DECKED 101 | DECKED Truck Tool Box: Everything You Wanted to Know, but Were Afraid to Ask

DECKED has introduced the first true modern pickup truck tool box in years. Made from high impact polymer resin, it's impossible to dent but easy to love. Totally waterproof, incredibly secure, and best of all comes, with a deployable ladder making access to your tools and gear easy and convenient. What's more, it just looks really tough in a "this isn't diamond plate" sort of way.
The Tool Box ships FREE to customers in the continental United States.

I love it, I just wish one would come with a bed cover to cover the rest of the bed

[@ryana8286]

When I first started watching the video I thought that middle silver outline was one and got really excited haha

[@maxmoore8876]

That’s a GREAT suggestion.

[@jimewelsh]

I would like that too

[@rclife3190]

That would be awesome

[@JM-nt5fm]

ExTang makes a solid fold cover for tool boxes that probably would do what you want.

[@brendanrupp2687]

This is a VERY solid unit! I personally know because I’ve worked at DECKED in Defiance, OH! I’ve gotten to see all of the stages of the tool box from when it was an idea to the testing to the final product! It’s strong, rugged and built to last!

[@fongvang935]

It'd be cool if the lid can take the Milwaukee packouts on it and molle panels on the inside

I wish we could get a video of the decked system with tool box in a long bed.

[@maxmoore8876]

You guys are onto something here. Some things to consider: 1: the ladder idea is awesome - consider having one on each side, perhaps? 2: Emphasize that the ladder not only gives great access to getting into the tool box, but hello, it also gives access to the pick-up bed, in general (toss a tool or rope into the bed, out of reach, then show using the ladder to retrieve it - oh yeah!). 3: since it is molded, what if you molded the truck make nameplate into the lid (I.e., “FORD”, or “GMC” etc). And 4. And this is a question; how does the ladder work without getting tweaked or damaged, if the ground is uneven where it makes contact, where one leg is not touching the ground? Maybe make the bottom have a single point of contact, so this wouldn’t be a concern? And last, what kind of warranty does it have? The ladder is the coolest thing ever - and I want one of these, but the ladder isn’t going to last without getting twisted/tweaked the way it is now, seems to me. Great job though - I want one, if you can convince me/give a lifetime warranty on the ladder.

[@ronrynearson8737]

Really good questions because as we truck owners know nothing stays straight somewhere and somehow it twist.

[@joelapplen852]

I would like to see a box similar to this but under the bed rails. So you can run a tonneau cover the entire length of your bed which covers your tool box too.

[@ghostracingco.2538]

I had the drawer system in my work truck 2020 Silverado 2500 and it didn’t even last 3 months. Ended up tearing it out and put a metal box like this one. I honestly probably wouldn’t even try this one.

[@ronclements2002]

The box looks cool let’s see the toolbox. Having a box that doesn’t sag dent or leak is awesome but make another video showing it doesn’t leak after a car wash and a close up of the small box. Nice job.

[@jamesengland7509]

Fill it up with water that will show

[@lancedooley7558]

Can't wait to get one. Basically its built like a Glock. No denting and made almost like a pelican military box.

[@johnr5545]

Nice job god bless

[@yellowmanusa]

What is keeping someone from getting your stuff in the decked drawer system by using a sawsall or circular saw ripping the top off of the plastic top? Is there a galvanized steel "hat" in the decked drawer system, too?

[@Decked]

The Drawer System has a steel subframe, that ribs the underside of your top panels!

[@yellowmanusa]

So in-between the steel subframe it can be cut open and my stuff taken out? Or is the frame like a grated pattern tightly woven so that if the plastic top floor is cut open, no one will be able to retrieve my stuff. I ask because I am wanting to store my rifle(s) and various expensive equipment therein. If someone can rip a saw straight across in a rectangular shape, I want to know if they'll be able to just lift up on the plastic board and pull all of my equipment out or not. Can you show a video of what is underneath the table top?

