Product Information

Full details

The GPC Hazardous Substance Storage Cabinet is an essential safety solution for industrial workshops, laboratories, and warehouses that need to store volatile or dangerous chemicals securely. This unit is ideal for professionals seeking a robust, compliant storage space that prevents unauthorized access and minimizes spill risks; however, users should note that its heavy-duty steel construction makes it a stationary unit, meaning it is not intended for frequent relocation once loaded.

FAQs

Is the cabinet fireproof?

The cabinet is constructed from high-quality steel for durability and containment, but it is primarily designed for hazardous substance security rather than fire rating.

How often should I clean the sump tray?

The tray should be checked after any spill or at least once per month to ensure it is clear of hazardous liquid accumulation.

Can I bolt this cabinet to the wall?

Yes, for added stability and security, it is recommended to secure the cabinet to a wall using appropriate heavy-duty masonry or wall anchors.

Are replacement shelves available?

Please contact the manufacturer or your local GPC supplier to verify availability of compatible replacement parts.

What is the total weight capacity of the shelves?

While the steel is heavy-duty, always distribute weight evenly across the shelves and do not overload individual shelves beyond their structural limits.

Troubleshooting

Door does not close flush

Ensure the cabinet is perfectly level on the floor. An unlevel floor can cause the cabinet frame to twist slightly.

Sump tray is difficult to slide out

Check for debris or chemical buildup in the runners and clean the area with an appropriate solvent.

Rust appearing on interior shelves

Immediately clean the affected area and touch up the paint or apply a protective anti-corrosive coating to prevent further degradation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable 0.9mm steel build
  • Effective spill containment with galvanised sumps
  • Versatile internal organization via adjustable shelves
  • Distortion-resistant door design

Cons

  • Heavy weight requires stable flooring
  • Not designed for transport once loaded
  • Requires significant floor space for full door clearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Place the cabinet on a level, solid surface. Because the unit is constructed from heavy-duty steel, ensure your flooring can support the weight of the cabinet combined with the weight of the stored hazardous materials. Secure the unit against a wall if local safety regulations require.

Compatibility: The shelves are adjustable to fit a wide range of standard industrial containers, though users should measure their tallest containers before finalizing shelf positioning.

Care: Regularly inspect the galvanised sump trays for liquid buildup. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a non-corrosive cleaner. Check the hinges and locking mechanism annually for smooth operation; applying a light machine oil to the hinges can help maintain fluid movement over time.
