I know this is super old question, but maybe still useful for someone else that has same problem like me - as it's still on the top Google :)

You might interest to use ToolboxItemAttribute (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.componentmodel.toolboxitemattribute(v=vs.110).aspx).

I did this at my end to resolve the problem.

[ToolboxItem(true)]
public class PanelTitle : LabelControl  {
   // Whatever code to override LabelControl here...
}

Rebuild the solution and the extended control should be shown in the toolbox.
