Overview
A 13 inch lockable tool box from Craftsman with a padlock eye, front metal latch, and a removable tray for small hand tools. Built with a comfort grip handle for carrying between the shop, the garage, and a job site.
This is a compact box sized for hand tools and small parts rather than a full chest of drawers, and the padlock eye means you supply your own lock if you want it secured. Interior dimensions aren't listed here, so it's worth measuring your largest tools against the 13 inch outer size before assuming everything you own fits.
- 13 inch lockable tool box
- Front metal latch plus padlock eye
- Removable internal tray
- Comfort grip carry handle
Who it's for
Fits someone who wants one lockable box for a core set of hand tools that travels between locations. Not sized for power tools or a full mechanic's set, given the compact footprint.
Pros and cons
- Padlock eye for adding your own lock
- Removable tray separates small tools
- Comfort grip handle for carrying
- Compact 13 inch size travels easily
- No lock included, only the eye to add one
- Interior dimensions aren't listed, so fit isn't certain for larger tools
Performance notes
The front metal latch and padlock eye let you secure the box shut and add your own lock for job sites or shared spaces, while the internal tray keeps small hand tools separated from bulkier items below it. The comfort grip handle is built for repeated carrying rather than just occasional moves.
