About

Western Square Industries was founded in 1978. We were the first to manufacture and powder coat farm gates on the west coast, and we did it with a unique square tubing.

In 1993, Trygve Mikkelsen took over and saw the potential of our barrel racks. Using quality steel and our durable powder coating finish, we quickly became the industry standard for barrel room storage and safety.

In the years since, we’ve grown into a family run business, defining quality and dependability for winemakers, brewers, distillers, water distributors, and farmers who rely on what we make to help them make what they love.
