A-Frame Trailer Mounted Toolbox with Lid that Opens a Full 90 Degrees

Question

Question:

How far does the lid open on this box? The video shows it will open a full 90 degrees but the still pictures show less than that. One of the reviewers said his did not open as far as shown in the video. I just returned one from Harbor Freight because it only opened about 50 degrees and I dont want to return another one. Thanks

In the video for the older toolbox MT80349 it looked like it opened to 90 degrees but it is sort of an optical illusion. Seen from the side you can see that it did not open a full 90 degrees.

DeeZee box # DZ91717P does open a full 90 degrees. I have included a link to this box for you. It is a little different, it is made of poly-plastic and not metal.

We also have RC toolbox # 350970 which opens a bit further than 90 degrees. I have linked a video of this box too.
