Hello

I have brought some storage boxes from
The range, that belong to a wall mounted system. I didn’t get the whole kit, as I wanted to put the storage boxes where I would most likely to be needed.

I don’t think I can get labels for these boxes, and I am having to create my own, I will then get most of them professionally printed when I next need to get replacement signs, notices and awareness ID cards made.

So basically I want to know if I can get pre-cut labels that will fit the storage boxes.

Storage box in question. - mine are black.


Example of the pre-cut labels

Extra info not required for this post, but may give a better insight.


So, I have a dozen, (plan for more), storage bins that are meant to be wall mounted via a kit. Of which for the last year or so, I screwed them into the wall of my shed/workshop area, but I couldn’t take them off the wall. I have spent the last year looking for a way to hang them that wasn’t too expensive.

I tend to get distracted easily, but specially lately, especially as I have had another surgery on my leg and I am taking a lot more morphine, with my autism, and reported ADHD, I somehow end up reading about a world war 2 battle that both German soldiers and American soldiers fought on the same side as allies from trying to find out if I can get labels for the storage boxes.
 
I use similar at work, lin bins.
I just use a dymo label maker (available very cheaply now) to make labels and stick them on the front.
That works very well.

Wording has to be custom because you are the only person that knows what it needs to say, so the hardest task is identifying what it contains and wording it as short as you can to fit on a label.

The mounting appears to be a french cleat type (I think) so if you want to mount them you would need to find the matching board.
Or make some battens with the appropriate slant on the back side so they fit.

I currently have a storage system from Aldi, 8 similar bins and 8 draws in the middle, with a large draw at the bottom.
I'm slowly filling them, labelling them.
On the bins I made 3D printed labels for those that have a specific item in them and not random chucked in stuff :)
LOL at the last sentence... I often go down rabbit holes too.

I always used a dymo 210 when I did a little of labelling at work.
You can buy them used via eBay or £70 or so on Amazon.
If you buy the heavy duty labels they last ages
