Viewable key cabinets

Designed in partnership with specialist manufacturers such as Securikey, these cabinets meet the storage needs of police stations, ambulance services, facilities management teams, estate offices, fire stations, and transport hubs.

Internally, the cabinets feature adjustable hook bars that are colour-coded and numbered, enabling easy reconfiguration to suit different key sizes and categories. Whether managing 24, 30, or 50 keys, the system supports structured labelling with matching key tags and indexing strips.

Each hook bar can be moved vertically within the cabinet, and optional indexing panels are supplied to assist with quick referencing and return. The colour-coded key tags are designed so that key numbers remain visible when hung.

Security and Locking Options

Every viewable key cabinet includes a standard security cam lock and is supplied with two keys. Where higher levels of control are needed, mechanical combination locks or electronic digital keypads can be fitted on request. Electronic locking allows for multiple users with individual access codes, ideal for facilities with shift work or layered access privileges.

Fixings are included for secure wall-mounting, and each cabinet is designed to be installed flush against a wall with no rear gaps, ensuring tamper resistance. The flush closing rim further enhances security by minimising leverage points.

Cabinet Capacities

The viewable key cabinet range is available in multiple capacities:

• 24 keys – Compact design suitable for small offices or secure rooms
• 30 keys – Popular for public sector and service buildings
• 50 keys – Ideal for estate management, logistics, or vehicle fleets

Larger volume models are available by request, including system cabinets up to 600 keys or secure vault options for higher value applications.

Operational Benefits

The transparent door panel reduces administrative overhead by allowing supervisors to conduct spot-checks without physically accessing the contents. This helps prevent key loss, misplacement, or unauthorised withdrawal by visually identifying discrepancies in real-time.

In high-traffic facilities, the cabinets improve workflow by reducing the time taken to locate, retrieve, and return keys. When integrated into shift-based environments such as hospitals, train depots, or maintenance hubs, the visibility panel supports clear accountability and audit compliance.

Combined with sturdy construction and reliable locking, the cabinet’s layout promotes better inventory control and reinforces responsibility among keyholders.
