The picture dimensions show 49w18.5h15w(along the angled side)--While the description says 16x16x49 what are the correct sizes? Especially interested in the exterior width? front to back NOT along the angled sides.

Answer This Question

We would not recommend the Buyers Products 18 in. x 19 in. x 36 in. Matte Black Plastic Trail Tongue Tool Box as storage for a propane tank or any type of flammable unit. Yes, a hole could be cut into the inner liner, however this would harm the integrity of the box and be void to any warranty claims.

              Nice box poor shipping
              Box is great, more storage on the front of our camper. The shipping however was not came dented because it was shipped loose in a box with no additional padding. Fortunately we could straighten out the dent in the corner of the lid and restore functionality but a little effort on the part of the manufacturer would have prevented the issue.

                  I like the box. Pro It is light, seems rugged, adds lockable tool storage to the trailer and looks good, too. Con The bottom is very thin. It would be better if the box's bottom did not show light through. I do not know if the floor will tear out in time, since the box is mounted by the bottom and will be bounced while heavily loaded with items. My install preparation. To install - I strengthened the box bottom with a bottom liner cut from 1/2" chip board to insure a solid mounting. I next, sealed the chip board with thinned left over one part enamel garage floor paint. I thinned the floor paint to better penetrate, seal and toughen up the chip board. I put the prepped chip board in to the box bottom. Then, I cut and set in a piece of black rubber armor plate garage flooring. To finish, I will seal the edges of the box's floor with black RTV before drilling and bolting the box on to the trailer. That should complete the box install on the trailer. Overall, I am happy with the price and quality.

                    Great size for the price. I didn't want a metal box that would rust. I installed it on the trailer tonque with angle iron to inset it. After putting a battery, straps and few other items, the floor starting sagging. The floor could be stiffer but the rest of the box seems sturdy. I like the hasp to lock it.

                    The hasp and loop on the front of this box do not line up. The hasp will not fit over the loop unless the lid is lifted to allow the hasp to slide over the loop. If I have to lift the lid to lock it, that will let moisture into the box, which is not good. Obviously this box did not go through quality control or they simply don't give a darn about the quality of the products. Look at the last photo first, then the second photo and the first photo last.

                      Ideal storage box for a PWC trailer!
                      I installed this on a tandem PWC trailer to hold life jackets, tie-down straps, and other assorted accessories. Made of heavy-duty - but still lightweight - molded plastic, I don't have to worry about it rusting over what I'm sure will be a long lifetime. The bottom is water-tight (except where I drilled it for mounting, but a washer and a little caulk takes care of that) so I don't have to worry if I back the trailer in a bit too far and the lower couple of inches of the box are in the water. The lid has an over-hanging lip that keeps rainwater from leaking in. I've driven with it in the rain some and haven't seen any water leakage, but if I ever do a little weatherstripping should take care of that. Check out the included picture to see how I mounted it: I created a walk-about platform with synthetic decking (with some added support lumber where necessary) and then mounted the storage box on top. I used stainless steel fasteners and washers throughout to keep everything from rusting. As mentioned in the Home Depot "Product Overview" - and contrary to the "Details" section - this storage box *does* have a hasp for a padlock, so I can feel confident that my extra life jackets are secure when I'm out on the water. I am extremely pleased with my purchase. It was a great price, looks like it'll last forever, fits my trailer perfectly, and holds all my stuff! What more could I ask for?

                      Very decent for the price. Good for keeping things out of the bed and back seat of my truck Seems to keep water out. No mounting hardware included so you will have to spend some money to get it secured to your trailer. I used 4 square u bolts and sprayed flex seal around the holes I drilled to mount it to the frame of my trailer.
