Mari Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 Hi everyone! With my husband's birthday coming up, I'm looking for a way to make his life easier. Most of his tools are Makita tools which are stored in Makpac cases. He's been cursing at these cases quite a lot, mainly because the latches are quite stiff and don't open easily. He has also mentioned that for some reason, the Hitachi cases he has work a whole lot better. Now, one option would be to just get him some more Hitachi cases, but I was wondering if there might be an even better alternative? So, long story short: I'm looking for stackable cases similar to the Makpac ones (and ideally in a similar price range), but with better-working latches. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance! PS. I'm based in the EU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 Festool best for easy opening / handling + same size as Makita, spo all Makita too;s fit as if in MacCases. Bit expencive but worth the money if you could afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aessu Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Just tell him to use them more, theyll get looser. Or get him a small 8oz hammer for closing the cases, i usually just hit them with my fist to close latches, doesnt really bother me anymore.

Jronman Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 There is also Metabo Metaloc which fit within the Systainer/Makpack system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
