Today DeWALT announced the national launch of its new rolling Metal Storage system for the automotive industry, contractors, and more.
The two products include a 36” 6-Drawer Top Chest, model DWMT73678, and a 36” 5-Drawer Roller Cabinet, model DWMT73679. Combined, the Top Chest and Roller Cabinet deliver up to 1,400 pound load capacity.
With these two new products, DEWALT is bringing its history of innovation and engineering excellence to reinvent the rolling Metal Storage product category.
After extensive end-user research, DEWALT has built the rolling Metal Storage system to feature auto-return closing drawers, 100-pound capacity ball bearing drawers, 200-pound capacity extra deep bottom drawer, and fully extendable drawers.
The Metal Storage products are designed to be durable and tough, and offer a new level of convenience and lots of storage room. The pull-out drawers are deep and large enough to store and organize an array of large tools. The top lid design provides enough clearance to allow a DEWALT 20 Volt Drill to stand with the lid closed. Knockouts in the back of the top lid allow power cords to run inside for battery charging, with the lid closed and locked.
The drawers on the Top Chest and Roller Cabinet feature100-pound auto-return drawer slides for heavy-duty storage capacity. Top and bottom keys are included for an internal locking mechanism with breakaway keys. Heavy-duty casters offer durability and easy movement.
The Top Chest provides 9,096 cubic inches of storage space with 10-3/8” deep top that stores a variety of power tools and hand tools for easy access. Specially designed gas lid stays offer smooth opening and closing to the top lid, as well as hold the lid open.
The Roller Cabinet features 12,896 cubic inches of storage space. An extra deep 12” bottom drawer offers additional storage with 200 pound capacity.
The 36” 6-Drawer Top Chest retails for $249.99 and the 36” 5-Drawer Roller Cabinet retails for $349.99 in June 2014 at Home Depot and Independent Retailers. Also available in a 52” 8-drawer Top Cabinet $599.99 and 9-drawer Roller Cabinet 699.99 at Canadian Tire, Home Depot online, and independent retailers.
Competing Metal Storage systems retail for more than $1,000 and do not include the patented DEWALT Metal Storage features of auto-return closing drawers, 100-pound capacity ball bearing drawers, 200-pound capacity extra deep bottom drawer, and fully extendable drawers.

I saw these on one of the top selves at my Home Depot just yesterday! Not for sale yet.
Those look very nice. The roller is on HD’s site, $349 doesn’t sound like a bad price at all. The chest is on there too, and the $249 doesn’t sound bad at all either. Damn, those might be something I’d actually buy if I hadn’t just got the Husky set from the garage sale…
Here they are at my local Home Depot….
What do you think of it now that you got your hands on it? Is it a quality piece? I don’t need it but I want it.

Some old man with an oxygen tank was standing like a foot behind me while I took pics, and jumped in front of me before I could open a drawer…..so that is basically as close as I got.
They look like nice boxes but they are bright.

You can also roll these into the living room when the power goes out and use them for emergency lighting.
Saw that at Home Depot. Very nice, but don’t think I have anymore room for a toolbox at this point.
Can’t wait till I can afford them there prices are not bad at all compared to other brands
I ordered two sets the other day when they come in i can check out the quality but with all the dewalt had tools i have i couldn’t put them in any other tool box lol
I got my hands all over these yesterday at the Depot. Man they are nice! I already have a big tool box and I can’t bring myself to getting these… just yet.
Just picked up the top box at 50% off because it was returned open, (buying $15K in shingles at the same time helped), but it is SWEET! Can’t wait to get my hands on the bottom.
Wow 50% man that was. Heck of a deal rick
grats man, that’s a very nice deal
