Used Snap-On Box?

Edit: Correction, it is a KRL7022.

So it was a KRL722 and it was practically perfect; barely even used. He had the keys, owner's portfolio, the un-installed side handle, and even the plastic cover it was shipped with. We agreed on a price and I came home with it. It's deeper than suggested above - 29" including the trim. It does have plastic drawer latches similar to the HF Series 3 boxes that I don't care for. Anyone know if they're easy to remove like the HF boxes?

Snap on calls it Lock and Roll.
Enjoy the new box.

After transferring my tools from my old makeshift storage solution (vintage bank cabinets), I realized 2 things: 1) several of the drawers are very shallow and only appropriate for thin hand tools laid flat, and 2) I severely underestimated my storage needs. 2 tends to be a universal problem around here, so I'll focus my question on 1.

How do you guys with similar boxes handle the limited height storage issue? I'm running into interference with rubber mallets, tape measures, and even a thick bag of zip ties. With running out of storage already, I was looking at the tool organizers like from Tekton to gain some space back. But I'm not sure that is applicable across the board. Sure, you can stand wrenches up on an angle and probably be OK, but I don't think the same could be said of pliers for instance. How are you guys solving this problem?

This was my number one worry. The only thing I could think of is put mallets, pliers and larger things in that second big drawer. It is too deep to use just for wrenches imo. Then split wrenches into two different drawers.

I’m going tomorrow to pick up my KRL722. $1300 brand new just about from the photos. Original paperwork and receipts included. It is black with stainless trip. Regular top.

What do yall think?

That's a very good price.
