These are the latest version (v 2.0) of my lidded Gridfiniy bins, with several improvements over the 1st version. These include the following improvements and new elements:
Included here are 4 types of Gridfinity bins with latching lids:
6U Bins:
9U Bins:
12U Bins:
There are 2 options for the lids, one is a plain lid, and the other has a grid, which allows proper stacking for 1x1 bins on top of these bins.
Additionally, there are two latch designs included. One is a plain latch top, and the other has a flip up tab, which can help with opening the bins (see pics).
This design requires the following hardware:
(2) M3x6mm Button Head Cap Screws (BHCS) - or any M3x6 button head screws.
If using the lids with the Grid pattern, the following additional hardware is needed:
(2-3) M3x6 Flat Head Screws - M3x6 Button Head Cap Screws will also work.
You can use the included 3MF which has all the models set up on 9 plates, with one multi-color option for the tabbed latches. If you set the files up in your chosen slicer, then I suggest using the following settings:
If you print the lids with the grids (to allow stacking 1x1 bins), use the models which have “LID_GRID” in the names. For example, these are the models needed for the 3x3 bins:
LIDDED_BINS-3E_3X3_LID_GRID_A.STL
LIDDED_BINS-3E_3X3_LID_GRID_B.STL
The lids with the grid patterns require the additional M3x6 flat head screws. A couple drops of superglue is also a good idea to bond the grids to the lids.
If you print the tabbed latch tops, I recommend using PLA. You can use the following files:
Single Color:
LIDDED_BINS-3E_LATCH_TOP_BOTH.STL
Multicolor (load both files together in the slicer to maintain their relationship and answer “yes” to load them as a single object):
LIDDED_BINS-3E_LATCH_TOP_A.STL
LIDDED_BINS-3E_LATCH_TOP_B.STL

The doors and hinges are designed so they will be easier to install if the hinges are pushed into place with the door almost closed.
Other stuff:
If you need some bins for small parts, the following bins with covers are a good option to use with the Box For Stuff 20 bin and 25 bin cases (or other 6U tall cases):
