BUNKER van storage comes with a standard 12-month warranty, which is extended to 10 years when you register your product online within 28 days of purchase. This comprehensive warranty covers manufacturing defects and structural issues with the steel body, drawers, and locking mechanisms. Please note that it does not cover "fair wear and tear," accidental damage, or modifications. Registration is essential to ensure your tool storage is protected for the long haul and to qualify for future services like replacement keys.

Yes, the BUNKER T2 and T3 storage boxes come equipped with adjustable feet as standard. This feature allows you to level the unit perfectly on uneven garage floors or rugged construction sites, ensuring the lid and locking mechanisms align correctly. 

Many UK insurance providers offer van insurance discounts for vehicles equipped with high-security storage. Because BUNKER products are Sold Secure and police-backed (Secured by Design), they meet the rigorous security standards insurers look for when reducing premiums.
As every insurer has different policies, we recommend contacting your provider to see how these certifications can lower your specific premium.

Yes, our van storage boxes securely fasten to your vans floor offering excellent protection against theft while keeping your tools well-organised. There are pre-drilled fixing points supplied.

A good van tool storage system provides two key benefits: organisation and protection. Keeping tools in dedicated storage makes it easier to find what you need, reducing the time spent searching through your van during a job. It can also prevent tools and equipment from moving around while you're driving.

Security is another important consideration. Leaving tools loose or unsecured in a van can make them more vulnerable to theft. Secure storage boxes can provide an additional layer of protection by keeping equipment enclosed and secured to the vehicle.

BUNKER's van storage range is designed specifically for this purpose, combining robust steel construction with security features designed to help protect tools in your vehicle.

For heavy tools and equipment, choose a van storage solution made from robust materials and designed to be securely fixed to the vehicle. Larger storage boxes offer greater capacity for bulky equipment and help keep heavier tools contained and organised.

Most products in the BUNKER van storage range are suitable for storing heavy tools and equipment. However, the BUNKER S2 Slim Slider has a more compact design and is better suited to smaller hand tools, accessories and equipment where space is limited.

When choosing storage for heavier equipment, always check the product's recommended load capacity and make sure it is securely fixed to the vehicle.

There are several steps you can take to reduce the risk of tool theft from your van.

• Keep tools out of sight wherever possible.
• Lock your van whenever it is unattended.
• Use secure storage that is fixed to the vehicle.
• Avoid leaving expensive tools loose inside the van.
• Consider using a tracker on valuable equipment.
• Park in secure, well-lit areas where possible.
• Use additional vehicle security measures where appropriate.

A purpose-built security storage system can provide another important layer of protection. BUNKER van storage boxes are tested and certified by Sold Secure and Secured by Design, the official police security initiative, helping to provide confidence that your tools are stored in a robust, security-focused system.

BUNKER storage also includes discreet holders for Bluetooth trackers such as AirTags, allowing you to add a compatible tracker for additional peace of mind.

The most effective van organisation system is one that gives every tool and piece of equipment a designated place. Start by separating equipment into broad categories, such as power tools, hand tools, fixings and specialist equipment.

Van racking can help maximise vertical and available floor space, while storage boxes can keep larger groups of tools contained. BUNKER storage products can be securely fixed to the vehicle floor to create a more permanent and organised setup.

A simple structure can also make a significant difference. Keep your most frequently used tools in the most accessible storage area, with less frequently used equipment further towards the rear. Use smaller organisers or compartments for fixings and loose components, and consider dedicating individual storage boxes to different equipment types.

The goal is to create a system where you know where everything is before you need it.

We’ve partnered with Velocity to create a range of rugged tool bags designed to improve storage, style, and mobility for workers on the go. There are three tool bags to choose from – a backpack (33776), an open tote (33775) and a kit bag (33830). 

The standard warranty for the whole range is three years, which can be extended to five years if you register through our website here. 

