Flammable materials cabinets provide designated storage for flammable and combustible liquids in workplaces that handle paints, solvents, fuels, chemicals, and other flammable materials. Choose from flammable safety cabinets, drum storage cabinets, and paint and ink cabinets in a range of sizes and configurations for different storage needs.
| Cabinet Type | Designed For | Common Configurations |
|---|---|---|
| Flammable Safety Cabinets | Flammable and combustible liquids in containers | Standard, compact, countertop, undercounter, slimline, stackable, wall mount, outdoor |
| Drum Storage Flammable Safety Cabinets | Larger barrels and drums of flammable or combustible materials | Single- and multiple-drum configurations and hazmat storage |
| Paint & Ink Flammable Safety Cabinets | Paints, inks, and related combustible materials | Full height, counter height, wall mount |
Flammable safety cabinets are available for storing containers of flammable and combustible materials in designated storage areas. Options include standard full-height cabinets as well as compact, countertop, undercounter, slimline, stackable, wall-mount, outdoor, and other specialized configurations.
Cabinets are available in different capacities and may include features such as adjustable shelves, locking doors, self-closing doors, ventilation components, grounding connections, and spill containment. Features vary by model, so review the product specifications to confirm the configuration and capacity required for your application.
Drum storage cabinets are designed for larger barrel containers of flammable and combustible materials. Available models accommodate one or more 30- or 55-gallon drums, depending on the cabinet configuration.
When selecting a drum cabinet, consider drum size and quantity, cabinet dimensions, loading access, available floor space, and spill containment. Some models include drum rollers or supports to make loading and unloading easier.
Paint and ink cabinets provide designated storage for paints, inks, and related combustible materials. Available configurations include full-height, counter-height, and wall-mount cabinets for different storage volumes and workspace requirements.
Consider the size and quantity of containers being stored, available space, shelf configuration, door style, and other features when selecting a cabinet.
Start with the material being stored, then determine the amount, container size, available space, and cabinet configuration needed.
| Selection Factor | What to Consider |
|---|---|
| Material stored | Identify the flammable or combustible materials and their storage requirements |
| Storage capacity | Determine the total quantity and number and size of containers |
| Container type | Check whether the cabinet is intended for cans, containers, drums, or other specific formats |
| Available space | Consider floor, counter, undercounter, wall, or outdoor installation space |
| Cabinet configuration | Compare full-height, compact, countertop, undercounter, slimline, stackable, wall-mount, and outdoor options |
| Door style | Compare manual-close and self-closing configurations |
| Construction | Review cabinet material, gauge, construction, and finish |
| Shelving | Check shelf quantity, adjustability, and weight capacity |
| Spill protection | Look for leakproof sills, sumps, trays, or other containment features where applicable |
| Ventilation | Review the cabinet's vent configuration and any provisions for exhaust connections |
| Regulatory Compliance | Confirm the codes, standards, and local requirements that apply to the material and installation |
Flammable safety cabinets are available in different capacities to accommodate both smaller quantities and larger storage needs. Compact and countertop models can fit into space-constrained work areas, while full-height cabinets provide greater storage capacity.
Undercounter, slimline, wall-mount, and stackable configurations provide additional options when floor space is limited. Outdoor and specialized cabinets are also available for applications that require a different installation or construction.
For larger quantities, drum storage cabinets are designed for specific drum sizes and configurations. Always check the product specifications to confirm the number and size of containers a cabinet can accommodate.
Features vary by cabinet type and model. Depending on the product, options may include steel construction, adjustable shelves, manual-close or self-closing doors, locking mechanisms, ventilation components, grounding connections, and spill containment.
Some cabinets are designed for specific applications or environments, including paint and ink storage, outdoor storage, and drum storage. Select features based on the material being stored and the requirements of the application rather than assuming every cabinet has the same specifications.
