Draper Tool Chest, 8 Drawer, 40"

For workshops that demand wide-format storage with the capacity to match, the Draper TC8D/40 8-Drawer Tool Chest delivers a commanding 40-inch wide storage solution that sits perfectly atop the Draper RC11D/40 roller cabinet to form a complete, professional-grade workshop setup. Built from heavy-gauge sheet steel with a durable powder-coated finish and smart aluminium effect trim, the TC8D/40 combines serious capacity with a clean, professional appearance.

All eight drawers run on precision ball bearing runners for smooth, consistent operation — making it effortless to access your tools even when drawers are fully loaded. The TC8D/40's mixed drawer configuration is thoughtfully designed to handle a comprehensive range of tools and storage needs. Three full-width standard drawers offer generous, unobstructed space for longer hand tools such as spanners, wrenches, and screwdrivers, while three half-width standard drawers are ideally proportioned for sockets, drill bits, hex keys, and other smaller accessories that benefit from finer separation.

For bulkier or heavier items, one full-width deep drawer and one half-width deep drawer provide substantially more depth — ideal for power tool accessories, heavy-duty equipment, and larger workshop essentials that simply won't fit in a standard drawer. This balance of drawer types gives the TC8D/40 a versatility that makes it well suited as a primary tool chest for a fully equipped professional workshop.

Heavy-duty carry handles ensure the chest can be repositioned or transported when needed, and a secure integral locking system with two keys keeps your tools protected when unattended. At 1051mm wide, 405mm deep, and 552mm high, the TC8D/40 is purpose-built to sit on top of the RC11D/40 roller cabinet — together forming the impressive DTKTC8D/RC11D combined unit — while also performing equally well as a standalone workshop chest in its own right.
