Yukon Mini Tool Box
Our Yukon Mini Tool Box brings full-size durability to a space-saving 12-inch design. We built this compact organizer with the same heavy-duty steel construction that defines our larger models, making it ideal for technicians, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone working in tight quarters.
The powder-coated finish resists scratches and corrosion, while the reinforced piano hinge ensures smooth, reliable access to your tools for years of daily use. Whether you’re mounting it under a workbench, storing it in a service vehicle, or carrying it to job sites, this mini box delivers professional organization without compromising workspace.

Steel Construction & Protective Finish
We manufacture the Yukon mini tool box from 20-gauge cold-rolled steel, providing a rigid shell that protects your precision instruments and hand tools from impact damage. The powder-coated exterior finish undergoes a multi-stage application process that bonds the coating at the molecular level, creating a barrier against rust, chemicals, and abrasive materials commonly found in workshops and garages.
The reinforced piano hinge spans the full width of the lid, distributing stress evenly across the opening mechanism. This continuous hinge design eliminates the weak points found in two- or three-point hinge systems, maintaining alignment even after thousands of open-close cycles. Our 20-inch model uses the same hinge engineering scaled to larger dimensions.
Removable Tray & Interior Organization
The included lift-out tray measures 9 inches long by 3.5 inches wide, creating a dedicated space for drill bits, screwdriver tips, Allen keys, and other small components that otherwise scatter throughout a tool box. We designed the tray with raised edges to contain loose hardware when you remove it from the main compartment for bench-top access.
Beneath the tray, the lower compartment provides 4.5 inches of vertical clearance—enough depth for pliers, adjustable wrenches, voltage testers, and similar hand tools. The flat bottom surface allows you to stand tools upright or layer them horizontally depending on your collection.
Mounting & Portability Options
The yukon mini tool box ships with pre-drilled mounting holes on the bottom panel, spaced 10 inches apart to align with standard wall studs or workbench frames. We include template guidelines in the product packaging to simplify permanent installation when you want to free up floor or shelf space.
The integrated top handle uses a welded steel strap design rather than riveted attachments, eliminating a common failure point in portable tool storage. The handle clearance accommodates gloved hands, and the balanced weight distribution prevents the box from tipping when carried with the lid closed and tools loaded.

Common Questions About the Yukon Mini Tool Box
The interior compartment measures 10.5 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 4.5 inches deep when the removable tray is lifted out. The tray itself is 9 inches long, 3.5 inches wide, and 1.5 inches deep.
These dimensions provide 189 cubic inches of total storage volume, suitable for 15-20 hand tools plus small hardware and accessories.
Yes, the Yukon mini tool box includes pre-drilled mounting holes on the bottom panel, spaced 10 inches apart to align with standard 16-inch stud centers. We provide a paper template in the packaging to help you mark drill locations accurately.
Use 1/4-inch lag bolts or wood screws (not included) when mounting to wooden surfaces. For metal workbenches, we recommend self-tapping screws or machine bolts with backing plates.
Our powder-coated finish resists common workshop chemicals including motor oil, brake fluid, gasoline, and most solvents. The multi-stage application process creates a molecular bond that won’t peel or chip under normal exposure.
For best longevity, wipe spills promptly with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged contact with battery acid or aggressive paint strippers, which can compromise any powder coating over time.
The side-mounted hasps accept any standard padlock with a 5mm (approximately 3/16-inch) diameter shackle. Both combination locks and keyed padlocks in this size will fit securely.
The hasp openings are positioned 1.25 inches apart when closed, so choose a padlock with a shackle clearance of at least 1.5 inches for easy installation.
The steel construction supports up to 20 pounds of tools and supplies when carried by the handle or mounted securely. The box itself weighs 3.2 pounds empty, so your total load including the box would be approximately 23 pounds.
Exceeding this capacity may stress the handle welds or hinge pin over time. For heavier tool collections, consider our 20-inch or 46-inch models, which are engineered for greater load capacity.
We back the Yukon mini tool box with a two-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This includes the steel body, hinge assembly, latch mechanism, and powder coating.
The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, overloading, or normal wear from daily use. Contact our customer service team with your order number if you experience any manufacturing defects during the coverage period.
The yukon mini tool box features a weather-resistant design with an overlapping lid that protects contents from rain, dust, and workshop debris. While it’s not submersible or waterproof, the tight-fitting lid (less than 1/16-inch gap) prevents moisture infiltration during typical outdoor use.
For long-term outdoor storage, we recommend placing the box under cover or applying occasional machine oil to the hinge to prevent moisture accumulation in the pin mechanism.
