Solid Gear - Ocean or Cloud are pretty good. The Boa lace system means you can kick them on or off all day or tighten and loosen them quickly if you need them more secure.
I'm only partly serious as they are expensive but they would last a long time doing diy duties. They do have a composite toe cap too which might be overkill.
IME the ratchets die if you don't loosen them before kicking off your shoes. At least on my safety boots. And the nice ladies at the builders merchant said I wasn't the only one with dead ratchets.
I'm quite careful with mine but I will have to make sure I unlatch them before taking them off in future. How long did they last and did you get a replacement?

Solid Gear - Bushido Glove is quite tempting too.
