Key Features
Overview
The Klein Tools MODbox Three Drawer Rolling Toolbox (54890MB) is the rolling base of a MODbox mobile workstation. This is a three-drawer rolling toolbox designed for electricians and trades who move a lot of gear across jobsites and want drawers they can open without unstacking the boxes on top. It carries up to 250 lb (113.4 kg) as a system and rolls on 10" (25.4 cm) rubber wheels.
The drawer layout is built around how tools actually get packed. The large lower drawer fits bulky power tools and carries up to 30 lb; the two compact top drawers hold accessories, batteries and smaller items at up to 20 lb each, for a box capacity of 70 lb (31.8 kg). Every drawer stays accessible with other MODbox boxes stacked on top. Drawers run on heavy-duty, full-extension ball-bearing slides, and 24 removable dividers let you set up compartments your way. Total storage is 3,577 cubic inches (58,649 cu cm).
Security is handled at three levels. A locking bar secures the drawers during transport and stores in the box base when not in use. A steel-reinforced locking latch helps prevent tool theft and accepts padlocks with a 5/16" or smaller shackle. To lock down the whole stack, run a cable lock through the 3/8" steel-reinforced lock location and the open wheel system.
Mobility comes from the 10" rubber wheels and a removable metal telescoping handle. The handle extends to 44" (111.8 cm), collapses to 27" (68.6 cm), and comes off entirely for tight spaces; without it, the box stands 16-1/2" (41.9 cm) tall. Footprint is about 21-3/16" x 22-5/16" (53.8 x 56.6 cm), and the empty box weighs 44.5 lb (20.2 kg).
As a MODbox piece, it has built-in side rails for MODbox attachments, a top that accepts stacking MODbox boxes, and back storage. Drawers and latch are impact-resistant polymers. Klein lists it as not weather resistant, so keep it in the trailer or under cover overnight.
Who should buy it: electricians and service techs building a MODbox system, and anyone who wants rolling drawer storage that keeps power tools, batteries and accessories organized and locked between job sites.

Pro Tip
Pack the heaviest power tools in the lower drawer and keep batteries in a top drawer. Weight low on the wheels keeps the whole stack stable when you tip it back to roll, especially with boxes stacked on top.
