    Lifting Brackets

    Organize and secure tools on-site—these chests have built-in shelves to keep your supplies sorted. Also known as job boxes, they’re built from powder-coated steel, so they’re durable enough for demanding sites and resist rust. To prevent break-ins, the padlock shackle is fully concealed. Gas springs help the lid open and close smoothly.
    Add electricity inside by punching out the knockout and installing the included weatherproof grommet.
    Install lifting brackets (sold separately) to move chests with a crane or other lifting equipment.

    These chests lock automatically when you close the lid thanks to a built-in spur—there’s no need to slide a rod into place. The locking components are stainless steel and protected by the chest itself, so there’s little chance they’ll weaken from corrosion. All have a removable shelf that can be taken out to make room for tall equipment or used as a portable tool tray. You can also flip the shelf upside down to create a work surface. Slotted forklift pockets add stability when lifting and allow you to lift from any side.

    Lifting Brackets

    Secure equipment and supplies on-site. Also known as job boxes, these chests are made from durable steel that is powder-coated to resist rust. To prevent break-ins, they have a recessed pocket that hides the shackle of a padlock so it can’t be cut.
    To add electricity directly inside, punch out the knockouts and install the included weatherproof grommet.
    Add casters (sold separately) to make chests mobile.
    Style A

    Style A have two latches that each require a padlock (not included) to lock. When loading supplies, you can prop the lid open; it locks into place like the legs of a folding table. Slide your forklift's forks into the pockets to lift from either end.

    Style B have three latches that lock automatically when you close the lid, thanks to built-in spurs. You'll only need one padlock (not included) to lock all three. A lip around the edge of the lid deters break-ins. Gas springs inside the chest help you open and close the lid smoothly. They lock automatically when the lid is fully extended and unlock with a latch. These chests have slotted forklift pockets, so you can lift them from any side. Install lifting brackets (sold separately) to move them with a crane or other lifting equipment. Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

To prevent break-ins, the padlock shackle is fully concealed. Slide your forklift’s forks into the pockets on the bottom to move them. You can lift them from any side.
