Oversized Flat Storage Cabinets

Our Oversized Flat Tray Storage cabinets are designed for maximum utility, providing excellent dust and water protection for your collection. In fact, they’re manufactured to be total solutions unto themselves. They’re accessible, versatile, mobile and eminently durable…all key principles within our total systems philosophy. For example, your objects can be placed on fully removable trays for flat storage placement and can be configured as needed…and changed when your needs change. Also, the tray’s structural frame is constructed of rigid, lightweight aluminum for ease of access, ease of movement, and to meet conservation requirements. In addition, the cloth tray surface allows efficient air migration.

We pioneered the use of double walled aluminum construction in order to achieve optimal strength, durability and mobility…while reducing the overall weight of the storage system. This construction enables our cabinets to be very large…with full access front and rear…and still roll easily on their casters. The inert anodized aluminum construction is maintenance-free with no surfaces to outgas. This eliminates potential hazards to your collections.

The combination of materials and manufacturing techniques from our aerospace design background make our Oversized Flat Tray Storage Cabinets an ideal solution for virtually any collection. Our cabinets can be assembled on-site, as needed.
