Service Body Drawers

How to Choose the Right Service Body Drawers

Start with your compartment, not the drawer. Service truck drawers are sized to specific body builders’ compartments, and even bodies from the same manufacturer can vary by model year and compartment position. Before you order, measure three things:

Width: Measure the clear door opening from side to side, not the inside wall. Door frames, seals, and latch hardware usually make the opening narrower than the compartment.

Height: Measure the clear door opening from the compartment floor to the lowest point of the top frame, again accounting for seals and latch rods.

Depth: Measure from the back wall to the inside of the closed door, allowing for anything mounted on the back of the door.

Compare those numbers to the dimensions listed on each drawer unit. If a unit lists a dimension within a fraction of an inch of yours, double-check the measurement before ordering. If you’re between sizes, call our team before you buy.

Next, think about what goes in it. Shallow drawers keep fasteners, fittings, and hand tools visible and easy to grab. Taller drawers fit power tools, meters, and parts bins. Multi-drawer units and drawer packs let you mix both in one compartment, so the tools you use most stay at waist height and the heavy items stay low.

Built for Trucks That Work Every Day

A service body compartment takes a beating: road vibration, weather, and drawers loaded with hundreds of pounds of tools and parts. That’s why we focus on heavy-duty tool box drawers with load-rated slides, positive latching to keep drawers closed on the road, and construction that holds up to daily use on the job site. Whether you’re replacing worn-out drawers on one truck or standardizing compartment layouts across a fleet, we’ll help you find units that fit right the first time.

Service Body Drawers FAQ

How do I know which drawers fit my service body?
Start by shopping your body manufacturer above, then compare your measured compartment opening to the dimensions listed on each drawer unit. Compartment sizes vary by body model, model year, and compartment position, so your measurements matter more than the model name.

What’s the difference between service body drawers and service truck drawers?
They’re the same thing. Both terms describe drawer units built to install inside the side compartments of a service or utility body.

Can I install service body drawers myself?
In many cases, yes. Most drawer units install inside the compartment with basic hand tools. Check the installation details on each product page before you order.

How much weight can service body drawers hold?
Load ratings depend on the drawer size and slide rating, so they vary from unit to unit. Check the product page for each drawer’s rated capacity, and keep your heaviest tools in the lower drawers.

Do you sell drawers for fleets?
Yes. If you’re outfitting multiple trucks, contact our team about matching drawer layouts across your fleet.
