Was looking at this box and another on the tool truck, for this same size the tool guy wanted $8k on sale. Decided to try this based on the reviews and I'm glad I did. Slides are super sturdy, probably better than my Snappy master series box. I constantly sit in one of the drawers. Its the second largest box in the dealership,the other cost over $20k. I have about 6 empty drawers that i don't know how to fill. The only downsides, which at this price I couldn't care less, are the stainless top's texture isn't ideal for full time work, although does look amazing all cleaned up. And the metal is a bit thinner than my other box preventing me from magnetizing anything heavy to the side, there is plenty of space inside for it all though, and beyond that I don't see why the metal needs to be any thicker. I'm not planning on hitting it with a car. So, in all, I love this box and am much happier with it than I was with my little Snappy box, which i paid more for on sale. If I ever grow out of my home box I'll be sure to buy another one of these.

The quality of this toolbox just blew me away. I shopped for several months at big box stores an none of their products came close to matching the quality and finish of the tool vault. Do yourself a favor. Save thousands over snap on tool boxes and pick yourself up one of these. You will not regret it.

I am a full time automotive technician and work on anything and everything. I have been needing a new tool box for a long time. I had a small double stack tool box.I like to keep everything organized but it got to the point where i had tools just piled in the drawers because i didn't have enough room. I had been looking at all the stores and saw some in the tool truck sales flyers. But they were either to flimsy or to expensive. I couldn't afford to spend 12 grand on a tool box. So i started looking online, I came across strictly tool boxes while searching for alternate brands of toolboxes. I looked at the Extreme Tools 72" and the Montezuma 72" for a long time. I wanted a nice big box so I would have plenty of room for more tools in the future. I also wanted a box with a nice stainless steel top so i could use it as a work bench. I was nervous about buying a box off the internet since I had never seen either brands in person. I finally had enough money so I called and talked to one of the guys at strictly tool boxes. I asked him all the questions I had and after talking to him and reading all the reviews I decided to go with the Montezuma Elite 72". I ordered it and received it a week later. I was nervous about the whole inspection thing because I thought the driver might not let me look at it. But when it was dropped off the driver was nice and said I could check it out while he went and closed up his truck. I got it mostly opened and the driver helped me take the box off the top. He was really impressed, he said you don't see tool boxes built like that everyday. He was also impressed with the crate. It was on a pallet with quarter inch ply wood all around it then a really thick box and a giant plastic bag. It would have had to be really mishandled to get damaged. Everything looked good so I signed the bill. I installed the alternate detents because the one that came on it were so stiff I could hardly open the drawers. Once I installed the new detents they were still stiff but better. I switched all my tools over and had quite a few empty drawers left it was really nice to have extra room. I had a problem with the locks, there were two different locks and only the right key for one of them. So I called right away and told them what was wrong and they overnighted me a new lock and key so both locks would match and i could use the same key. I am very impressed with the box it is very sturdy I have actually used a drawer for a chair and didn't even phase it. My one complaint and the reason I gave it 4 stars on quality was the stainless steel top has a real small checker board texture on it. So the top is really hard to clean because stuff gets caught in the squares. Other then that I love my box and if I had to do it over again I would definitely buy it again. The drawers have gotten easier to close as I have used them more. I have been telling all the guys at work where I got it and they were all really impressed especially when I told them the price. One guy said he might even get one. Thank you very much Strictly Tool Boxes you guys do an awesome job and saved me a lot of money.

