Starting a career in trades has its challenges: dividing your time between completing your curriculum requirements and gaining work experience means little time to shop for tools. Building a tool collection that will withstand the demands of daily usage can be a big expense.

This is where the Gray Student program can “lend” a hand. It was designed to help full-time students enrolled in vocational and trades schools start their career with the quality tools they need to be successful.

Here are a few reasons why you should take advantage of the program during your studies:

Everyday Discounted Price on Tools Used by Canadian Professionals for Over 100 Years

Sometimes it is difficult to separate a quality hand tool from an ordinary one. Depending on the tool, comparing specifications and identifying product differences may be difficult and confusing. Many tools in the store may look similar, so you have to rely on advice from the store clerks, online reviews and opinions or simply brand reputation.

The real quality test comes in the workplace, when you use the tools on a daily basis. Enrolling in the Student program gives you the opportunity to start your tool collection with lower prices on a brand trusted by successful professionals since 1912.

Companies such as Bell Canada, Ontario Hydro, Toronto Transit Commission, General Electric, and others outfit generations of employees with Gray tools because they know the tools can deliver even in extraordinary circumstances. If Gray does the job in these situations, they will certainly perform for you as well.

Good quality tools require a greater upfront investment. As a member of the student program, you can choose any tool available on ShopGrayTools.com at an everyday discounted price eliminating the need to wait for promotions or search the internet for sales.

If a particular product is temporarily discounted more than your everyday low price you will pay the lower price. To summarise, students always pay the lowest price for a product offered on ShopGrayTools.com during their enrolment period.

No-Hassle Post-Sale Service

Before you rush to buy a particular tool, think for a moment of how you will have it serviced. As a professional your time is better spent working and making money than in line at the big box store waiting for warranty.

Gray Tools has built a reputation among professionals for backing its tools with exceptional service, including, in most cases, a no-hassle lifetime warranty.

As the only remaining Canadian tool manufacturer we stock spare parts for many of the products we sell. We routinely are able to fix ratchets from the 1960’s and later, and return them in like-new condition to their original owners.

Shop 24/7 From The Comfort of Your Home

Juggling between work and school means you have little time to research, drive, and purchase a tool. The Gray Student program runs exclusively online, meaning you can shop whenever you have time, in the morning, afternoon or evening.

Our online store offers instant access to the vast majority of products seen in our catalogue, regardless of where you are located in Canada. Orders are quickly and cost effectively delivered to your destination using our low flat rate or free shipping options.

Automatic Enrolment in the Gray Loyalty Program

Another benefit of the Student program is automatic enrolment in the Gray Loyalty Club. As a club member you will be able to collect points for every purchase you make online and for other activities. One of the best easiest ways to collect points is by referring friends to our website. As soon as your friend registers and makes a minimum $50 purchase, you will be rewarded with 1000 points.

Points are redeemable for attractive rewards, such as discounts on future purchases. During our limited time promotions for club members, you will have opportunities to earn and redeem points faster.
