A storage device for tools comprising a basic housing that is provided with a swiveling-in space for a pivotable part which is hinged to the basic housing so as to be pivotable from a storage position into a removal position. The pivotable part encompasses retaining openings for tool retaining arranged in a first row and extend into a tool accommodating compartment in the storage position. At least one additional row of retaining openings is provided that runs parallel to the first row. The retaining openings of the first and the at least one additional row are offset relative to one another in a zigzag-shaped manner.
