■ UC02™ lidless crate

Core Features: The UC02™ Lidless Crate removes the lid for quick access while keeping the lightweight UC02™ frame, collapsible design, locking side panels, and expanded attachment points.

157 Usable Attachment Points: Each of the four sides provides 29 usable diamond attachment points, with another 41 on the bottom. That gives you extensive flexibility for positioning compatible hooks, holders, connectors, and other attachments around your setup. Those bottom points become especially useful in larger builds, where rotating a crate sideways turns its bottom into another usable attachment surface.

Quick-Access Storage: With no lid to open or remove, frequently used gear stays easy to load, grab, sort, and return. Use it for tools, camping equipment, sports gear, laundry, hobby supplies, garage organization, and more.

Dimensions: Measures 13.5" × 13.5" × 13.5" on the exterior with a 12.5" × 12.5" × 12.5" interior storage space; collapses to 4" H for compact storage.

Built to Expand: Use one as an open storage bin or stack and connect multiple UbeCube™ crates into larger modular storage systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many attachment points does the UC02™ Lidless Crate have?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate has 157 usable attachment points: 29 usable diamonds on each of its four sides and 41 attachment points on the bottom. The open diamond design gives you extensive freedom to position UbeCube™ hooks, holders, connectors, and other attachments around the crate while keeping the top completely open for quick access to stored gear.

What are the dimensions of the UC02™ Lidless Crate?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate measures 13.5" × 13.5" × 13.5" on the exterior and provides a 12.5" × 12.5" × 12.5" interior storage space. The crate also collapses to just 4" high when not in use, making it easy to store or transport between uses.

What UbeCube™ add-ons work with the UC02™ Lidless Crate?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate works with UbeCube™ add-ons throughout the system, including hooks, holders, bins, trays, shelves, dividers, soft goods, and other accessories. Its 29 usable attachment points per side give you plenty of flexibility for organizing gear around the exterior while keeping the interior open for larger items. Browse UbeCube™ Add-Ons to customize the crate for your setup.

Why are the attachment points on the bottom of the UC02™ Lidless Crate important?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate is often used as a building block in larger UbeCube™ setups, where crates can be rotated onto their sides instead of always sitting upright. When a crate is turned sideways, its original bottom becomes an exposed side of the build. That makes the UC02 Lidless crate's 41 bottom attachment points a highly usable mounting surface for hooks, holders, and other UbeCube™ add-ons. The attachment points are designed around the crate as a modular cube, not just around how it functions when sitting upright.

What is the difference between UC02™ Lidless and UC02™ MOD Lidless?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate prioritizes maximum attachment flexibility, while the UC02™ MOD Lidless Crate trades some open diamond space for interchangeable MOD side panels. The UC02 Lidless provides 29 usable attachment points on each side. The MOD version comes with original MOD panels that provide 13 attachment points per side and can be swapped for other MOD panel styles. The best choice depends on whether attachment density or interchangeable panels matter more to your setup.

Can I use MOD panels on the UC02™ Lidless Crate?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate does not use interchangeable MOD panels because its sides retain the open diamond pattern for maximum attachment flexibility. If you want to use original, Window, Locker, Whiteboard, or other MOD panels, choose the UC02™ MOD Lidless Crate. Both styles can be used together as part of the same UbeCube™ storage system.

What is the UC02™ Lidless Crate best used for?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate works especially well for gear you want to see and reach quickly, including tools, camping equipment, sports gear, garage supplies, hobby materials, cleaning supplies, and other frequently used items. Its open top provides immediate access, while 157 usable attachment points let you organize additional gear around the sides and bottom instead of putting everything inside the crate.

Can the UC02™ Lidless Crate stack and connect with other UbeCube™ crates?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate is Omni-Stackable™ and designed to connect with other UbeCube™ crates, allowing open-access storage to become part of a larger modular setup. You can mix lidless crates with lidded crates and MOD crates according to how you want each section to function. Learn more about building larger configurations on The UbeCube™ System page.

Should I choose the UC02™ Lidless Crate or the lidded UC02™ Crate?

The UC02™ Lidless Crate is ideal when fast, open-top access is more important than covered storage. It provides 157 usable attachment points across its sides and bottom. The UC02™ Crate adds a latching lid with another 34 usable attachment points, bringing its total to 191. Choose based on how you access and store your gear, or combine both styles within a larger UbeCube™ setup.

What’s the best way to expand beyond a single UC02™ Lidless Crate?
If you plan to build a larger setup, a UC02™ Lidless Multi-Pack is the most efficient way to scale. Multi-Packs give you multiple matching crates at once, making it easier to build shelving, towers, cubbies, or accessory-heavy layouts from the start.

All UC02™ Lidless crates share the same omni-stackable geometry as all UbeCube™ crates, so you can also mix them with UC01 or MOD variants as your system grows.

How can I customize or accessorize my UC02 Lidless Crate?
Add shelves, dividers, or bins from the Shelving / Bins / Dividers collection for better organization. You can also attach hooks, rods, or holders from the Attachments collection to build the exact setup you need.
Can I use the UC02 Lidless Crate for tools, vinyl, or outdoor gear?
Absolutely. Its rugged polypropylene frame is impact-resistant and UV-safe, making it suitable for storage rooms, vehicles, or outdoor setups. Pair it with accessories like the Tool Hook or CrateHook 4-Pack for quick-access mounting.
How do I start building a modular storage setup with UC02 crates?
You can design your own configuration using à-la-crate™, or choose a pre-configured system such as the Tool Closet kit for an instant upgrade. Both options integrate seamlessly with UC01 and UC02 models.
Why choose the UC02 Lidless Crate over a traditional storage bin?
Unlike fixed bins, the UC02 Lidless Crate connects, collapses, and grows with your space. It’s part of a modular system designed to adapt from home use to pro-level setups.
