What to look for when purchasing a tool box or tool chest

Tool storage comes in so many different variations and configurations so you will want to work out what works for your needs from the outset. Whilst tempting to go for the biggest, and possibly most expensive, these towering tool boxes may be overkill if you only do occasional work on your vehicle or have a minimum of tools.

A practical first step is to look at a compact 6 or 9 drawer tool chest. These are a good starting point to provide secure storage of your tools and can be purchased from around $400 and up.

From this durable top box option the next point would be to look at a tool trolley to house even more tools, but also to locate your tool chest on top of. This dual storage arrangement enables greater capacity for both hand and power tools but also has increased mobility due to wheels or castors. The ability to quickly and easily maneuver your tool chest and trolley around the workshop stops you from walking back and forth across the garage to swap tools.

Naturally a larger capacity tool trolley will be more expensive than the tool box that sits on top of it, and in most cases be prepared to budget anywhere from $600 upwards depending on features and specifications.

In every example listed there will be significant variance in price, features and configurations, so be prepared to do your homework to understand the must have specifications prior to your purchase.

Key features to maximising your tool chest or tool trolley purchase are -

• Industrial strength castors - These enable ease of mobility around the workshop and can support the weight of a fully laden tool box combination
• Soft closing drawer mechanisms - The ability to have cushioned closing of your drawers stops both movement of your tools but also less wear and tear on the drawer mechanisms
• Ball bearing drawer slides - A loaded drawer in your tool box can weigh many kilograms so the smooth running of ball bearing slides makes for effortless opening and closing
• Powder coated steel - The solid construction of your tool box equates to increased longevity and reliability. Powder coated metal makes your tool box both scratch resistant but also less prone to rust and aging.
• Gauge of steel - This is one of the key corners that is cut when it comes to buying a cheap tool box. Look for thick gauge metal to withstand the knocks and abuse of garage life.

From a compact 6 drawer tool chest to the behemoth 56 and 61 inch work stations Repco can provide the tool storage solutions no matter how big or small your tool kits & sets are. Repco stock the right tool chest and trolleys in configurations that enable you to add and expand to in time.
