The most common box design with a lid that folds down and tucks inside the front. It has a snap lock bottom that assembles without glue. The box can be stored flat before use and is easy to fold when needed. Best for items that stand upright and are larger than 2 x 2 x 2 inches (5 x 5 x 5 cm).

This box design is available as simple tuck where the lid folds inside, slit lock with small side slits to keep it closed, or front lock with a special front tab for extra security.
