Tekton announced new 21-drawer tool storage combos, in black and red.
Tekton’s aren’t regular ball bearing tool cabinets and chests – they have heavy duty carriage-type drawers, each with a load capacity of 400 lbs at full extension.
The company launched new upper tool chests earlier this year, and are now offering a bundle with their 60″ rolling cabinet.
The cabinet frame has a depth of 30″, and the chests have a frame depth of 18″. This leaves some room for your work on the cabinet’s top surface.
This bundle, which Tekton describes as their most complete tool cabinet system, comes with the following:
- 11-drawer 40/60 split bank 60″ x 30″ tool cabinet ($4,750)
- 5-Drawer 36″ x 18″ Upper Tool Cabinet ($1,700)
- 5-Drawer 24″ x 18″ Upper Tool Cabinet ($1,500)
- Stainless Steel Top 60″ x 30″ ($495)
This all adds up to $8,445. The 4pc combo is priced at $8,145, which seems to reflect savings of $300.
Each price includes free freight shipping, and so I’m guessing that Tekton’s passing on the discount from being able to ship the 4pc combo together.
As I gushed about in my post about Tekton’s cabinet system, their website provides full details about the drawer dimensions.
They provide detailed dimensions for the fully assembled combo as well.
Tekton’s tool storage products are extremely well-built. I still have a test sample on-site, and thoroughly enjoy using it. The carriage-based drawer system isn’t for everyone or all user needs, but it can hold a lot more tools and equipment than any and every ball bearing drawer I’ve ever seen or tested.
Adding to my opinion about how this style of tool storage is not suitable for all users or needs, I should also point out that Tekton offers a risk-free 90-day trial.
Tekton has always offered their tool storage cabinets, work surfaces, and now chests individually. It’s not a big deal that they now have a 4-piece combo with the roller cabinet, 2 chests, and a work top, but it seemed noteworthy.
If you were thinking of buying a fully-loaded combo, the new setup saves you a little money.
One of the things I like about Tekton is that they’re willing to try new things. Their website shows a couple of each combination system in stock, and so this could be an experiment to see if bundles are popular.
