Learn how to keep your Sarissa Precision Terrain Tile System organized with storage doors, drawer dividers, and a display box. Practical steps for modular wargaming table storage.
Quick answer
Start by building your Terrain Tile System Storage Unit, then add drawer dividers for smaller pieces and the door set to keep everything dust-free. Use the Storage & Display Box for your most prized tiles or miniatures.
Why dedicated storage matters for your TTS tiles
Modular terrain tiles are an investment in your gaming experience. Without proper storage, they can get scratched, warped, or lost. The Terrain Tile System (TTS) from Sarissa Precision is designed to be stackable and modular, but you still need a plan to keep tiles organized and protected between games.
A dedicated storage unit gives you a home for every tile, drawer, and accessory. Adding the optional door set and drawer dividers turns the basic storage into a dust-proof, compartmentalized cabinet. The Storage & Display Box offers a separate home for your best pieces, letting you show them off while keeping them safe.
How to organize your TTS tiles step by step
- Assemble your Terrain Tile System Storage Unit: Follow the included guide to build the storage unit that matches your tile collection. Make sure all joints are square and the shelves are level before adding any accessories. A warped or uneven storage unit will cause drawers and doors to bind later.
- Install drawer dividers for small items: Slot the Terrain Tile Storage Drawer Dividers into your Deep or Shallow Drawers. Arrange them to create compartments for scatter terrain, dice, tokens, or small tiles. You can reposition the dividers later as your collection grows. Don't overfill compartments — leave a little space so you can easily grab pieces without disturbing neighbors.
- Attach the storage door set: Slide the door brackets into the storage unit and attach the left and right doors. Use the locking pin on the front to keep them securely shut. This step is optional but highly recommended if you store the unit in a dusty area or move it between games. Check that the doors swing freely before tightening the brackets — overtightening can cause binding.
- Use the Storage & Display Box for prized tiles: Place your most detailed or fragile tiles inside the Storage & Display Box behind the clear acrylic panel. Use the drawer below for larger accessories like 28mm vehicles or rulebooks. This box works well on a shelf next to your main storage unit. Avoid stacking heavy items on top of the display box — it is designed for display, not as a shelf.
Storage add-ons that help
- Terrain Tile Storage Door Set: This add-on set contains left and right doors in 3mm MDF for the terrain tiles storage, with a locking pin to keep them securely shut. Doors keep dust and accidental bumps away from your tiles when the storage unit is not in use, and the locking pin prevents the doors from swinging open during transport.
Terrain Tile Storage Door Set - Terrain Tile Storage Drawer Dividers: The divider slots into the Deep Drawer (TT14) and Shallow Drawer (TT15) to give you more storage options. Dividers let you separate small items like dice, tokens, or scatter terrain inside the same drawer, so you don't have to rummage through a jumble of pieces.
Terrain Tile Storage Drawer Dividers - Storage & Display Box with Drawer: The Storage & Display Box has a clear acrylic slide-in panel and a drawer large enough for 1/56 (28mm) tanks or bags of dice. You can display your favorite tiles or miniatures behind the acrylic panel while keeping the drawer for bulkier supplies, all in one compact box that fits on a bookshelf.
