Stanley Vidmar, a leader in providing premium custom storage solutions for use in the automotive industry, has introduced a newly configured, shallow-depth mobile tool cabinet that gives service center technicians easy access to their most accessed tools. Clean styling, durable construction and a range of configuration options make it the perfect solution to work efficiently and maximize organization and security of valuable equipment.

Stanley Vidmar will feature its new mobile toolbox in booth 8413S of the National Automobile Dealers Association Convention and Expo in San Francisco, CA, from Feb 9-12, 2008.

The lightweight, low-profile 21-3/8-inch deep toolbox is available in 45-inch (XW) or 60-inch (DW) widths and a variety of heights to accommodate most every space and storage demand. The toolbox can be customized in a number of drawer configurations to create the most ideal mobile part and tool storage space.

The cabinet utilizes Stanley Vidmar’s rigid, welded steel, T-frame design for the ultimate in durability. The design enables the integration of one or more full-width drawers in the upper portion of the cabinet. Two additional storage banks in the lower portion can be configured with doors, drawers, or a mix of both, making the ideal storage solution for small and large tools alike.

The smooth-rolling drawers utilize durable ball-bearing slides for easy access to tools and parts. Each drawer holds up to 200-pounds and can be sub-divided with Stanley Vidmar drawer partitions and dividers. A full line of drawer liners, including ribbed vinyl, rubberized non-slip mat, foam rubber, or felt, can be used to keep tools and parts organized and protected from damage. Additional accessories include plastic trays, bin dividers and label holders for part or tool identification.

An integrated lock keeps valuable tools and parts protected when not in use. A full line of smooth-rolling casters is available depending on customer needs.

A flat workspace on the top of the toolbox provides amble space to keep even the largest parts and tools within quick reach. A ribbed vinyl non-slip mat holds items security and protects the cabinet and tools from potential damage.

Like Stanley Vidmar’s other storage solutions, the toolbox is backed by a lifetime warranty and is available in 10 different color options. Custom colors are also available on request.