The BUNKER x Velocity range is completely standalone, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a great addition to your existing BUNKER set up! These bags don’t physically attach to the rest of our range but instead act as an extension you can carry with you. 

BUNKER x Velocity bags are designed especially with tradespeople, mobile workers, and people constantly on the move in mind, providing a practical, durable and stylish solution for carrying tools, equipment and everyday essentials between jobs. 

Yes – all three bags are waterproof, fitted with marine-grade rivets, and feature multiple pockets for consistent, reliable use on any job.

No. Once drawers are added, a Load-Up stack is no longer IP65 rated. Standard Load-Up boxes are sealed and weather resistant, but drawer units aren’t due to small gaps around the drawers mean the unit can’t be fully sealed, so they aren’t watertight.

Load-Up 1 Drawer Tool Box
• 11" deep drawer

Load-Up 2 Drawer Tool Box
• Drawer 1: 3.5" deep drawer
• Drawer 2: 7" deep drawer

Load-Up 3 Drawer Tool Box
• All 3 drawers are 3.5" deep

The drawers extend fully, allowing access to the entire depth of the box.

Stackable tool storage is a modular system in which individual storage boxes can be securely stacked on top of one another to create a larger storage setup. Different boxes can provide drawers, compartments or general storage, allowing you to organise tools according to your requirements.

The BUNKER Load-Up system uses stackable storage boxes that can be combined to create a configuration suited to the tools you need to carry and store.

Stackable storage works by connecting individual storage units vertically, allowing multiple boxes to be transported or stored as a single system. This makes it possible to build a storage setup around the tools you actually use rather than relying on one fixed-size box.

The BUNKER Load-Up system includes different box sizes and configurations, allowing users to combine drawers and storage boxes to create a setup suited to their equipment.

Modular stackable storage offers several benefits:

• Flexible configuration – build a setup around your tools.
• Better organisation – separate different types of tools and equipment.
• Efficient use of space – stack units vertically rather than spreading storage across the floor.
• Portability – move multiple storage units together when required.
• Expandable storage – add units as your tool collection grows.

A system such as BUNKER Load-Up is particularly useful for tradespeople and professionals who need to transport, organise and access different types of tools.

Yes. Stackable storage can be configured to accommodate both power tools and hand tools, although it is generally better to organise them into separate compartments or drawers where possible.

For example, larger storage boxes can accommodate power tools, while drawer units can be used for hand tools, accessories, fixings and smaller equipment. Separating tools by type makes it easier to find what you need and helps prevent smaller items from becoming lost underneath larger equipment.

Accessories vary depending on the stackable storage system and can include drawers, storage boxes, organisers, transport solutions and other components designed to make the system easier to configure and move.

The BUNKER Load-Up range includes various stacking boxes and drawer configurations, as well as a Load-Up Dolly that allows compatible storage units to be moved more easily.

The maximum load capacity depends on the specific BUNKER Load-Up product. As a guide:

• BUNKER Load-Up Stacking 3 Drawer Tool Box, 570mm: 50kg maximum load
• BUNKER Load-Up Stacking 2 Drawer Tool Box, 570mm: 50kg maximum load
• BUNKER Load-Up Stacking 1 Drawer Tool Box, 570mm: 50kg maximum load
• BUNKER Load-Up Rolling Tool Box, 340mm: 68kg maximum load
• BUNKER Load-Up Stacking Tool Box, 230mm: 45kg maximum load

The BUNKER Load-Up Drawer Stacking System (5 Piece) includes the Load-Up Dolly and has a maximum system load capacity of 280kg.

Always check the individual product specifications before loading your storage system and avoid exceeding the stated maximum capacity.

Modular storage typically refers to customisable and flexible storage systems designed to organise, store, and transport tools and equipment.

A modular storage system consists of individual storage units that can be combined in different configurations to suit your needs and requirements. BUNKER® is leading the way with smart modular storage solutions suitable for any environment.

