never leave my tools on site or very rarely in customers houses,cos if they got nicked you cant work till you have got new tools,if they went i would have to call it a day,i fit kitchens,its taken 4 years to build up my tools and cost me over 5 1/2 grand,just not worth the risk mate,keep em in van its got dead locks ,

cheers rob
