You could always drill out any rivets as they come loose (or just do it in the beginning if it's really a big concern) and use stainless pop rivets. Maybe that's what they used anyway..... Besides,

One advantage of the Sears arrangement - that I admit that I've had to use more than once - is that you can unhook the drawers and remove them when a tool falls out of a drawer and jams things up. I
