What Is a Gable Box?
A gable box has a peaked roof that doubles as a carry handle: the front and back panels rise and lean in to meet at the top, while the side gussets fold inward. With a pre-glued auto-lock or snap-lock base, it sets up in seconds and carries like a bag, which makes it the classic box for bakeries, takeaway and gifts.
A built-in carry handle, with no ribbon or extra parts to attach.
Auto-lock or snap-lock bases set up in seconds and hold weight.
Available with a window, an insert, kraft board or tall proportions.
Printable on every panel, including the roof and handle.

The Gable Boxes Style, Explained
Why Brands Choose Gable Boxes
Custom gable boxes combine a box and a carrier bag: the peaked roof closes into a handle, so customers carry their purchase home with one hand. For bakeries, takeaway and gifting, wholesale gable boxes save the cost of a separate bag.
Sets Up in Seconds
A pre-glued crash-lock base pops into place as the box opens, and the roof folds shut along its gusset creases. Staff can set up and fill a gable box in seconds at the counter.
Printed Gable Boxes That Travel
Full-color printing on every panel, including the roof and handle, means printed gable boxes advertise your brand all the way home. Foil, spot UV and windows are available with no extra plate charges.
Windows, Inserts and Tall Sizes
Add a die-cut window to show off the product, an insert to keep cupcakes or bottles upright, or choose tall proportions for candles and bottles.
Eco-Friendly Gable Packaging
Food-safe kraft and paperboard stocks are fully recyclable, and FSC-certified options are available, so eco-friendly gable boxes replace plastic bags and clamshells.
