Our best sellers:

There are some lockout tools that are a “must have!” The Inflatable Wedge is one of those. The Original Inflatable Wedge is a sturdy tool invented and patented, and was created for the building industry to withstand a large amount of pressure. Once it’s inflated, unlocking is accomplished by simply guiding another lockout tool favorite, the One Piece Reach-It™ tool to the unlock target area. We have a variety of lengths and styles to choose from, which you can find in our shopping cart. Another wedge to accompany your lock out tools is our new Rhino™ Pry Wedge. This dual-sided wedge features a pry end to quickly open the car frame to create an opening for the Long Reach Tools for fast auto opening. The AK49 Kit is hands down our most popular selling kit in our lockout tools product line. The AK49's cool camo bag is stocked with our best selling lock out tools, including the AK Reach It! This lock out kit also features 4 wedges and an Instruction Book. Remember, when you buy Next Generation Lockout Tools, all the chrome wire tools come with a lifetime warranty against breakage.

Our Industry:

There are a number of industry trade shows where we could sell our lockout tools, but generally we go to just 2-3 shows a year, for our Distributors' sake. Many are already there selling our lockout tools, so we purposefully choose not to compete with them. There are also a number of trade magazines in our industry that we have placed ads with for our lockout tools. One magazine, Tow Times, has been kind enough to let us link to the Trade Show Schedule here. Other Trade magazines which we have placed ads for our lockout tools are; American Towman, Phootnotes, and the newer Pro Repo Nation. You will meet some of the most genuine, down to earth people in our industry. The industry as a whole is based upon helping people. Next Generation Lockout Tools has enjoyed getting to know them these 27 years, and can’t imagine our life with knowing them!