[@squidtower]

Wish they made stuff for earlier vehicles. Would love to have a drawer system in my 92 F250

[@JPFunky-wg2rm]

@DECKED I second that! Really hard to find anything new for our older trucks and it’s frustrating. The first thing I thought of while watching this video is that it will not fix my 97 K1500… sure enough they don’t.

[@Decked]

​@@JPFunky-wg2rmthe DECKED Tool Box will most likely be compatible if your bed width is between 61.375" and 70.5" (this should be the measurement from the left inside bed rail to the right inside bed rail).

I wish I knew what happened to it I sold that thing 50 bucks.

[@cen7ury]

Like everything else made from polymer, the sun is going to weaken that box significantly unless you've always got it parked inside/underground, which seems unlikely for the kind of person who keeps tools in a saddle box that they actually use on a regular basis. Definitely some bright ideas involved in this, but that's a design flaw that's a bit hard to overlook.

[@Decked]

Hey Doran, the lid of the Tool Box is made out of steel reinforced, injected molded resin which is meant to hold up in the elements.

[@cen7ury]

@@Decked Which resin? There are a lot of resins out there, some of which being more sensitive to photodegradation than others. Beyond that, who makes the locks that are meant to secure that lid? Are they all keyed alike, or are the cylinders keyed individually? Aside from the neat ladder, what really sets your toolbox apart from a well-made metal one?

[@johnshue8082]

will you make a shallow version of the tool box that will work with existing drawer system?

[@Decked]

We are working on it. Stay tuned!

[@mikecapparra6673]

Do you guys make under seat storage drawers for trucks? I need some secure interior storage that won’t require me to lift my back seat because of children s car seats.

[@Decked]

Hey Mike, we do not but that's a great idea!

[@Pharmaceuticat]

Do you plan on ever making a shallower version of this box so it is compatible with Deceked drawer systems in shorter bed trucks at some point? I love the ladder idea as it would be perfect for for my lifted truck. I'd love to support y'all and get the combo at some point! (current owner of Nissan Titan Pro4x 2023 with a 21 inch deep bed which is currently compatible with DN3 drawer model, but the Box cannot be combined with that sadly)

I have had my aluminum tool box for almost 10 years and only had to buff shine it a few times, will this last 10+ years with my new truck without turning grayish white? Or do I need to ceramic coat it like all the other black plastics on the truck?

[@Decked]

Hey Michael, the Tool Box was designed to look the same way it does when you purchased it as it does ten years down the road. No ceramic coating necessary.

[@mortarman333]

I don't like how you covered up the beer window.

I can only imagine why the damn ice box opened from either direction.

[@traviskuester1828]

I wish these guys would build a chest style box for those of us who have fifth wheels. I love the box but can’t afford the extra height above the bed rails.

[@moparproud3978]

Then you have the wrong setup. If you’re rocking a short box, you’re behind the curve and always will be. If you’ve got a long box, then there isn’t an issue; I’ve never seen a situation where you need to go anywhere near 90*, and if you are, again you’ve put yourself into a bad situation and should probably learn how to tow and drive. We’ve been towing with goosenecks and fifth wheels with tool boxes for how long? Decades.

Ladder seems cheezy and reduces size of box possibly limiting the use of storing a pack out box

Awesome products, but the fact is, not every guy has the funds to purchase a brand new truck. Therefore, you guys should design a decked system that works for older model trucks, such as Chevy K1500 or Ford F-150 from like 89-98 years. It would be nice to see your products catered to all generations of truck; not simply designing products for $50k-$75k dollar trucks!!!

Hey! The DECKED Truck Tool Box has a robust lock and latch system making forced entry nearly impossible. Tub-lid interface minimizes theft pry bar points. A single lock secures multiple latch points. The tie down points are insanely robust. You are more likely to pull the whole Tool Box out before damaging the tie downs.

[@OnThe23rd]

@@Decked How many pins is the lock? Are there any security pins? If it's a four-five pin lock with no security pins it's pretty much useless. And I assume pulling the whole box out would damage either the hardware or the bed rails, which is why I am curious what a safe load on the tie down points is, in order to avoid that.
