Lismore toolboxes
Off-the-shelf toolboxes are fine—until they don’t fit, don’t last, or don’t actually store what you need. Whether you’re a tradie, farmer or weekend warrior, a good toolbox should make your day easier, not harder. At North Coast Steel Fabrication, we design and build custom toolboxes right here in Lismore, tailored to your vehicle, your gear and your work.
Need deep drawers, lift-up lids, internal shelving or under-tray mounting? We’ll build it to fit your setup, not the other way around. Every toolbox is made from quality steel or aluminium, welded for strength and sealed to keep the elements out.

Made to measure, built for work
Every trade and jobsite is different—and so is every ute, truck or trailer setup. That’s why custom toolboxes make sense. We build full-width trays, gullwing boxes, underbody storage, drawer systems and more. If you’re carrying power tools, fasteners, safety gear or sensitive electronics, we can build to protect, organise and access it all with ease. Need to lock it up?
We can fit internal compartments, seals and secure locks to keep everything safe. Need something lightweight? We’ll use aluminium. Need it bulletproof? We’ll go steel. Each design is shaped around how you work, not just how it looks.
Want a setup that’s practical, secure and ready for site use? Call

What are the advantages of a custom toolbox over a universal one?
Custom toolboxes are built around your gear, your layout and your workflow. That means no wasted space, no rattling tools, and no awkward gaps or doors that don’t line up with your tray. You get the storage capacity you actually need—dividers, drawers, shelves, lift-off lids—designed to suit your trade or setup. A universal box might fit your tray, but it won’t fit your work style. A custom build does both.
How do I know what size or layout I need for my toolbox?
Start by looking at what you carry day to day—power tools, hand tools, consumables, PPE, fasteners—and how often you need to access them. Consider whether you need quick side access, lockable compartments, or full-length drawers. Think about space under the tray or over the wheel arches. A good fabricator can help map it all out, take measurements, and recommend a setup that suits your load and vehicle.
Can custom toolboxes be waterproof and dustproof?
Yes, and they should be—especially if you’re storing tools, electronics or materials sensitive to moisture or dirt. A properly built toolbox will have welded seams, internal seals around the lid, and lockable, compression-fit doors to keep water and dust out. This is essential for off-road or trade use, where gear is exposed to the elements all day long.
