Origin
Design-first from day one
Heckler started with a premise that still holds: if something is going to live in a workspace permanently, it should be designed permanently. Not an afterthought bolted to a wall. Not a commodity bracket hidden behind a screen. A considered piece of infrastructure that belongs in the room.
Since founding, the company has grown from a single product line into a full catalog of AV infrastructure spanning tablet enclosures, display mounts, AV walls, lecterns, credenzas, and modular collaboration frameworks. Every product is designed, prototyped, and fulfilled from a purpose-built facility in Phoenix.
Philosophy
The three fits
Every product decision at Heckler is measured against a simple framework.
It fits together
Engineering precision from first prototype to final assembly. CNC-first manufacturing eliminates tooling constraints, enabling continuous iteration on real production equipment.
It fits your devices
Designed around the technology ecosystem, not the other way around. Validated compatibility with the platforms that run modern workspaces — from iPad to Microsoft Teams Rooms to Zoom.
It fits your workspace
Furniture-grade aesthetics for environments where appearance matters. ADA and TAA compliance designed in from inception, not retrofitted after the fact.
The AV Wall System from Heckler checks all the boxes. Well thought out wire management ensures you only see the modern design of the product. A slim footprint that complements any office space. Easy to install and built to last.

Capabilities
Built different, by design
Heckler operates a tooling-avoidant, CNC-led manufacturing platform. Where competitors invest months and hundreds of thousands of dollars in single-purpose molds, Heckler moves from concept to production in weeks — using the same equipment for prototypes and finished goods.
Rapid Development
Concept to production in weeks, not months. Digital-file-driven iteration enables continuous improvement without tooling reinvestment.
In-House Production
Plastic manufacturing, textile finishing, paneling, assembly, and fulfillment under one roof in a 24,500 sq ft purpose-built facility.
Flat-Pack Logistics
Products engineered to ship in component form, reducing dimensional weight and freight cost while expanding viable shipping economics globally.
Specification-Driven
Products written into room standards at Fortune 100 companies, universities, and government agencies — creating durable, repeatable demand.
Product Portfolio
Seven collections. One design language.
Framework
Modular kit-of-parts designed as repeatable infrastructure for video-meeting walls and collaboration spaces.
AV Walls
Floor-supported, modular wall systems that eliminate the need for custom construction and wall reinforcement.
Stands and Lecterns
Standardized, AV-ready structures for classrooms and training environments, with interchangeable accessories.
Credenzas
Purpose-built AV furniture designed to house technology within meeting rooms and classrooms.
ADA Panels
Accessibility components that redefine circulation paths around hardware, ensuring ADA compliance without compromising design.
Mounts
Precision mounting solutions enabling clean integration of AV devices across commercial verticals.
Markets
Where Heckler works