BUNKER® standalone units come fully assembled with all necessary fittings and instruction manuals for easy installation. Our modular storage systems are delivered on pallets and require two people for handling due to their heavy construction.

The 1 door (33165) and 2 door (33166) tall floor cabinet, plus the wall cabinet (33162). The rest of the BUNKER® modular individual units are bolted together with either a worktop, back panel or wall bracket.

Modular Side Wall Double Brackets (33198) go in-between each unit to fix the back panel/pegboard, whereas the Modular Side Wall Single Brackets (33197) only go on the end of your back panel/pegboard.

You can build a BUNKER® with just the floor units and the wall cabinets. The wall cabinets are bolted to the wall, so you do not need a back panel/pegboard if you don’t want one. However, you do need a worktop because it holds the floor units together.

All sizes, dimensions and weights are approximate and subject to reasonable accepted manufacturing tolerances.

Yes, we have a range of spare parts, from ball-bearing runners and bolts to wheels.

They come pre-built. Remember to add on your worktops separately if you’re building BUNKER® your way and not choosing a pre-determined combination.

When installing a corner unit, you need to be aware of the units that are either side and consider the clearance when opening drawers and doors. 
Products that can’t be either side of a corner unit are the tall floor cabinets (33166) and (33165).

Yes, the locks and keys are the same on the modular storage units, roller cabinets, workstations etc..

Yes you can.

The maximum load per drawer or shelf varies from product to product. Modular storage units range from 22.7kg for a wall cabinet and base unit, to 36.4kg for a cupboard.

For roller cabinets, the maximum load per single runner drawer is 50kg and 100kg per double runner drawer.

Please see the product pages for more information. 

Certain units need to be bolted to a wall and are secured using single and double wall brackets.

There is no single modular storage system that will suit every carpenter, as the right setup depends on the tools you use, the size of your workshop and how often you need to move your equipment. A combination of modular storage units can be particularly useful, allowing you to organise different types of tools separately while adapting your setup as your requirements change.

For a workshop, consider combining drawers or storage cabinets for hand and power tools with a dedicated workbench for measuring, assembly and other tasks. A modular system such as BUNKER's range can be configured around the way you work, giving you dedicated storage while keeping frequently used tools within easy reach.

Plumbers can benefit from a modular storage system that keeps essential hand tools, fittings and equipment organised without taking up unnecessary workshop space. If you work with a relatively small collection of tools, a compact modular storage setup may be more practical than a larger cabinet system.

Consider using smaller drawer units or tool storage boxes for frequently used tools and accessories, reserving larger storage for equipment used less often. The benefit of a modular system is that you can start with the storage you need and add to it as your tools and requirements grow.

Mechanics often work with a large variety of hand tools, specialist equipment and consumables, making a larger modular storage system particularly useful. A combination of drawers, cabinets and work surfaces can help separate tools by type while keeping them accessible during a job.

BUNKER's 25-piece modular storage systems are particularly suited to larger workshops, providing substantial storage capacity for mechanics with extensive tool collections. A larger setup can also help create dedicated areas for different types of equipment, reducing clutter and making tools easier to locate.

Start by considering what you need to store, how much space you have and how you use your tools. Think about the types and quantity of tools you own, how frequently you use them and whether your storage needs are likely to change.

Drawers are useful for smaller hand tools and accessories, while larger cabinets or storage units can accommodate bulkier equipment. If you regularly work on projects, a workbench can provide a dedicated surface for assembly and repairs.

Modularity is particularly useful if your requirements may change over time. Rather than choosing a single large system immediately, you can build your setup around your current needs and add BUNKER storage units as your workshop grows.

The lifespan of a modular storage system depends on its construction, how frequently it is used, the weight it carries and how well it is maintained. Heavy-duty steel storage systems can provide many years of service when used within their recommended load capacities and properly maintained.

To maximise the lifespan of your storage, avoid exceeding weight limits, distribute heavy equipment evenly, and keep moving components, such as drawer runners, clean and free of debris.

