Interlocking Tool Storage Systems

Every modular part of an interlocking storage system is designed to lock together and be stackable. This allows you to combine them into a single unit. User-friendly storage features like customizable foam inserts protect power tools. Internal organizers for small items keep everything handy. Interlocking storage systems can also include fabric tool bags and totes for grab-and-go convenience.
Durable & Transportable Tool Storage

Interlocking systems are made of durable, heavy-duty and high-performance modular toolboxes. They are designed to withstand impact and resist the damage of outdoor elements and a jobsite. The base of an interlocking tool storage system can also be a rolling base such as a toolbox. By attaching modular storage products to this wheeled base, you can securely and efficiently transport tools in one trip.
Building a Custom Storage System

Interlocking storage systems allow you to create a customizable tool storage system. Here’s the best way to design a personalized modular tool kit when building your modular unit:
- Start with a rolling base for easy transport.
- Choose the individual toolboxes, cases and organizers that work best for your tools.
- Always stack your items from heaviest to lightest. This increases stability and reduces the likelihood of damage.
Rolling Toolbox

A rolling toolbox lets you carry more tools securely to more places. An interlocking storage system rolling toolbox offers a built-in dolly and all-terrain wheels. You can take it around the yard or around a job site. Some rolling boxes can even make it easier to transport larger power tools.
Modular Tool Cases

Modular tool cases are available in multiple size options. Many have essential features like interior organizer trays and deep storage. Some tool cases come with customizable foam inserts to safeguard power tools. Foam inserts prevent damage to any fragile or sensitive tools in your kit.
Interlocking Storage Accessories

Accessories make an interlocking tool storage system more convenient.
- A small parts organizer keeps smaller items organized in removable compartments. They are designed to stop parts from moving during transit. The organizer’s transparent lid also makes it easier to see what you’re looking for.
- Attach a fabric tool bag or tote to the top of your interlocking storage system for fast access to often-used tools.
- Whether you’re working in the yard or on the jobsite, a lunch cooler keeps meals and refreshments handy.
An interlocking storage system for tools allows for effortless stacking and organization in garages and other storage areas. Always build your interlocking tool storage system from the base to the top. Consider starting with a rolling dolly base or toolbox that makes it easy to get your tools to your next project.
