Box Systems Explained

Festool Van Racking

Where do we start with today's tool storage?

With so many options, we are just looking for a simple answer. You are in the right place. We are breaking down tool systems and getting organised.

MAIN POINTS

The key to being organised is not to overcomplicate things from the start. Now, you might be looking at your tools and thinking, "How do I get this into a system?" We understand you have accumulated tools over many years, but the answer is simple.

  • What's the majority brand of your power tools?
  • What are you using for parts and accessories?
  • How are your hand tools stored?
  • Do you have a day-to-day bag or box?

We will keep this information in mind as we guide you through creating an organised system that suits your needs.

BASIC CONCLUSION

Once you assess what you have, you can start to make things clearer. Do you have a majority power tool brand? This is ideal for streamlining your system. However, even if you don't, our system works for any tool brands and boxes. To see some great power tool storage options for all brands, check this out.

The simplest answer is to use a preferred power tool box to help organise your system. These boxes can be arranged to fit all your tools and parts. We will cover storage for parts and accessories later in this article.
