Add-On Fire Safety Cabinets Questions

Add-on fire safety cabinets are designed to be added on to or stacked on an existing safety cabinet to increase storage capacity. These cabinets are ideal for those who need more storage space, but do not have the floor space to accommodate a larger fire safety cabinet. Add-on fire safety cabinets are available in a variety of sizes and colors, making it easy to match an existing fire safety cabinet. They are designed to meet the same fire safety standards as stand-alone cabinets, and can store flammable liquids and hazardous materials safely. The following set of questions and answers explain the benefits of add-on fire safety cabinets, and the rules and guidelines to follow when stacking them.

Can fire safety cabinets be stacked on top of each other?

Eagle Add-on fire safety cabinets are designed to easily stack on top of each other, or provide additional capacity to existing cabinets. These fire cabinets help to expand your current storage system by using underutilized space: either under a bench top or above an existing cabinet. When stacking fire safety cabinets, consider using our wall mount kit model 25950 for additional safety measures to reduce hazards in the workplace. Do not stack anything above 65". Additionally, look for an FM-approved fire safety cabinet that meets NFPA Code 30 and OSHA requirements. This will ensure compliance with national standards and codes.

Where can fire safety cabinets be stored?

You can store approved fire safety cabinets inside. However, there are regulations for how many cabinets are permitted within one single storage area. Quantities in excess must be stored in an inside storage room that meets the required fire-resistance rating set forth in Standard Methods of Fire Test of Building Construction and Material, NFPA 251-1969.

Are there OSHA requirements for stacking fire safety cabinets?

Fire safety cabinets that hold over 30 gallons of flammable liquids should not be stacked on top of each other. This exceeds the approved quantity for stacking flammables per OSHA requirements. Quantities in excess should be stored in an inside storage room.

What are the benefits of purchasing an add-on fire safety cabinet?

Add-on fire safety cabinets are designed to stack above an existing fire cabinet or below a bench top to free up floor space. This increases storage capacity by expanding upon your current system. Plus, it’s cheaper, at times, to purchase an add-on fire safety cabinet versus a full-size fire safety cabinet to store excess flammable liquids. All of Eagle’s Add-on fire safety cabinets are designed to add storage capacity to existing fire safety cabinets. They’re FM-approved, and meet NFPA Code 30 and OSHA requirements.
