Security cabinets
Optimum theft protection and appealing presentation thanks to WALDIS security cabinets.
The WALDIS security cabinet is the innovative security and goods display concept. It was developed and manufactured in close compliance with the security requirements relevant to safe production.
Function and design of our security cabinets
Careful consideration has been given to how the WALDIS security cabinet works. The cabinet system has a modular structure with flexible dimensions, making it ideal for integration into the store concept. The shelving/filing system integrated into the WALDIS security cabinet is height-adjustable in a grid of 50 mm and can be combined with all shelving systems commonly used in shopfitting. The housing is powder-coated and can be supplied in all available RAL colours.
WALDIS security cabinets are used in particular to store expensive retail products such as tobacco, spirits, perfumes, razorblades, lubricants, mobile phones, chemicals, medicines, etc. They can be securely locked with a robust locking mechanism which makes access during a break-in attempt almost impossible.

Why security cabinets?
An essential equipment element for retail

Security and product display cabinets are equipment elements that are particularly essential for storing high-priced products in the retail trade. Whether perfumes, tobacco products, or electronic devices such as smartphones, headphones, laptops, or cameras: While all of these products must be in stock in the store, they cannot be stored openly like other products without additional security measures. The risk of theft is simply too high.
Not only do these products have high material value, they can also be resold and monetized quickly and without great effort, often without any possible traceability. Due to these characteristics, they are among the most popular stolen goods and must be protected accordingly – especially outside of store opening hours.
Although many stores have modern security systems such as alarm systems and video surveillance, there remains a significant risk of burglary. Even with these protective measures, a brief, unobserved moment is often all it takes to empty a cupboard. Such a break-in can not only cause significant financial damage, but also poses the risk that the perpetrators will return or target other stores if their tactic is successful. The resulting costs for repairs, replacement, and increased security measures can be substantial.
For these reasons, a proactive security strategy is crucial. High-quality security cabinets specifically designed for retail offer an effective solution. Their size, design, and features can be flexibly adapted to different store concepts and requirements. A particularly important feature is the RC3 or RC4-certified roller shutter door, which has been specifically tested against burglary attempts. This certification according to the EN1627 standard guarantees high resistance, meaning burglars lose valuable time attempting to force open the cabinet. Since perpetrators usually have to flee within a few minutes before the police arrive, this delay leads to the break-in attempt being aborted, and the burglars have to escape without any stolen goods.
By using such specially designed security cabinets, valuable retail products can be effectively protected from theft and the security level in the store can be sustainably increased.

For high-cost retail products such as tobacco, spirits, perfumes, razorblades, lubricants, mobile phones, chemicals, medicines, etc.

FAQ
What is a security cabinet suitable for?
Security cabinets are suitable for the safekeeping and storage of products that require secure access. These can include high-priced retail products such as perfumes, tobacco products, cell phones, or other electronic devices, as well as medications or toxic substances that cannot be stored in a freely accessible manner. Thanks to the locking mechanism and the burglar-proof roller door with RC3 or RC4 certification, the items are accessible only to authorized personnel.
What are the uses for security cabinets?
The uses for safety cabinets are very diverse. Simply put, they can be used anywhere there are objects, materials, or substances that cannot or should not be stored in a freely accessible manner and require more protection than a simple lockable cabinet would provide. These include, for example:
- Laboratories
For the secure storage of chemicals - Industry and trade
For the storage of expensive equipment or machinery that needs to be protected from theft - Medicine and pharmacy
For the storage of medications and other controlled substances - Retail businesses
For the secure storage and safekeeping of high-value items that are particularly vulnerable to theft
Is a safety cabinet the same as a hazardous substance cabinet
No. The term security cabinet is often used as a synonym for hazardous materials cabinet. Strictly speaking, however, hazardous materials cabinets are only one type of safety storage cabinet. Not all safety storage cabinets are automatically hazardous materials cabinets.
As the name suggests, hazardous materials cabinets are specifically designed for the storage of hazardous substances and liquids that must be stored under special conditions because they are highly flammable, toxic, corrosive, or reactive. Consequently, they pose a health and safety risk in the workplace if not stored properly. Depending on the work area and use, the types of hazardous materials cabinets differ, as their safety attributes are precisely tailored to the specific hazardous material.
Cabinets with special fire-resistant doors are used for the storage of flammable liquids. Chemical storage cabinets are often equipped with drip trays to directly collect toxic or flammable liquids should they leak. Ventilation or filters are often required for hazardous material storage. These are connected directly to or integrated into the cabinet to prevent the release of toxic gases or remove dangerous vapors and particles from the air. Hazardous material cabinets therefore make a significant contribution to occupational safety.
Since there are strict regulations governing the storage of hazardous materials, interested parties should definitely consult an industry specialist for advice. WALDIS security cabinets are primarily designed to protect valuable or confidential items or documents from break-ins or attempted theft. We are happy to advise you at any time if you have any questions about valuables protection.
