Steel storage is the sensible choice where laminate will not stand up to the conditions, or where keeping things secure matters more than matching your desks. The range includes Base mobile pedestals and Qube filing cabinets. It is well suited to workshops, schools, warehouse offices and other tough environments across Ireland.
Where steel outlasts laminate
Laminate tends to chip at the edges and swell once water gets in. In a school, a workshop or next to a kitchen, that wear can show within a couple of years. Steel copes with bumps, cleans with a wipe and is unaffected by damp, which is why it is still the standard in hard-working spaces.
Better security
Locking a laminate cupboard will put off a casual look inside. Locking a steel cabinet gives you something much closer to genuine security, which counts for personnel records and other sensitive files.
What you give up
Next to wood-finish desks, steel can look a little institutional. That is no problem in a back office, but it may feel out of place where clients visit. If looks come first, choose Impulse Storage, which is finished to match its own desking. For a full steel system with cabinets, lockers and shelving that line up, see Qube steel storage, or browse filing cabinets and pedestals and drawers.
