Product Information
Full details
The Armorgard DrumBank Enclosed Storage Unit is designed for site managers and industrial professionals who need a COSHH-compliant, fire-resistant solution for storing hazardous liquids. It provides maximum security for IBC containers and oil drums, though its robust steel construction and 1100-litre sump make it a heavy, semi-permanent piece of equipment that requires forklift access for relocation.

FAQs
Does the unit meet fire safety standards?
Yes, it is designed and built to specification for 30-minute fire resistance.
Can I store different types of chemicals together?
You should check your local COSHH guidelines regarding chemical compatibility before storing mixed substances in the same unit.
What is the total capacity of the containment sump?
The integrated, fully welded sump has a capacity of 1100 litres.
How do I move the unit once it is loaded?
You should not move the unit while it is loaded. Use a forklift under the integrated skids only when the unit is empty to ensure safety.
Is the unit weather-resistant?
Yes, the unit features a powder-coated charcoal finish that provides excellent protection against corrosion and environmental wear.
Troubleshooting
Doors are difficult to open or close
Check the gas struts for signs of hydraulic fluid leakage or mechanical failure and ensure the unit is level on the ground.
Lock is sticking
Apply a graphite-based lubricant to the 5-lever deadlock and check for any debris inside the locking mechanism.
Sump is accumulating water or debris
Remove the steel grid flooring and clear the sump. Ensure the doors are fully closed and sealed when not in use to prevent rain ingress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the unit, ensure the ground is level and capable of supporting the weight of the unit plus the total weight of the loaded IBC or drums. Use the integrated forklift skids for positioning. Because the unit features a powder-coated finish, it is resistant to harsh weather, but it is recommended to inspect the exterior periodically for scratches or paint chips, touching them up with rust-inhibiting paint to maintain longevity. Regularly remove the steel grids to inspect the sump for debris or liquid accumulation, and clean as required to maintain environmental compliance.
