Toolgrid Tool Boards: The Foundation of a Smarter Workshop

When it comes to keeping a toolbox, service truck, or garage drawer in order, the board you build on matters just as much as the holders you fill it with. Toolgrid has engineered its Tool Boards to be the literal foundation of a fully modular, endlessly reconfigurable organization system — and the results speak for themselves among professional technicians and serious enthusiasts alike.

What Makes Toolgrid Tool Boards Different

Mantis is the manufacturer and supplier of the patented Toolgrid™ tool organization system, established in 1986. That decades-long heritage of precision manufacturing is evident in every board. Made from durable, high-impact plastic, Toolgrid® boards feature a precise grid of holes engineered to accept a wide variety of locking Toolgrid® holders, allowing users to create fully customized tool layouts.

Toolgrid® and its components are covered by Patent # 10,618,159 B2 and Patents Pending — a testament to the genuine innovation behind the system. Toolgrid® is a patented system of boards and tool holders designed to organize tools with precision and flexibility; each holder features locating pins that snap into the holes on the Toolgrid board, allowing for fast, intuitive setup.

Board Sizes, Thickness, and Fit

All boards are 3/8" thick. If a Toolgrid board does not match your drawer dimensions, you can cut the board with a jigsaw for an exact fit. For extra-wide drawers, use two Toolgrid boards to cover the entire drawer. This flexibility makes them a practical choice for everything from compact toolbox drawers to full-width service truck storage.

The 6 × 6-inch tool organizer boards lock together to build a modular, open-source grid system that adapts to specific requirements, and at 9.5 mm thick, these sturdy boards assemble into countless configurations for tool chests or workspaces of any size. Each properly mounted Toolgrid board supports up to 25 pounds, making them the standard in tool organization for mechanics who need heavy-duty solutions.

A Versatile System Beyond the Toolbox Drawer

Toolgrid® isn’t limited to tool chest drawers — the boards can also be mounted on worktops and shelves, giving you flexible organization options wherever you need them. By being installed in any drawer instead of being a wall-mount pegboard, you can take your tool organization anywhere — whether it’s in your shop or garage, or in a portable toolbox or tool cart you take to the job site.

One of the unique features of Toolgrid is its ability to accommodate both metric and SAE tools, which is essential for mechanics who work on a variety of vehicles. Toolgrid’s modularity lets you add boards as needed — the interlocking 6 × 6 grids connect without tools, allowing endless layout possibilities for a growing collection, so you can continuously adapt your tool storage configuration without replacing existing boards or disrupting your current setup.

Build Your Setup Around Toolgrid Tool Boards

The board is just the beginning. Once your Toolgrid boards are in place, every holder, container, and divider in the system clicks, pins, and screws directly into the grid. Each board features thousands of precisely spaced holes, allowing you to position holders and tools exactly where you need them, and for a perfect fit, the boards can be easily trimmed to match your drawer dimensions. Whether you’re outfitting a single drawer or an entire rolling cabinet, Toolgrid Tool Boards set the standard for workshop organization.
