For over 25 years FreeAxez has pioneered the access floor industry by simplifying the flexible work environment in a broad range of spaces including offices, laboratories, broadcast studios, airports, control rooms, etc., around the world. FreeAxez' patented flagship product, Gridd, provides buildings with the flexibility to route and hide all information cables in a modular, low-profile, all-steel structure right under their feet. This tool-free installation can also distribute electrical energy using Gridd Power(R) - a modular 50-amp electrical power bus system. Utilizing the Gridd Mobile(R) augmented reality app, technicians and facility teams can view cable layouts through the flooring, allowing for quick and efficient reconfiguration. Gridd is: Made in the USA, UL listed in the US & Canada, GreenSpec listed, and meets the requirements of IAPMO Uniform ES, ASHRAE 90.1, USGBC, the IBC, ASTM E84, and ISO9001:2015. FreeAxez provides complete design assistance with installation plans for Gridd, Gridd Power, and cable infrastructure.

Gridd Mobile is a revolutionary app for smart devices which incorporates Augmented Reality (AR), and all the information needed about a facility's cable and power management system including catalogs, As-built drawings, original site pictures, attic stock inventory, How-to-videos, and a QR library of detail cut sheets. Typically, when a facility project completes, it is turned over from the builder and sub-contractor to the occupants and facility managers. The occupants move in, and the architects, builders, and installers move onto their next project. This often leaves in-house teams unaware of the systems beneath the floor. Gridd Mobile provides augmented reality (AR), technical support, as-built drawings, how-to-videos, original site pictures, and product information conveniently accessible on a smart phone or tablet. This innovation provides an "X-ray" view of power and data cabling beneath the floor covering - all without opening an access panel. Location of all IT and power infrastructure underneath are precisely identified, eliminating guess work and unnecessary labor. Gridd Mobile is an indispensable tool for facility managers, IT teams, electricians, and maintenance personnel. Gridd Mobile truly gives the Power to Change(TM) V.
