What do I need to look for when buying a metal cabinet?

Our classic powder-coated sheet metal cabinets can withstand tough conditions and are widely used in warehouses, workshops and other demanding work environments. Depending on their design, they are suitable for storing everything from binders and a variety of small parts through to large tools and heavy machinery. We have some suggestions to help you on some of the things you should check for the next time you need to buy a metal cabinet - if you want to make a decent cabinet even better!

Positioning and adapting the cabinet 

Adjustable shelves that can be moved up and down are a simple feature that allows you to easily change the storage to your needs. You may also add more shelves to customise your storage arrangement.

Wall mounting is an advantage when space is at a premium. Hanging smaller metal cabinets on the wall frees up floor space and is the best option if you only need a small amount of storage. 

Adjustable feet ensure that the cabinet is level and stable, particularly on uneven floors and surfaces. This is a practical option that provides additional safety.
