About this dieline

A flip top box has a lid hinged at the back: it lifts up and closes over the front, where the lid's sides lock it on. Think of a card deck, a cigarette pack or a box of tea bags. It is one sheet of board glued down the side, with a glued flat bottom or a 1-2-3 bottom that locks without glue.

Enter the length, width and height and the board, and download a print-ready PDF with cut and crease lines. The lid's front comes down as far as the box is deep, at most half the height, and a small tab on the front wall keeps the lid from sinking in.

How do I fold the lid?

Fold the lid's two triangular sides down, tuck the small flap on each one in behind the lid's front, then close the lid over the front wall.

Can it hold something heavy?

Keep the glued bottom for weight: its two flaps cover the whole bottom. Use thicker board for a big box; the lid and its sides grow with the sizes.
