I was looking for something to carry several different sizes of fasteners and other hobby related items outside where I fly rockets and airplanes. The chance of a toolbox getting knocked over or dropped or just falling over on uneven ground is greater than if you are just using it in your garage or basement.
The Lift-n-Lok works exactly as it says and fits my purposes very well. Everything I need fits in it and with just one movement the entire box is locked with no chance of things moving from compartment to compartment.
At first I thought the price was a little high but the old adage, “you get what you pay for” seems to fit here. This is a very high quality case. The drawers feel like they are on bearings and work very smoothly unlike most other plastic storage cases.
The only drawback I can find is that the size of the diameter of the handle is too large. It would be more comfortable to carry if trhe handle were a little smaller. The reason for the size may be the locking mechanism that it operates.
Great box. I’m thinking of buying another.

I’m using this as a field box for RC Aircraft and it’s everything the manufacturer says it is. The top section is deep enough to hold a Sullivan starter w/power pack along with a radio if you’re not concerned with it (radio) shifting around with room to spare. The video gives a very good description. The drawers lock as shown just insure they are fully closed, and it’s made in the *U*S*A – not Communist China!

This is the kind of amazingly simple and wonderfully utilitarian device that you realize you coulda, shoulda, thought of it yourself.
This is going to be brief–
As a retired metal trades craftsman, I wish I’d had a toolbox like this when I was carrying one every day. I begrudge you smart folks who buy one of these all the hours you’re going to save not having to pick up/resort your mixed parts and tools either because a latch failed or you simply forgot to latch or latched improperly. And I’m not sure, but I also think this box is going to reduce the incidence of jammed drawers–maybe even eliminate them.
I can’t believe anybody who buys one of these would ever have reason to regret it.

It seems to be a good tool box. I like how the drawers lock once the handle is raised. I would recommend it to others.

I purchased this tool box to store my cake decorating tools, icing bags and decorating tips in. Most boxes made for this purpose did not suite my needs. This is the perfect box for me. Drawers store my decorating tips, paste color bottles and other small items, while the larger top box stores all my other larger tools of the trade. Perfect box for the cake decorator.

I use my box as a sewing box. The box I have is grey and pink. The specs for all the sizes of each drawer, the top part, and even the individual compartments can be found at their website pdysystems.com/tool_tech-info.php. I used these specs to help determine if the box would fit in the space I had alloted for it, as well as the size I had available for holding boxes of thread, bobbins, etc inside of it. The specs can be a bit misleading, however. The inside of the cover and the upper unit have angled “fins” of the same molded plastic material, I am sure for extra reinforcement. These fins take up about an inch of space inside under the handle, as well as a half-inch to inch within the upper unit part. These annoyed me, as I needed that extra space to hold thread boxes. So, little modifier that I am, I snipped them out! (There goes the warranty…) The box is now perfect for me in every way, and the strength of the box has not been affected at all. If I were using the box as a tool box and lugging it around job sites, the extra reinforcement might be needed, but not for my purposes. All of my sewing supplies are now in one box: thread, needles, scissors, etc. and all remain segregated in their own little compartments. Love it!

I was looking a long time for a storage box that could hold my electronic cigarette supplies. I wanted something with compartments for parts and a larger compartment to hold juice bottles. During my search I came across this tool box/organizer. I watched the video and was impressed by the style, the feminine color and the durability.
I decided to order it. Although I wanted the lime green, I settled for the pink. I am very pleased with this product! They give you extra plastic slides so you can adjust the compartment sizes to your liking. I would highly recommend this product.

I went looking for an organizer for my woodshop a couple of weeks ago. I turn pens and I needed something to keep things organized. Between pen kits, bushing, drill bits, turning sleeves, etc, everything went everywhere and I (of course) couldn’t find everything as I needed to.
I started looking at tackle boxes, but they were too small. Formal cabinets were more than I needed and I wanted to be able to swing my organizer out of the way once I found what I needed. I found the PDY on Amazon (where I find most things) and only got interested when I watched the video. I usually don’t watch the videos, but this one told a good story and it sold me immediately.
The PDY system was just what the doctor ordered. Its big and its three drawers are roomey and deep and (best of all) they lock without items spilling across compartments. I’m not sure that I’d try to keep liquids separated in them (no, I’m not suggesting you try…) but they are very adequate even for very small nuts, screws and bolts. The upper compartment (that’s a lid if you can’t tell from the picture) is deep and well organized.
I’m very pleased with my purchase. I believe you will be too if you buy it.

A well thought out design. Plastic shows no signs of “warpage” or “shrinkage” so common in the Big box boxes.
I Needed a toolbox to use as a field box for my rc planes, the PDY systems box far exceeded my expectations, I am able to put even most of my bench tools in. The drawers are sized intelligently and come with extra dividers. the upper section is large enough to hold my field charger, batteries, lunch, with room to spare.
I’m trying to come up with an excuse to my wife to buy another one….;p

I can’t be happier than I am with the PDY Systems Lift-n-Lok tool box. It does everything that it claims. The tool box is the perfect size to carry everything I need. I have been a design mechanical engineer for over 20 years and this is one of those things that I wished I had thought of myself. I am able to carry everything and more for every task that I do. I am always fixing things and working on my hobbies and my tool box goes with me every where I go. I have dropped my old tool box spilling everything multiple times because the lid wasn’t latched. This tool box will not let me do that again. And even if I drop the whole thing the contents inside stay put. I have bragged on my tool box many times. If you are concerned about the box being plastic, don’t be. This tool box isn’t cheaply made and is very robust. This will be the last tool box that I will ever have to buy and I couldn’t be happier with it. I highly recommend this to all my friends. You won’t be disappointed.
