Tool boxes and carrying cases for tools

Tool boxes, metal and plastic carrying cases and removable boxes

The tool boxes and carrying cases in this category serve to organise tools and accessories and take them to the job. Professionals in maintenance, installation and construction use them for a fixed kit that travels with them. They belong to various storage.

There are three kinds. Bahco orange tool boxes are elongated boxes in three sizes, from 573 to 640 mm long, for hand tools you want to keep together. Makita offers a plastic carrying case and a metal case, each made for a given tool and its accessories. Facom Matrix removable boxes of 62 and 135 mm are trays you lift out of the system and carry separately.

Choose by what goes in and how you transport it. For a loose collection of hand tools an elongated tool box is practical; for a machine with accessories, a case matched to that tool. Removable boxes help when you take part of your kit to the job and leave the rest in the workshop. For heavy or bulky equipment, a metal chest is the sturdier option. Check the dimensions in mm against the space in the van or cabinet.
