Years 2–3:zippers, stitching, fasteners and clings eventually wear under daily site use. We'll still repair smaller issues at our workshop — you cover postage both ways, we cover parts and labour.

The body and trays are made from heavy-gauge steel, the traditional job-site material that resists impact and twisting in ways that plastic boxes cannot match. The empty box weighs 4.8 kg, which gives the box enough weight to sit stable on the floor of a van without sliding. Powder-coating finishes every surface for rust resistance, so the box stands up to damp van interiors and outdoor storage.
The five trays open out cantilever-style when you lift the lid, so the full contents of the box are visible and reachable in one motion rather than having to dig through a deep base. The trays full-extend to give you straight-on access to spanners, sockets, drivers and small fixings, while the deeper base section underneath takes larger items like a power drill, multimeter, hammer and tape measure. Most general trade kit fits inside.
Yes. The lid has twin padlock loops plus a lid keeper, so you can fit two padlocks for site security or a single padlock when light protection is enough. The twin-loop setup is useful on shared sites where two trades share a box, since each can fit their own lock. Use weather-rated padlocks if the box sits outdoors. The powder-coated finish resists the rusting that usually starts at lock points.
It is designed for both. The heavy-gauge steel and powder-coating handle the knocks and damp of a working van, while the 4.8kg base sits stable on a workshop bench or floor. The cantilever trays open inside the van without needing the lid clearance a tray-stack box would. For tradesmen who carry the box between van and site every day, pair it with a Hammerex Professional Work Bag for the lighter hand-carry items.
Under daily site use the heavy-gauge steel and powder-coated finish are built to last for years rather than months. There are no plastic hinges or latches to crack in cold weather. Wipe the inside clean of swarf and brick dust at the end of each week and the box will keep its rust resistance. The box carries a one-year Hammerex warranty against manufacturing faults from our Yogyakarta workshop.
Every Hammerex product is made in our own Yogyakarta, Indonesia factory and dispatched from there via EMS air freight. We don't drop-ship; the same workshop that stitches the leather packs and posts the order.
Standard dispatch is within 48 hours of order confirmation, posted to EMS. Custom thread colour, custom company branding, and Pro Trade Cover orders add roughly +2 working days to dispatch because they're cut, stitched and finished to spec.
Typical UK delivery is 5-6 working days from EMS pickup. We send tracking on dispatch. Free UK delivery is available on selected products; non-UK destinations are confirmed on WhatsApp at checkout.
No. Hammerex has been supplying the UK trade through wholesale distribution for over 12 years. We now sell direct from the factory so the buyer keeps the margin the distributor used to take.
Yes — most leather belts and tool pouches can be laser-printed with your company name and logo for +£10 per item. Open the "Your company brand name" slider on the product page; our admin confirms artwork with you via WhatsApp and sends a mock-up for approval before production starts.
Beyond the standard 1-year defect warranty, the Pro Trade Cover keeps your belt in service for 3 full years on the parts that wear under daily site use — re-stitching, rivet/stud replacement, buckle service, slider replacement, and leather conditioning. You post the belt to us, we fix it and post it back. You pay postage both ways; we cover all labour and materials. Unlimited claims for 3 years from delivery.
Yes. Black is the house thread colour and is included free. Six other colours (Yellow, Red, Brown, Orange, Green, White) carry a small per-unit fee and add +2 working days to dispatch while we stitch your order to spec. Selectable on the product page in the "Thread colour" slider.
Buy 2 saves 10%, buy 3 saves 15% — applied automatically at the quantity step on most products. No code, no waiting. Bulk and trade pricing beyond that is available — message us via the Partners page for a territory-protected wholesale account.

We use the right material for the job — different leathers across our range, faux leather, and synthetic fabrics where they outperform leather (water resistance, weight, washability). Cutting, stitching, riveting, QC and pack-out all happen under one roof in Yogyakarta. Every unit is inspected on CCTV-recorded QC before pack — no outsourced assembly, no reseller in the chain.
Yes. We run a distribution-partner programme with transparent pricing, protected territories and fair monthly targets — designed around real demand in your market. Retail welcomed from 30 kg mixed product orders. Apply via the Partners page on the site.
We send the EMS tracking number on WhatsApp the day your order is dispatched. EMS provides updates from collection through customs to your door — typical UK transit is 5-6 working days. If anything stalls, message us on WhatsApp and we'll chase EMS for you.

— A. Whitcombe
A: The body and trays are made from heavy-gauge steel, the traditional job-site material that resists impact and twisting in ways that plastic boxes cannot match. The empty box weighs 4.8 kg, which gives the box enough weight to sit stable on the floor of a van without sliding.

Q: How much can the five cantilever trays actually hold?
— J. McGuire
A: The five trays open out cantilever-style when you lift the lid, so the full contents of the box are visible and reachable in one motion rather than having to dig through a deep base. The trays full-extend to give you straight-on access to spanners, sockets, drivers and small fixings, while the deeper base section underneath takes larger items like a power drill, multimeter, hammer and tape measure.

Q: Can I padlock the steel tool box for site security?
— R. Lawson
A: Yes. The lid has twin padlock loops plus a lid keeper, so you can fit two padlocks for site security or a single padlock when light protection is enough. The twin-loop setup is useful on shared sites where two trades share a box, since each can fit their own lock. Use weather-rated padlocks if the box sits outdoors. The powder-coated finish resists the rusting that usually starts at lock points.

Q: Is this tool box suitable for a working van or only a workshop?
— P. Greer
A: It is designed for both. The heavy-gauge steel and powder-coating handle the knocks and damp of a working van, while the 4.8kg base sits stable on a workshop bench or floor. The cantilever trays open inside the van without needing the lid clearance a tray-stack box would. For tradesmen who carry the box between van and site every day, pair it with a Hammerex Professional Work Bag for the lighter hand-carry items.

Q: How long should the steel tool box last under daily site use?
— L. Ahmad
A: Under daily site use the heavy-gauge steel and powder-coated finish are built to last for years rather than months. There are no plastic hinges or latches to crack in cold weather. Wipe the inside clean of swarf and brick dust at the end of each week and the box will keep its rust resistance.
