A storage container with locking lid and wall mounting arrangement for multiple containers is disclosed. The top left and right edges of the container have first extensions substantially along their length and an arctuate extension on each of them. The left and right rear vertical edges of the container have second extensions. A lid has rolled edges on its left and right sides and there is a hole through each of the rolled edges. As the lid is attached to the box by sliding its rolled edges over the first extensions, the arctuate extensions slightly deform the rolled edges until the box is fully closed and the arctuate extensions then enter the holes to lock the lid to the container. When the lid is removed from the container it is attached to its rear by sliding the rolled edges of the lid over the second extensions. The wall mounting arrangement has a small ledge below opposed rolled edges, and the container is attached to the mounting arrangement by sliding the second extensions on the rear of the container downward into the opposed rolled edges until the bottom of the container sits on the ledge.

A storage container and mounting arrangement comprising: a box having a pair of spaced side walls, a pair of spaced end walls, a bottom wall, and an open top, said box having first extensions projecting outwardly from the top edge of each of said side walls, said first extensions each having a second extension projecting outwardly therefrom with said second extensions being located near the rear end wall, and said second extensions each having sloped surfaces facing toward the front and rear end walls of said box; a lid for said box, said lid having a top and bottom side, front, rear, and left and right side edges, said left and right side edges being rolled under toward the bottom side of said lid, said rolled edges each having a linear slot therethrough near the rear edge of said lid, the distance between the inside of said rolled edges being slightly greater than the distance between the outside edges of said first extensions, and said lid is attached to said box by sliding said rolled edges over and along said first extensions, as said lid is slid onto said first extensions the rolled edges contact the front sloped surfaces of said second extensions and are deformed slightly outward as said lid is slid further onto said first extensions of said box, and when said lid fully closes said box said second extensions enter said linear slots through said rolled edges to thereby lock said lid to said box and prevent accidental opening of the storage container while not preventing subsequent removal of said lid from said box, and said lid is unlocked and removed from said box by applying a force to said lid to slide it toward the front of said box, said force causing said rolled edges to deform slighly outward as they contact the rear sloped surface of said second extensions and said second extensions exit from said said linear slots.
