Precision laser-cut from American steel, it provides a rock-solid, professional foundation for your gear without the DIY workarounds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use a BOCO Mount instead of disassembling a toolbox lid?
Using a toolbox lid as a mount requires you to destroy a box and rely on thin plastic tabs to hold your entire stack. The BOCO mount is a true mount—it's made from heavy-duty American steel that won't flex, crack, or strip out, saving your boxes for the tools they were meant to carry.
Can I mount this on my van floor or a truck bed?
Yes. This plate is engineered for multi-orientation use. The high-strength steel construction allows it to serve as a rock-solid floor-mounted base for tool stacks in moving vehicles, offering far more security than "hacked" plastic solutions.
Which Husky Build-Out Mount do I need?
If you have a mix of different Husky Build-Out boxes or need to secure your gear with a padlock, choose the Locking Version. If you only use boxes with red latch-points at the base and want a budget-friendly DIY option to paint yourself, the Non-Locking Raw Steel version is for you.
Will the Raw Steel version rust?
The Non-Locking version is shipped in Raw Steel. Because mild steel can rust if exposed to moisture, we recommend applying a coat of paint or a clear finish immediately. For a maintenance-free finish, choose the Locking Powder Coated option.
Perfect for: Service vans, enclosed trailers, and professional workshop organization.

Finish Types
Raw Steel: Ships as bare metal—affordable, no added finish cost, and quickest to produce/ship. Ideal if you plan to paint it yourself, weld it further, or want a custom look (e.g., intentional patina or rattle-can paint). Note: Mild steel rusts quickly when exposed to moisture/humidity—store indoors and apply protection soon if used outdoors or in damp garages. Great for budget builds or immediate DIY finishing.
Powder Coat: A baked-on, professional-grade finish (textured black standard). Much tougher than regular paint—resists chips, scratches, fading, and rust far better. Provides excellent protection for job-site, vehicle, or outdoor use (like tool mounts in vans or garages). Adds a small upcharge but delivers a premium, long-lasting look with minimal maintenance. Powder coat also helps hardware stay functional longer by reducing wear.
