When BAK Industries revolutionized hard folding covers by offering true full bed access, they became a true staple of the industry. In fact, to this day, when most of us think of tri-fold covers, we think of the BAKFlip line. Likewise, when it comes to hard rolling covers, few come to mind outside the Revolver Line from BAK. To say that BAK has changed the tonneau cover industry forever by innovating on these product types would not be an overstatement. But there was one small issue still that tonneau covers had also created, much like the lack of true full bed access from the original covers that hit the market. You couldn’t really have a toolbox and a tonneau cover in the same truck bed. Now since then, several companies have come out with shorter covers that work with toolboxes, but BAK found out that they could make a toolbox that went underneath their covers. The BAKBox toolbox was born. But that just wasn’t enough for BAK apparently. Yes, this new toolbox was very secure and even hidden from plain sight, but didn’t it take them back a step, creating an issue they had already solved. How could you have true full bed access if you have a toolbox taking up the space at the front of your truck bed? The BAKBox 2 set out to solve that issue. BAK created a toolbox that would work underneath their covers and had the ability to fold up against the front of the truck bed. Once emptied, this BAKBox 2 could be tucked up and folded flat against the bulkhead, allowing you once more to have true 100% bed access with a tonneau cover and a toolbox installed at the same time. No need to remove the cover or the toolbox. Just fold both up, and you’re good to go! Now the same company that revolutionized the tonneau cover industry twice has done it again. The BAKBox 2 has changed the game again! Here we have a solid, extremely secure toolbox that can be folded up to allow you to have full 100% truck bed access. The BAKBox 2 is 10 inches by 10 inches by the width of your truck bed. This toolbox is constructed of durable ½” thikc FRP composite panels with a solid core. Capable of holding up to 200 pounds worth of tools and equipment, the BAKBox 2 is solid and a truly versatile toolbox. Designed to protect your gear, keep it from sliding around your truck bed, and then fold up for full truck bed access when you need it, the BAKBox 2 is the most revolutionary truck toolbox to hit the market to date. And it’s a no drill install. This baby just clamps on to your existing BAK Industries tonneau cover rails. Let’s break down the full details of this game changing BAKBox 2 toolbox.

If you ever wanted a toolbox but didn’t want to get rid of or replace your tonneau cover, you’re in luck. Likewise, if you want a toolbox that works with your BAK cover, this product could be exactly what you’re looking for.
While there are many smaller tonneau covers that are compatible with more traditional toolboxes these days, you’re always making compromises. Either you give up part of your bed or lose full bed access or most often both. And those more traditional toolboxes are practically targets, sitting up above your truck bed rails, screaming that there’s valuable equipment stored inside.
Likewise so many of these toolboxes are expensive, old school diamond plated chrome, and overly bulky. So if you aren’t into that style of toolbox anyway and are looking for a great alternative that is also compatible with your current BAK tonneau cover, you’ve found the perfect product for your truck.
The BAKBox 2 fits under your truck bed cover and provides a hidden and secure storage compartment that can hold various tools and equipment. When it comes to security, a hidden toolbox that is out of sight underneath a tonneau cover with the tailgate locked is about as secure as you can make it.
The BAKBox 2 also doesn’t take up nearly as much space as more traditional bulky toolboxes, but it can still hold upwards of 200 pounds of equipment and tools. The included small tray fits nicely in the top of the box for storage of smaller items you don’t want to lose in your toolbox. We’ve all been there. Searching for a bolt or screw that you know was right there a second ago, but now it’s gone forever in the depths of your toolbox.
And even if you’ve never had a full sized toolbox, you’d be shocked how well this BAKBox 2 keeps your truck bed well organized. Whether you’re hauling jumper cables or bungie cords on the reg or just like to haul a few tools around just in case, the BAKBox 2 will keep it secure and stored inside your toolbox. And since it is stored up above the floor of your truck bed, you still have the full truck bed to use up until the top 12 or so inches of your bed, and even then it’s only at the front of your truck bed unless you decide to install it elsewhere.
And that’s another great part about the BAKBox 2. This toolbox installs along the rails of your tonneau cover wherever you’d like. If you’d prefer the more traditional route, you can put it up at your bulkhead as many do. But if you’d rather install your BAKBox 2 near the tailgate, you can do that too. And if you want it to go over your wheel wells, in the middle of your truck bed, that’s an option as well.
In fact, this toolbox can be installed pretty much anywhere along the rails of your truck bed cover. So you get to choose what’s best for you.
Personally, I like mine back close to the tailgate, about a foot or so in. This gives me easy access to my tools with the tailgate down and forms a barrier if I want to toss in a mobile toolbox or groceries or anything of that style near the tailgate. You can see right away how much more versatile and useful this is than your more traditional top mounted toolbox.
At the end of the day, if you’ve always wanted a toolbox that worked with and underneath your BAK tonneau cover, this really is the best solution to date on the market. And the fact that it is compatible with one of the most common and well made brands of tonneau covers on the market today really doesn’t hurt either.
The BAKBox 2--a super innovative product that let’s you have the best of both worlds: a truck bed toolbox when you need it, and full truck bed access when you don’t.
