Date: 1st September 2025
Author: BUNKER

For retro-classic and modern-classic car enthusiasts and restoration experts, having the perfect workshop is just as important as the vehicles themselves. A well-organised space can make all the difference in facilitating meticulous maintenance and repairs, ensuring tools and parts are within reach, and maintaining an efficient workflow.

This is where BUNKER stepped in. Through our partnership with The Den Automotive, an esteemed automotive workshop specialising in retro and modern classic cars, we transformed their workspace into an optimised, high-functioning environment tailored to the needs of experts. Our modular storage solutions have helped The Den streamline operations, improve organisation, and create a workspace worthy of the timeless classics.

A Little Bit About The Den Automotive

Launched in 2024, The Den is a specialist venture from the team behind and Nick Boaz (Tolman Engineering, Red Bull F1), focused on providing high-level servicing, maintenance, and recommissioning for retro and classic-modern cars to preserve and enhance mechanical reliability and long-term performance.

Whether it's bringing a long-dormant car back to life or maintaining a cherished vehicle to an exceptional standard, The Den builds long-term relationships with both clients and their cars. By getting to know each car's history and each owner's needs, the team delivers a level of service that goes far beyond a typical garage.

Additional services include upholstery and interior refinement, award-winning detailing, bespoke modification projects, as well as professional transport, concierge, and secure vehicle storage.

The Den Automotive: A Hub for Modern-Classic and Retro Car Care

The Den is not just another automotive workshop; it is a sanctuary for any car enthusiast. Dedicated to breathing new life into your pride and joy, The Den offers expert servicing and maintenance for some of the most beloved cars.

However, as their workshop grew, so did the challenges of storage and organisation. With an increasing collection of tools, parts, and specialist equipment, The Den needed a robust storage solution that would enhance efficiency while maintaining the workshop's professional aesthetic. That’s where BUNKER stepped in with a tailored solution.

Understanding The Den’s Storage Challenges

Before BUNKER’s intervention, The Den faced common but critical workshop challenges, including:

• Limited Space for Tools and Equipment – As their workload grew, tools, parts, and specialist equipment started taking up valuable floor space, affecting workflow and efficiency.
• Untidy Workstations – With a variety of tools and components required for each project, the Den needed structured storage to keep everything easily accessible.
• Need for Secure Storage – High-value car parts and precision tools require lockable and durable storage solutions to ensure safety and security.
• Maintaining a Professional Aesthetic – The Den prides itself on being a premium workshop, and its workspace needs to match the prestige of the cars that their owners would expect of a high-end facility. 

BUNKER’s Bespoke Storage Solutions for The Den

After assessing The Den’s workflow, equipment, and storage requirements, BUNKER delivered a comprehensive modular storage solution designed to maximise efficiency, organisation, and security. The products we supplied to The Den included:

• 25 Piece Modular Storage Combo With Worktop – A complete modular setup providing versatility and customisation to suit the flow of work in a busy restoration space.
• Modular Floor Cabinet - 5 Drawer – Compact but spacious, this unit keeps frequently used tools within easy reach while maintaining a tidy work area.
• Modular Mobile Cabinet – Perfect for mobile efficiency, enabling technicians to move tools and parts around the workshop with ease.
• Modular 7-Drawer Floor Cabinet – Larger storage capacity ideal for keeping heavier or less frequently used equipment securely stored.
• 2 Door Modular Floor Cabinet - Ideal for keeping power tools or cleaning supplies.
• 54” Hardwood Worktops – Durable work surfaces that fit seamlessly with BUNKER units, providing a solid and attractive workspace.
• 61” Workbench Roller Cabinet - Features 15 drawers and a 25mm thick hardwood worktop for storing a wide range of hand tools, power tools and supplies.

Used by the team at RetroPower, it's ideal for busy mechanics who need quick, organised access to tools throughout the day. For added convenience, the drawers open from both sides, making it even more practical in fast-paced workshop environments.
• 72” Workbench - Designed for precision work, this workbench is perfect for completing tasks and projects.

These units provided The Den with a modular, scalable, and secure system that supported their efforts.
