It measures 36\" x 20\" x 13.25\" and holds 4.8ft³. The lid is UWS's patented RigidCore design, foam-filled so it does not bow or bind, with gas struts that lift it to a full 90 degrees and hold it there. A MicroSeal gasket runs the perimeter to keep dust and water out. Because this is the EC version, UWS packages it for parcel delivery rather than freight, so it comes to your door without a terminal pickup or a delivery window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS 36\" aluminum foot locker, bright aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware kit (NOT included on all models, see the note below)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"embed-container\" style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DPxZ-LJY4PI\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.8ft³ of Lockable Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe box measures 36\" x 20\" x 13.25\" overall and holds 4.8ft³. Capacity is UWS's own published figure for this model, not a category average.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatented RigidCore Foam-Filled Lid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lid is not a hollow aluminum shell. UWS injects a solid foam core between two sheets of aluminum, which stiffens the whole panel so it does not bow in the middle, does not warp in the sun, and does not bind in the latches after a few hundred cycles. It is the difference you notice every time the lid closes squarely instead of needing a shove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne-Piece Welded Aluminum Tub\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tub is formed from a single sheet of extra-thick aluminum and welded, rather than riveted or folded from panels. There are no seams down the corners to leak or split, and aluminum will not rust out from the inside the way a painted steel box does once the coating is chipped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBright Aluminum Diamond Plate Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bright aluminum diamond plate is the classic work-truck look and it is the lowest-maintenance finish UWS offers: there is no paint to chip, so a scuff polishes out rather than turning into a rust spot. UWS's own care guidance is that polish will clear small scratches and scuffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStainless Steel Paddle Latches, Locking From Either Side\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo recessed stainless steel paddle latches with keyed locks, connected inside the box so it opens from the driver's side or the passenger's side. Recessing the latch into the box face means there is nothing sticking out to catch a hip or a cargo strap, and stainless means the lock still turns after a salt winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicroSeal Gasket Around the Lid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA closed-cell gasket runs the full perimeter of the opening and compresses when the lid shuts, which is what keeps dust, road spray and rain out of the box. UWS demonstrates it publicly by hitting a closed box with mud and then a pressure washer, and that video is linked on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Opening Lid That Stops at 90 Degrees\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGas struts take the weight, so the lid lifts itself once the latches release and stays put at a full 90 degrees. That matters when your hands are full: you release the latch, the lid goes up, and it does not come back down on your knuckles while you are reaching in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaged for Parcel Delivery, Not Freight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the EC version of the box, which UWS packages specifically so it can ship by parcel carrier instead of on a freight pallet. In practice that means it comes to your door rather than to a terminal you have to drive to, and there is no appointment window to sit through. The box inside is the same box as the freight-only version; only the packaging differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:8px 0 4px;border:1px solid #e6e6e6;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"display:table;width:100%;margin:0;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border:none;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background:#ba232a;color:#ffffff;text-align:left;padding:12px 14px;font-weight:700;border:none;\"\u003eApplication\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background:#ba232a;color:#ffffff;text-align:left;padding:12px 14px;font-weight:700;border:none;\"\u003eFit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;font-weight:600;\"\u003ePickup beds, any size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, it needs 36\" x 20\" of floor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;font-weight:600;\"\u003eTrailers, flatbeds and service bodies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, it bolts to any flat surface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;font-weight:600;\"\u003eGarage, shop or job-site storage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, it works as a standalone lockable chest\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;font-weight:600;\"\u003eMounting on the bed rails as a crossover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#ba232a;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✗\u003c\/span\u003e No, this is a floor-standing chest\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#faf7f7;border-left:4px solid #ba232a;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;padding:14px 16px;margin:12px 0;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit guidance:\u003c\/strong\u003e A universal-fit lockable chest measuring 36\" x 20\" x 13.25\".

The company builds tool boxes, transfer tanks and chests for people who open them every working day, and the engineering choices reflect that: welded one-piece tubs instead of riveted panels, stainless steel latch hardware instead of plated steel, and a foam-filled lid instead of a hollow one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo of those choices are worth knowing by name. The patented RigidCore lid sandwiches a solid foam core between aluminum skins, so the lid stays flat and keeps latching squarely long after a hollow lid would have bowed in the middle. The MicroSeal gasket runs the full perimeter of the opening and is what keeps dust and water out. UWS is confident enough in the seal to publish a video of a closed box being hit with mud and then a pressure washer. UWS builds these boxes in Florida: the company's own product copy for this model says it is designed, fabricated and welded there, and the carton is marked Assembled in USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular listing is from the UWS EC series, which is the same box packaged so it can travel by parcel carrier rather than freight. That is worth money to you: the box arrives at your door instead of a freight terminal, without a delivery appointment to wait on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrestige Truck is an authorized UWS dealer. Every box we ship is new, in the manufacturer's carton, and covered by the full UWS limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935757545716,"sku":"UWSEC20061","price":462.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4784\/0244\/files\/uws-ec20061-hero-front-three-quarter.webp?v=1785301758","url":"https:\/\/prestigetruck.com\/products\/uws-36-in-aluminum-foot-locker-truck-tool-box-bright-aluminum-ec20061","provider":"Prestige Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
