organized Living, sustainability isn’t a trend. It’s a core value we’ve upheld for over a century. From the materials we source to the manufacturing practices we implement, we’re committed to reducing environmental impact at every level. 

Built with Green Materials 

  • Epoxy powder coating is PVC-free, contains no VOCs, and won’t degrade or off-gas over time - unlike vinyl alternatives. 

  • Our wire contains 95% or more recycled steel content. 

Designed to Contribute 

Lifetime Ventilated is engineered with green features that may contribute toward LEED certification, helping you meet modern building standards with confidence. 

Why Dealers Are Switching to Lifetime 

Strongest Installation. No Blocking Required. 

Lifetime Ventilated installs after paint and without the need for blocking, reducing material costs. At Organized Living, we use Tri-Loc II rosetting hardware, a proprietary anchor that creates 360° contact within the wall for unmatched hold. Combined with 30% more steel than competitive systems, Lifetime supports 75 lbs per linear foot, making it the strongest fixed ventilated wire shelving on the market. The result? A faster, cleaner, and more reliable installation that won't disrupt other trades. 

Durability That Outlasts the Competition 

Our advanced epoxy powder coating ensures a bright, clean appearance for years to come. Unlike vinyl-coated shelving that may yellow, degrade, or become sticky over time, epoxy resists wear and tear — no cracking, chipping, or peeling, even in humid conditions. 

Did You Know?

Vinyl-coated wire shelving may seem like a cost-effective solution. Still, over time, it can become sticky, discolored, and even release harmful plasticizers as it degrades, especially in humid environments. Organized Living's epoxy-coated Lifetime Ventilated Shelving eliminates these risks, offering a cleaner, safer, and longer-lasting alternative. 

Let’s build smarter, cleaner, and stronger spaces - together.
