T handle hex wrench storage

As a winter project I am hoping to try and re order my single garage.  I am hoping to get some decent tool chests, but when working out storage for the T handle Allen wrenches, they seem to take up a crazy amount of drawer space, leading to a lot of wasted / dead space.

I would like the all in size order so I can easily see if one is missing! Are there any ideas.  I bought a set of the Lifeline rip off Park ones following a PSA on here, but storing them horizontally is a challenge! Unless you have loads of space!

How about a tool board? I made a simple holder for my T handle Allen keys/wrenches, basically a small shelf with holes drilled in.

Tool board but make it so the Allen wrenches are laid out with each one’s handle at the opposing ends so they take up the least amount of space, draw around them and mark on the board their size next to the handle, then lay the board in the drawer

That way they will fit in with the least amount of wasted space, you can easily see if one is missing and see what size you need, you may need to make some kind of stopper or use something grippy on the board to stop them sliding around when you open/close the drawer

Push the handles to one side and stagger them down like normal L shape ones.

It’s hard to describe, give me 5 mins and I’ll show you what I mean.

Well yeah, but the set he ALREADY HAS includes a wall mountable rack. He wants them in a roller cabinet.

@orangemad if you find my 3mm t handle Allen key please let me know. Also it’s very frustrating that the printed on sizes wear off very fast. Blue Point set of Allen and torx wrenches here.

Above or this..

Had a similar situation to this myself, knocked this up in 10 minutes from some wood scraps, works a treat in my cabinet drawer

Actually, that’s a fair point. If the drawer is deep enough you could just lay the existing rack flat in it.

Maybe glue a couple of them little super strong magnets to the back of it to clip it to then pull the whole rack out when needed.

Shadow foam in the drawer?

This is my solution:

My Lifeline ones using the rack supplied:

And my others….

I use a magnetic strip, rather than slotted holder, as above.

I used to use a slotted holder but a magnetic strip is much easier and faster.

I use Wera allen keys though, not T-handle.

Well if it’s in a rollercab, it’s tidy already when you shut the drawer. So start with handles the same way, small nested under bigger. It will end up a mess, but as long as you can shut the drawer it’s fine. Re-tidy every now and then.

Get the biggest rollercab set up you can. Lots of drawers, varying depths. Chest above if needed, but that might depend on whether you want the flat space on top of the rollercab available.
