Cabinets

Heavy-Duty R Cabinet

Let's first take a look at our bestseller: the R toolbox. It's the strongest of all our products with a load capacity of 400lb. per drawer, and it can be used to store all your equipment in the same unit. The R cabinet is ideal for the toughest tasks in the automotive, manufacturing, mining and defense industries. By adding a suitable work surface for the tasks being performed, you have a complete workstation. By adding utility panels to the sides, you can always keep your tools within easy reach and ready to use. And with the integrated lock-in mechanism and One-Drawer-at-a-Time system for the drawers, you can move the toolbox between locations in complete safety and security.


L Compact Cabinet

The L Compact Mobile Cabinet has a unique 18" width and a load capacity of 100lb. per drawer. It's perfect for less hostile environments like hospitals, laboratories, offices and classrooms. Did you know you can join two or three L cabinet units together? By taking advantage of this option to create a toolbox 36" or 54" wide, you will find it easier to transport and store smaller parts and tools.


Shelving

Spider Mobile Shelving

As for Spider® Shelving and Mini-Racking, they are a great option for transporting large quantities of equipment and bulky items safely and securely. By adding rails and hooks, you have the ideal solution for when you need to store and transport items of many different shapes and sizes. Your warehouse storekeeper will really love the ability to easily move large volumes of parts and boxes. With this option, you have a load capacity of 1,000lb. per unit.


Workstations & Freestanding Stations

Mobile workbench

The mobile versions of our workstations offer many benefits to users. For example, you can move your workbench to an installation location or transport a part to a repair station. The possibilities are further expanded with the wide choice of work surfaces available, such as laminated hardwood, plastic laminate, stainless steel and painted steel. This solution is popular in the aeronautics sector where large parts are commonplace. Mobility is also invaluable for fast reconfiguration of a workspace.
