Our Story Begins in 1983
The 2000s were characterized by organic growth initiatives and acquisitions designed to expand the reach of each company while continuing to offer more value to their customers. These included The Tool House’s purchase of GD Hoist in 2010 and Rhino Assembly’s acquisition of KA technologies in 2011.
As the global manufacturing climate continued to become more and more competitive, both companies recognized that domestic manufacturing plants simply could not afford to spend valuable resources on outdated processes that resulted in issues affecting productivity, quality and safety. Their emphasis on being reliable tool suppliers lessened as their role in the manufacturer’s overall success increased, and they found themselves actively collaborating with customers to find the right solutions to help them be more successful throughout their operations.
In 2018, with similar cultures and mindsets, the two companies came together to form Rhino Tool House. Offering valuable manufacturing expertise, customized engineered solutions, and local, hands-on support to the entire continental United States.
Today Rhino Tool House provide superior services, local expertise, and a high degree of responsiveness to empower our customers to be more productive, build a better-quality product, and maintain a safe environment for their workers.
