Gable Boxes

Printed Packaging That Charms

Custom Gable Boxes


Gable boxes are instantly recognizable with their house-like shape and built-in charm. The gable-roof design gives them a distinctive profile that stands out, turning packaging into something people notice and remember.


Custom Made, Not Stock

Custom printed, made-to-order packaging is what we do best. Gable boxes are no exception—unlike stock versions, these are custom die cut to your size, printed with your graphics, and finished with details that make them stand out.

How to measure for a custom product box

4 Easy Steps to Measure ANY Box

Getting the dimensions right is critical to getting accurate sizes and costs. Length x Width X Depth refer to the inside of the box. The key to getting dimensions right is determining how the product slides into the box - this will always be the depth.

1. Determine the slide direction:
Find the slide direction first - this will be the depth of the box.

2. Measure the Length:
With the opening facing you, measure the longest side (left to right).

3. Measure the Width:

Measure the shorter side (front to back), still with the box facing you.

4. Add a Little Extra:
Add about 1/16" to each measurement so your box isn’t too tight—this makes packing much easier.

Why Choose Gable Boxes?


Packaging That Sparks Curiosity

These versatile boxes are a favorite choice for retail packaging, specialty foods, event giveaways, and promotional items. Their house-shaped design makes them hard to miss—people spot them instantly and want to know what’s inside. 


Going custom really does make a difference — it turns ordinary packaging into something unmistakably yours.


Control How Much You Customize

Gable box packaging can be printed in full color and even designed with windows so shoppers see what’s inside. Add spot UV, embossing, or metallic foils for depth and dimension, and you’ll have packaging that practically begs to be picked up.


Snap Lock or Auto Lock Bottoms

We manufacture gable boxes in two folding carton styles: snap lock bottoms and auto lock bottoms. Snap locks need a bit of assembly, while auto locks are ready to go out of the box—pun intended! Both ship flat, store efficiently, and pop into shape when you need them.

Key Benefits of Custom Printed Gable Boxes


Be different! Gable boxes don’t just carry products — they create experiences. Here’s what makes them a standout packaging choice:

  • Built-in appeal – The house-shaped profile sparks curiosity and draws attention on      crowded shelves.

  • Versatile uses – Perfect for specialty foods, retail packaging, events, and      promotional giveaways.

  • Lot of surface area – Full-color printing turns every surface into advertising space.

Custom Options


Not every product needs the same box, and gable packaging is flexible enough to fit many applications. Here are some of the options you can choose from:

  • Box construction – Snap lock bottoms for economy, auto lock bottoms for      strength and speed.

  • Sizes – From small gable boxes for favors or specialty foods to larger retail-ready formats.
