Virtually every place of business has occasion to use flammable or combustible liquids. Whether it is a manufacturing or processing plant, laboratory, or commercial institution, fire risks can be reduced by storing hazardous liquids in flammable liquid safety storage cabinets. Safety Cabinets serve several critical functions. First and foremost, they provide heat resistant
enclosure of flammable liquid containers which helps protect both personnel and property from devastating fires.
Cabinets help identify, organize, and segregate dangerous liquids. Often times they can be located near points-of-use, saving time and effort by eliminating frequent trips to a central storage room.

Cabinets help identify, organize, and segregate dangerous liquids. Often times they can be located near points-of-use, saving time and effort by eliminating frequent trips to a central storage room.
To clearly identify contents, safety cabinets include a visible warning label: "Flammable – Keep Fire Away." Labels that are reflective in nature offer an extra measure of safety. When illuminated with a flashlight during power outages or under smoky conditions, the reflective warning label bursts with high visibility, alerting firefighters or employees to the location of hazardous materials.
Finally, safety cabinets improve security against unauthorized use of their potentially destructive contents. Justrite cabinets can be padlocked allowing security to be keyed different, keyed alike, or master keyed for employee convenience.

What Makes a Safety Cabinet Safe?
1 18-gauge (1mm) double wall steel with 1-1/2” (38mm) of insulating air space for fire resistance.
2 Fully welded construction holds squareness for longer life, offering greater protection in a fire since air gaps are reduced.
3 Highly reflective “Flammable – Keep Fire Away” label warns of contents and provides greater visibility when illuminated with a flashlight during fire conditions. Lower reflective label
alerts firefighters when rising smoke might obscure higher points.
4 Rounded corners on doors reduce accidental nicks.
5 On self-close style of cabinet, doors are held open by means of a fusible link. If inadvertently left open, underfire conditions the link will melt at 165°F (74°C) and automatically close doors
6 Stainless steel, 3-point bullet self-latching system provides fail-safe, positive door closure with increased heat resistance.
7 Flush handle accepts padlock or keys to secure contents from unauthorized use; reduces “catches” from passing traffic.
8 Shelves are slightly sloped to direct hazardous spills to back and bottom of leak proof sump. They meet ANSI standards with a 159kg safe allowable load.
9 Welded shelf hangers interlock for safe, “no-slip” stability and adjust on 76 mm centers.
10 Built-in grounding lug accepts optional antistatic wire to safely ground cabinet to earth ground. Optional seismic brackets secure cabinet to floor or wall for an extra measure of
security when increased stability is needed.
11 Dual vents with built-in flame arresters sealed with bung caps.
12 51mm liquid-tight sump safely contains dangerous leaks or spills.
13 Adjustable leveling feet for stability on uneven surfaces.
--->Indicates location of 3-point latching system.
