In dealing with flammable materials, it is incredibly risky and unwise to use standard storage cabinets. Safely containing and/or segregating hazardous or flammable liquids with safety cabinets can significantly reduce the risk of fire or other accidents in the workplace, says A Plus Warehouse, a premier wholesale distributor and leading national material handling dealer.
A Word from the President
"Our regular storage cabinets work great to store paper and office supplies, but those things won’t blow up in your face! The smartest way to pick a safety cabinet is to look at what the law requires. Beyond the scope of the law, we always recommend auto-closing safety cabinets over manual units," said Ed Stairman, president of A Plus Warehouse. "Auto close safety cabinets have fusible links that hold the doors open. These metallic links melt at a relatively low temperature and the spring-loaded doors close themselves in the event of a fire."
