      Q:How come my box didn't come with a gasket, netting, nor shelves?
      by|Oct 6, 2023
      1 Answer
      Answer This Question

      A:  This box does not come with a weather strip, as the overlapping lid design is specifically engineered for weather resistance and prevents rain, sleet, snow, etc. from entering the storage box. The netting and shelves are no longer available for the box. This design was approved by Home Depot.

        poorly built
        Welding work is really sub par for the cost. Sharp metal pieces all over welded areas.

          Poor quality
          Horribly put together. Missing weather proofing. Wayyyyyyyy overpriced for the quality. Does the job I guess

          Light duty
          The 60x24 box is not secure enough for outside storage. Bought it for the jobsite and it is going to have to stay in the shop. Thin steel, bad welds- it would probably fold open with a pry bar. I have other Greenlee and Klein boxes and this thing belongs in a kids bedroom full of stuffed animals. Tiny single bolt is all that secures the lock.

            Great place to store your stuff
            My garage is running out of space, I wanted to move some of my tools outside. Very heavy, hard to carry. The handles are not that useful to me and take up a lot of storage. Have not seen any moisture inside the box. Seems weatherproof. If I had to do it over again, I would get a wider box to store longer items I don't want the kids getting access to. I received this box for free to write this review.

            REALLY heavy duty storage
            I needed a way to store tools in areas of my ranch where they could be stolen without my knowledge. I can use this box down near the highway without worrying that the tools will disappear. This box is weather tight and made of heavy steel. Once it is locked with padlocks it would take real perseverance to remove the contents. I plan on bolting the box down just to make sure that no one can pick up the entire box and contents and haul it off. In addition to the anti theft aspects of the box I can leave tools where I am working and not have to worry about them getting wet.

            Perfect Jobsite Storage Box!
            Ridgid always makes quality tools and boxes, and this one is no exception. The box is sturdy and heavy. It is not the largest one Ridgid makes, but it has plenty of room for tools and hardware. It also has 2 u-bolts that attach to each end to enable locks to be added for secure storage outside. The lid is heavy but easy to open and close. Overall, this a solid multipurpose storage box

            Sturdy, Roomy, Lockable, and it has skid loader holes
            My original plan was for a place to consolidate my cordless tools. I was surprised by the roominess and sturdiness of this storage box. As stated in it's description it is designed for on site usage. That being said, it has the capability of being bolted into a truck bed and also has skid tube fittings on the bottom for easy loading in a truck. It also has fold out handles on each side in case you don't have a skid handy. Other features are that it can be locked and has a protected opening for running an electrical cord into the box to charge batteries etc. There are places for two padlocks on the front. The lid is designed to not slam shut...it can be opened partially and will remain open without support.

            great for garage and its portable
            Rigid model RB32 Jobsite Storage Box. This is a powder coated Job Box, 32” wide x 15” tall x 19” deep. The job box’s feet add another 4” to it’s height. It has a piano hinge and a lockable lid that closes over a raised lip on the box that makes the Job Box resistant to weather. It has an arm that can be pushed down in the middle to prevent the lid being closed accidently such as by a puff of wind. It can be set in the back of a pickup truck or a trailer. It can be locked using 2 padlocks (not included); the pad locks need to measure 7/8” to 1” between the body of the pad lock and the inside of the shackle. I like it because it is a lockable personal tool size box that is great for shared workspaces.

            Home Depot needs to have a long talk with Ridgid/Knaack about these boxes
            When I finally saw that these were in stock at a HD an hour away..I thought..."Why not?"...They had plenty in stock. Easy to load and the price was right. That's about all that went right was the service. First off, it looks like Knaack(they make these boxes in Mexico BTW) uses "learning welders". There's no way any company lets a product ship with the kind of issues this box had and not know it. The welds are a little over done. Spatter isn't that terrible. The welds are the real issue with this box. The right lock bar that hold the lock in place when its locked were welded onto the wrong place. One was bent to the right and a 1/4 inch in the wrong direction. The hook part that locks the Lock in place hits the lock box where the padlock goes. Easy to tell cause you can see where it takes the paint right off. The left side Lock Box was welded into the right place but "forward" of where it needed to be...The hook part scrubs the front of the Lock Box and just takes the paint right off of both. With time I imagine it will wear itself down to a non-issue. You'd think these welders would have a template to go by. Tape it to the metal...mark it with a sharpie then remove the template and go from there. I guess not. The right Lock Box was welded crooked. Both were too "long" for both locks to lock correctly. I fixed that issue with using Paclock locks for Ridgid boxes and some high density plastic to shore them up. 1/16 inch pieces to be exact...I had to put the plastic behind the lock hasp and then tighten them down for the locks to lock correctly. It did work though and have had 0 issues since. In the middle of the box...on the outside there are 2 points that are very sharp...I mean sharp....Even with paint on them. Be careful with that. Paint job is good....no issues with the vanity of the box. There is spatter but they just paint right over it...inside there's some sorta liquid that dried in the creases and they just painted over that to..not a big deal though. My dilemna at the time was do I spend $300 on this Ridgid box or spend $550 on a Knaack. That was an EZ answer cause I didn't have the extra $250 to spend. Would I do it again? Yeah...because I can take the time to fix the issues this box gave me without having to break the bank. I can't tell you how close I was to driving this box back and trying to find one at HD to replace it....we're talking 120+ miles there and back...but I didn't...I tried masterlock 5 series locks and the just wouldn't fit right. I did a little research and found these Paclock's and it really saved me time and stress of having to deal with a long drive and hassle of a return. I'm a staunch Ridgid tool customer and love the tool line and the LSA. I've had no issues with any of my Ridgid power tools....but...Read the negative reviews in here and heed the warnings on this box. It's a crap shoot you'll get an acceptable one. Either that or just rig it up like I did and move on with life. pictures attached
