For over a century, Draper Tools has been providing customers with exceptional service and quality tools. Established in 1919, by Bert Draper, the company is still proudly family owned and run today. While Draper Tools has evolved and expanded, its dedication to product quality and customer service has remained a constant priority.
iFixit is a global community of people helping each other repair things. Our site hosts 100,000+ free repair manuals for all kinds of stuff written by staff, students, and community members. We want to empower everyone to fix every thing.
Leading manufacturers trust us for DIY repair service support like understanding and improving product repairability, building self-service repair ecosystems, distributing parts to customers, writing top-notch repair documentation, and much more.
Part of our mission is making sure repair is accessible to everyone, which means we're fierce advocates for the Right to Repair—laws that ensure anyone can get the parts, tools, and documentation they need to fix their stuff.
We're also ardent supporters of independent repair professionals and businesses. iFixit Pro connects repair pros with quality parts and tools at prices that make sense for them. And we're working on training the next generation of fixers through the iFixit Pro Repair Academy.
iFixit EDU and the iFixit Foundation focus on teaching technical writing skills to the next generation of fixers, tinkerers, and engineers.
We cover a lot of ground in pursuit of our mission, and we're always looking for people to join us. Whether you're an OEM, retailer, professor, repair professional, or anyone else who wants to be part of our movement, get in touch.
