Protect High-Value Assets with Custom Tool Box and Chest Covers


The Risk of Environmental Exposure to Professional Instrumentation

In busy industrial workshops and commercial garages, professional tool chests and rolling cabinets represent a significant capital investment. Despite their rugged appearance, these units are highly susceptible to the workshop environment when left unprotected. Airborne particulates, grinding dust, and chemical overspray can infiltrate drawer slides and locking mechanisms, leading to mechanical binding and premature wear. Furthermore, in facilities with fluctuating temperatures, condensation can form on cold metal surfaces, causing oxidation and surface rust on both the chest and the precision hand tools stored within. Without a dedicated barrier, the professional finish of the cabinetry is also at risk from accidental scratches and impact damage during daily facility operations.

Industrial-Grade Shielding for Precision Storage Systems

Our custom tool box and chest covers provide a rugged, professional-grade solution designed to maintain your equipment in showroom condition. As a specialized protective application within our storage covers range, these enclosures are manufactured from high-tensile, reinforced vinyl that is 100% waterproof and chemical-resistant. Unlike universal "one-size-fits-all" covers, our products are precision-tailored to the exact dimensions of your specific chest or cabinet brand. This ensures a drum-tight fit that prevents the accumulation of dust and moisture, while still allowing for easy deployment and removal at the start and end of every shift.

Strategic Benefits of Tailored Tool Chest Enclosures

  • Advanced Dust and Contaminant Mitigation: Providing an impermeable physical barrier that keeps abrasive workshop dust and overspray away from sensitive drawer bearings and tool surfaces.
  • Superior Moisture and Corrosion Defense: Creating a stable micro-environment that shields metal surfaces from humidity and condensation, preventing the onset of rust on high-carbon steel tools.
  • Total Finish and Branding Preservation: Protecting powder-coated finishes and custom decals from UV fading and mechanical abrasions, ensuring your equipment maintains its professional appearance for years.
  • Custom Access and Security Features: Available with industrial-grade zippers or Velcro closures that allow for quick access to specific compartments without needing to fully remove the protective cover.

Common Questions


Which material should I choose?

If you are trying to choose between the 18oz and 12oz vinyl materials, please choose based on your environment. For regular weather conditions, 12 oz. vinyl is a great material at a slightly less expensive price. If you are going to experience heavy weather conditions such as heavy snow, heavy rain, and lots of wind, then please choose the 18 oz. vinyl material.

What is the most common material?

The 18 ounce vinyl is used to make 90% of the covers ALCO offers. Even though both materials are equally strong and look the same, the majority of customers pick the thicker material.

Are they easy to clean?

Yes. Contrary to other polyester covers that resemble canvas, vinyl is a material that is extremely slick and is therefore simple to clean. Canvas will capture and hold mold and stains that are difficult to remove, as opposed to the sleek ALCO Vinyl custom furniture covers.

How strong are the covers?

18 oz vinyl is a very strong and long-lasting material, in fact, it is the same material that is used on the semi trailers to cover their cargo! As you can imagine, the abuse the material can endure on the highway is extreme, and if they didn't hold up, the truckers would not use them. That is why 18 oz vinyl is one of the strongest covers that you can purchase.

My cover will be used indoors. Which material is ideal?

The 600D material is the perfect material for indoors or even outdoors if its mostly in the shade and not in harsh conditions.

Common Questions

Mobile Shelving Covers — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you make mobile shelving covers to my exact size?

Yes. Each cover is produced to your exact measurements in centimetres or millimetres. We add a small allowance for ease of use, ensuring the cover slides over smoothly without being too tight.

Which material is best for mobile shelving?

For most indoor storage environments, 600D polyester offers excellent dust protection. For heavier-duty environments or for areas with moisture, vinyl provides superior durability and easy cleaning.

Are the covers dustproof and moisture-resistant?

Yes. All materials protect against dust, dirt, and most indoor moisture. Vinyl offers the highest level of resistance against moisture and light splashes.

Can the covers protect against pests?

Yes. When secured correctly, the covers help prevent insects and small pests from accessing stored items, making them ideal for archives, libraries, offices and storerooms.

Do the covers include access zippers?

Yes. Dual vertical zippers allow quick access to the shelving without removing the entire cover. They can be placed on any side you prefer.

Can I choose which side the zipper splits are on?

Yes. During checkout, you can choose the side where the zipped openings should be located for convenient entry.

Is vinyl or polyester easier to clean?

Vinyl is the easiest to clean thanks to its smooth, non-porous surface. Simply wipe with mild soap and water. Polyester is also easy to maintain but not as resistant to staining as vinyl.

Are the covers suitable for commercial or industrial environments?

Yes. Vinyl options are ideal for warehouses, production facilities and high-traffic storage rooms. Polyester is suited for offices, archives and low-impact environments.

How strong are the vinyl covers?

The 12oz and 18oz vinyl materials are extremely durable. The 18oz grade is similar to the material used on transport tarpaulins, offering exceptional long-term strength.

Will the cover fit rolling or mobile shelving units?

Yes. The covers are specifically designed for mobile shelving, rolling archive units and movable storage systems.

Are the materials flame retardant?

Flame-retardant vinyl grades are available upon request. Please mention your safety requirements when placing your order.

What colours are available?

Standard colours include Black, Brown, Blue, White, Tan, Red, Navy, Yellow, Olive Green and Grey. Custom colours may be available for bulk orders.

How do I measure my shelving unit?

Measure the overall width, depth and height in centimetres, including handles or parts that protrude. Use the How to Measure guide before submitting your dimensions.

What is the lead time and warranty?

Production typically takes 10–12 working days. Vinyl covers include a multi-year warranty and polyester covers come with a 3-year warranty on materials and workmanship.

Do you offer bulk or commercial discounts?

Yes. Discounts are available for multi-unit orders. Use the custom quote tool or contact our support team for project pricing.