Not at the moment, but watch this space.

1 tonne.

No, we do not.

The main difference is mobility and configuration. A tool chest is generally designed as a storage unit that sits on a work surface or another cabinet, while a roller cabinet is a larger floor-standing unit mounted on castor wheels.

Roller cabinets typically provide multiple drawers for organising tools and can be moved around a workshop when required. Some also incorporate a work surface, allowing the cabinet to double as a workstation.

For example, the BUNKER 15 Drawer Workbench Roller Tool Cabinet combines extensive drawer storage with an integrated worktop, providing both tool storage and a dedicated working area.

The best roller cabinet depends on the size of your tool collection, available workshop space and whether you need an integrated work surface. Professional workshops often benefit from larger cabinets with multiple drawers, robust construction, and ease of mobility.

The BUNKER 15 Drawer Workbench Roller Tool Cabinet is a practical option for professional workshops, combining 15 drawers for tool and equipment storage with a worktop that serves as a dedicated workbench. This allows one unit to provide both organised storage and working space.

Yes, many roller cabinets are designed with integrated locking systems to help secure tools when the cabinet is unattended.

BUNKER roller cabinets feature an integrated lock supplied with two keys, allowing you to secure the drawers and help prevent unauthorised access to your tools and equipment.

Roller cabinets can be moved around workshops, but they should ideally be positioned on a stable, reasonably level surface when in use or when heavily loaded.

BUNKER roller cabinets feature a sturdy steel handle and four castor wheels, making it easier to move the cabinet around your workshop and position tools where they are needed. Take care when moving a heavily loaded cabinet, particularly across uneven surfaces, thresholds or ramps.

The right workbench accessories depend on the type of work you carry out and how you use your workspace. Useful additions can include tool storage, trays and holders that keep frequently used equipment within easy reach.

BUNKER offers accessories, including an Adjustable Work Tool, Tool Tray, Document Holder and Hanging Tray. These can help keep your work surface organised while providing dedicated places for tools, documents and other frequently used items.

Protect your workbench by using suitable mats or protective surfaces when carrying out tasks that could scratch, dent or contaminate the worktop. Avoid dragging heavy equipment across the surface and clean up spills, dust and debris regularly.

It is also worth considering the type of workbench surface you choose. A robust worktop designed for workshop use will generally withstand more demanding applications than a standard domestic work surface.

Regular maintenance and avoiding unnecessary impact or excessive loads will help keep your workbench in good condition for longer.

A good-quality workshop workbench can last for many years, but its lifespan depends on the type of work it is used for and how it is maintained.

Heavy-duty steel construction can provide a strong foundation for demanding workshop environments. To extend the life of your workbench, follow the manufacturer's load recommendations, avoid overloading the surface, and keep the worktop and moving components clean and well maintained.

A tool trolley provides mobile, accessible storage, allowing you to move tools and equipment wherever you are working. This can be particularly useful in larger workshops where walking back and forth to a fixed storage cabinet can waste time.

Tool trolleys also help keep frequently used tools organised and off the work surface. Different shelves or levels can be used for different types of equipment, making it easier to find what you need.

For workshops where flexibility is important, a trolley can complement fixed storage such as a roller cabinet or workbench.

Yes, tool trolleys can be suitable for heavy tools, provided the trolley is designed and rated for the weight it can carry.
When choosing a trolley, check its maximum load capacity and distribute heavy tools evenly across the shelves. Keep heavier equipment on the lower levels where possible to improve stability and reduce the risk of the trolley becoming difficult to manoeuvre.

The best tool trolley depends on the equipment you need to store and how you intend to use it. For many professional workshops, a three-tier trolley offers a useful balance between storage capacity, accessibility and manoeuvrability.

BUNKER's range includes several 3-tier tool trolleys, including models equipped with a worktop. A trolley with an integrated work surface can be particularly useful when you need both mobile tool storage and somewhere to carry out smaller tasks.
