Tools are regarded as high value products with a high potential re-sell value too, resulting in an epidemic of tool thefts up and down the country.
The BBC reported that in the UK a van is broken into every 23 minutes – an astonishing figure! Statistics show that tool theft is rapidly rising, in fact, since 2016 it has increased by 40%. It’s such alarming figures that have inspired Armorgard’s latest high-quality product –TrekDror.
Surprisingly, theft is only one cause of tool loss, often it’s is down to careless usage around site or simply just unorganised storage – in fact research conducted by storage solution provider Filplastic has shown that most tradespeople waste more than half an hour a day searching for their tools!
Armorgard’s proven strength in providing secure storage systems to the construction industry meant they were well placed to come up with a solution to help prevent tradesmen suffering at the hands of thieves as well as their own disorganisation.
With their mission to increase productivity and make workplaces safer, Armorgard have designed a sophisticated tool storage product that both secures and organises your products all at the same time.
TrekDror is a range of secure sliding steel drawers for storage of tools and equipment in the back of vehicles or in small spaces.

TrekDror units are robust, protected by a corrugated steel case and strengthened with reinforced ribs. This provides a high level of security so desperately needed by tradespeople such as Lee Armstrong – who unfortunately lost over £14,000 worth of tools to theft, at the time of trying to come to terms with the devastating news of his cancer diagnosis. Following this incident Armorgard created the #toolsforlee campaign, supported by many other suppliers including Kernow Fixings, helping Lee to get his livelihood back and recover from his loss [Read More]. With the launch of TrekDror, Armorgard aims to protect other tradespeople from a similar experience as Lee.