I own a auto body shop so I decided to upgrade my old Mxxxx toolbox. My other techs have nice Cxxxxxx tool box and sxxx-ox toolbox and when you see them your first impression is “wow, look at those nice tool boxes”. They were very impressive from my point of view and they did bring some class to my shop when they brought their tool boxes in. That is when I wanted a upgrade both sxxx-ox and cxxxxxxxx said I have this tool box for $5700 but it was not as big as the Montezuma. Cxxxxxxx said I can get you a similar toolbox for around $4200. I looked at both of them and the toolboxes were pretty sharp nice colors the only thing that they lacked was the amount of drawers and the size of the drawers also the nice color the toolbox is. That is when my mind was made up to get me the Montezuma. When my toolbox came and we unpacked it you could just see the look in techs eyes when we got it all unpacked and put the handles on the beautiful toolbox. The first words out their mouths were “How Much did you pay for this?”. Later that day my one tech said to the sxxx-ox man “I wanna try and sell my toolbox”. That put a smile on my face when I heard it. I love this toolbox - plenty of room, nice and big, color is great, the quality is top notch, and customer service is right on point. I had to give a key to my son called them up and without question they sent me 2 keys free of charge. My experience with strictly tool boxes has been a good one. Great company to do business with! Way to go guys! I'm already setting up to make my next buy. A side cabinet and hutch. Now when customers come in they see my toolbox first out of the other 3 toolboxes. My toolbox is the real eye catcher! Thanks STB. PS . I almost forgot when sxxx-ox saw it the first thing he said was that it was not good quality. Our boxes are painted on the inside and most boxes you get online are just painted on the outside and the bearings are junk as well. Being the Asshole I am I said “Really?” in front of a shop full of people “Lets see.” we walked over to my toolbox and I pulled out the top draw and checked with my flash light. I said “Looks all painted to me!” then I went and stepped into the bottom draw and said push the draw in and out while I was standing in it again without any problems drawer worked great! I weigh 260 pounds. That sure shut him up.
Residential Addresses: All residential deliveries will require a delivery appointment.
Commercial Addresses: A delivery appointment is not required, but is highly recommended to ensure a proper inspection by responsible personnel.
*If you do not schedule a delivery appointment, your freight carrier will arrive without notice with your toolbox, and expect that you will be present for inspection.
This step is usually performed directly after your shipping notification is received.
2. PREPARE YOUR RECEIVING AREA
To make the inspection process go as smoothly as possible, please have the tools listed below available as soon as the carrier reaches the delivery point:
LARGE FLAT-HEAD SCREWDRIVER, PRY BAR or CLAW HAMMER
BOX CUTTER
WORK GLOVES
CAMERA or SMARTPHONE CAMERA
ASSISTANT (RECOMMENDED)
CELL PHONE**
Freight carrier drivers typically have 7 – 15 minutes to make a delivery; freight drivers are under no obligation to offer assistance.
3. INSPECT THE OUTER PACKAGING
Use your CAMERA to photograph any damage, and take notes. Examples of damage include, but are not limited to:
BOX CAVING IN, BENT TRIM
HOLES OR TEARS IN CARDBOARD
HOLES CREATED BY A FORKLIFT
ANY EXPOSED METAL
DAMAGE TO BASE
“NO-STACK” CONE ON CARDBOARD PACKAGING IS DESTROYED OR MISSING
In most cases, the outer packaging may display minor damage from general shipping conditions. Any marks or damage on the packaging you see, no matter how trivial, is enough to warrant a complete inspection of your tool box.
If you see any damage at this point,
STOP
NOTE THE DAMAGE ON THE BILL OF LADING and CONTINUE YOUR INSPECTION
***If possible, write on the bill of lading yourself. If the driver insists on being the one to write on the bill of lading, initial their notes showing that you agree with them. If you do not agree with the driver’s notes, DO NOT sign the bill of lading.***
4. UNFASTEN CRATE
Wearing your WORK GLOVES, start with the top panel of the crate
Bend the metal tabs upward in the direction of the slot, straighten the tabs with PLYERS if needed
Remove the top portion of the crate
5. REMOVE PACKAGING
Continue bending the metal tabs, and remove each panel in sequence until the inner packaging is exposed
Lift the cardboard box off, and remove remaining inner packaging and plastic liner
Preserve all packaging and set aside
6. INSPECT TOOLBOX
Inspect your toolbox on each side thoroughly for any dents or scratches
Inspect the powder coat and frame to detect scratches or dents that are less visible
Take clear photos and notes of all damage
If you see any damage at this point,
STOP
CALL US IMMEDIATELY AT: 888.289.1952
DO NOT SIGN FOR THE DELIVERY
UNTIL WE WALK YOU THROUGH HOW TO REFUSE THE DAMAGED ITEM(S)
**this is necessary for your protection in the event of freight damage
7. SIGN FOR YOUR SHIPMENT*
You may sign the bill of lading once the shipment you are accepting has been inspected and declared perfect condition by your own best judgement.
When you sign the bill of lading, you are signing an agreement with the freight company that states that you or an authorized representative has thoroughly inspected the shipment.
Once signed, you agree that you have received the shipment without damage. This agreement also waives any rights to file a freight claim.
*If you have refused the delivery due to damage, YOU MUST call StrictlyToolBoxes.com immediately at 888.289.1952

Tool Vault®
With 20 years experience in the professional automotive tool and equipment industry, we have seen many companies come and go. It is our commitment to providing the highest quality products and outstanding customer service that ensures our company stands out from the rest.
Strictly Tool Boxes chooses to work with only a few tool box manufacturers because they have proven their ability to deliver a high quality product at a fair price. We have removed many vendors from our site for various reasons. The primary reason we stopped working with certain manufacturers was low product quality.
We are certain many of you have noticed the trend for tool box manufacturers to make the products with thinner steel every year. For certain light duty home applications, these lower end products may work fine. However, for the automotive professional or a serious do-it-yourselfer, we found that these products cannot hold up.
If you have questions regarding products, or if you do not see the brand you have questions about on our site, give us a call at 888.289.1952. Because of our vast experience in the professional automotive tool and equipment business, we have seen and worked with most brands currently on the market. We will be happy to help in whatever way we can.
Delivery Time
Most orders will leave the warehouse in 1 – 3 business days. Your new toolbox will deliver by freight truck and the average transit times vary by location from 2 – 6 business days.
Please note that all residential deliveries will require a delivery appointment.
For standard delivery times in your local area, please contact Strictly Tool Boxes at 888.289.1952.
Free Freight
Free shipping applies only to our standard shipping services. Standard shipping does not include lift gate fees that can be associated with shipping larger items by freight truck.
Free freight promotions apply to the contiguous* US only.
Do I need Lift Gate Delivery?
Lift gate delivery will be needed if you do not have access to a loading dock or fork lift. If lift gate service is added the freight company will deliver your order with a special trailer that has a hydraulic lift to safely lower your new toolbox from the back of the semi-trailer to ground level.
