Rockler Expands Lock-Align Drawer Organizer System

Rockler Woodworking and Hardware has added five new products to its modular Lock-Align Drawer Organizer System, increasing the configuration options for creating customized drawer storage.

“Ease of customization is what really sets the Lock-Align system apart from other drawer organizers,” said Steve Krohmer, Rockler’s vice president of product development. “These new components provide users with even more flexibility so they can design storage solutions tailored to fit their needs.”

One of the new offerings – a pack of two Lock-Align Wall Brackets – even extends the system beyond drawers. The rigid plastic brackets can be mounted to a wall or bench and feature the same locking profile as Lock-Align trays, so users can take storage bins from the drawer and hang them where they're working – without adding clutter to their work surface. The brackets are 19-11/16" long – enough to hold up to five standard-size bins – and have three mounting holes spaced 8" on center.

To help organize especially small items, Rockler is introducing a pack of two 4-Way Divider Bins, which includes standard-size Lock-Align storage bins plus slip-in inserts that subdivide each bin into four smaller compartments. The dividers are curved at the bottom to match the contours of the bins, making it easier to retrieve the contents. Double-sided tape is included to hold the dividers in place.

The new Wide Bin fits in the Lock-Align Wide Tray, which was part of the initial system rollout, and provides portable storage for larger items or greater quantities. The pack of two Standard Trays makes it easier to expand a Lock-Align configuration without having to buy another Starter Kit (sold separately).

The new Liner is made from the same textured synthetic rubber as the Lock-Align trays and is designed for use alone in a drawer or to fill spaces not covered by other components. It measures 13" x 23" but can be trimmed to fit with scissors. Like the trays, the Liner has a grid pattern molded into the underside to serve as a cutting guide.

As part of the product introduction, Rockler is offering a free downloadable plan for a tool chest sized to fit Lock-Align system components. The plan and other product information are available at Rockler.com/build.
