Size

The main size of the container for tools. Inches are traditionally used for this designation, and the length is usually indicated as the main size. This information allows you to evaluate the "weight category" of the product as a whole, as well as to determine whether it is suitable for a particular instrument of large sizes. At the same time, the characteristics usually indicate the overall dimensions on all three main sides (in millimetres), however, it is more convenient for many craftsmen to use the size designation in inches.

For kits (see below), this paragraph indicates the dimensions of all containers supplied in the kit.

Сompartments

The number of compartments and/or pockets provided in the design of the tool container (with the exception of organizers, including those built into the lid — for them the number of cells is indicated separately, see below).

The more compartments or pockets, the easier it is to keep numerous items in the container at the same time. On the other hand, more compartments (for the same product size) usually means smaller individual compartments. The most modest models have up to 10 compartments / pockets, in the most capacious this number can exceed 30. Of course, when choosing by this parameter, you should take into account the type of container (see above). So, for traditional boxes, the maximum value is actually 20 compartments, and among backpacks there are models with 20 – 30 compartments.

Sections

Design of movable sections mounted in a tool box or other container. A section is a separate movable unit, usually divided into several compartments (see above). The meaning of such blocks is to ensure the compactness of the container when folded and the convenience of access to the contents when unfolded. The types of sections can be as follows:

Sliding. Sections located at the top of the container and also playing the role of a cover for its lower part. Typically, such sections are made in pairs or quadruples, 2 pairs each, and when opened, in accordance with the name, they diverge in different directions, allowing you to get to the space below them. This variety is found mainly in boxes (see "Type").

Retractable. Sections that slide out of the inner volume of the container are like drawers in a desk or kitchen table. This design is used in organizers and trolleys(see "Type").

Organizer slots

The number of individual cells provided in the organizer. In this case, we can talk about an organizer as a separate device (see "Type"), or a set of cells built into the lid of the box (see "Lid with an organizer"). And for solutions with removable partitions, in which cells can be combined, the maximum number is indicated — with all installed partitions.

Organizers, by definition, are designed mainly for small things. Therefore, the more cells there are, the more varieties of small items can be stored in a container. For example, in 10 cells you can keep bolts of five different sizes and separately nuts for them. Such a number of compartments — up to 10 — is generally considered small, but in fact it is often quite enough. 11 – 20 cells can be called an average, and the most capacious organizers have up to 30 compartments. However it is worth considering that with the same dimensions of the container, an increase in the number of cells leads to a decrease in their volume.

Detachable organizer

The presence of a removable organizer, allows you to use it separately from the box. There are such cases mainly in models that have a lid with an organizer.

Detachable tray

The presence of a removable tray in the design of the container for tools (usually a box — see "Type").

The tray is an open platform — usually with recesses for easy placement of tools. On such a platform, you can lay out the items necessary for work, so that each time you do not climb deep into the box behind them; this is especially useful when tools need to be changed frequently during operation. And after hours, the tray is loaded into the box along with the tools, usually to the very bottom; in some models, the design of this “second bottom” is such that it can be quickly removed along with the entire contents of the box.
