High-Security COSHH Cupboards for Hazardous Substance Storage
QMP COSHH security cupboards provide reinforced, lockable storage for hazardous substances in workplaces where stronger protection against unauthorised access is required. Suitable for laboratories, factories, workshops, maintenance departments, production areas and controlled industrial environments, the range supports the secure organisation of chemicals identified through a workplace COSHH assessment.
Each cupboard is manufactured in the UK from fully welded 1.5 mm powder-coated mild steel. A seven-lever safe lock, full-length heavy-duty hinges and concealed fixings provide a higher level of physical access protection than a standard chemical storage cupboard. The graphite grey finish with Germ Guard Active Technology paint creates a durable surface for demanding commercial and industrial settings.
Adjustable galvanised spill-retaining shelves allow the internal layout to be adapted for different container sizes. An integral liquid-tight sump helps restrict the spread of minor leaks within the cupboard, while supplied warning labels make the intended storage purpose clear to employees and authorised users.
Five COSHH security cupboard sizes are available, ranging from compact 900 mm-high models to full-height 1800 mm cupboards with up to three adjustable shelves. Choose the appropriate model according to the number, dimensions and weight of the containers, the available floor space and the storage controls identified by the site risk assessment.
A secure cupboard can support COSHH storage and access controls, but the cabinet alone does not establish compliance. Before ordering, review the relevant safety data sheets, chemical classifications, storage quantities, container materials and segregation requirements. Acids, alkalis, oxidising agents, flammable liquids and other incompatible substances may require separately selected cabinets.

COSHH Security Cupboard FAQs
What is a COSHH security cupboard?
A COSHH security cupboard is a reinforced, lockable cabinet for hazardous substances where stronger protection against unauthorised access is required. Typical locations include laboratories, factories, workshops, maintenance departments and controlled industrial storage areas.
How does a COSHH security cupboard differ from a standard COSHH cupboard?
The QMP security range uses fully welded 1.5 mm mild steel, seven-lever safe locks, full-length heavy-duty hinges and concealed fixings. These features provide stronger physical access protection than a standard workplace chemical-storage cupboard.
View our standard COSHH cupboards where the additional security construction is not required.
Which COSHH security cupboard sizes are available?
Five cupboard sizes are available:
- 900 × 460 × 460 mm with one shelf
- 1200 × 900 × 460 mm with two shelves
- 1200 × 1200 × 460 mm with two shelves
- 1800 × 900 × 460 mm with three shelves
- 1800 × 1200 × 460 mm with three shelves
Choose the size according to the number, dimensions and weight of the containers, the available floor space and the requirements identified through the workplace risk assessment.
What locking system is fitted to QMP COSHH security cupboards?
Each cupboard is fitted with a seven-lever safe lock. The lock, welded steel construction, heavy-duty hinges and concealed fixings help restrict access to authorised personnel.
Do COSHH security cupboards include spill containment?
Yes. The cupboards include adjustable galvanised spill-retaining shelves and an integral liquid-tight sump. These features help restrict minor leaks inside the cabinet but do not replace compatible containers, routine inspections, absorbent materials or workplace spill-response procedures.
Does purchasing a COSHH security cupboard make a workplace compliant?
No. A secure cupboard can support storage and access controls identified through a COSHH assessment, but the cupboard alone does not establish compliance. Employers must also assess exposure risks, follow safety data sheets, label containers correctly and maintain suitable handling, inspection and emergency procedures.
Browse the wider chemical safety cabinet range for other workplace storage options.
Can different hazardous substances be stored in the same cupboard?
Only substances confirmed as compatible through their safety data sheets and the workplace risk assessment should be stored together. Acids, alkalis, oxidising agents, flammable liquids and other incompatible substances may require separate cabinets.
For corrosive substances, compare the acid and alkali cupboard range. For other securely controlled chemicals, see our hazardous security cupboards .
Are COSHH security cupboards fire resistant?
A reaction-to-fire classification does not mean that the cupboard provides a tested period of fire resistance. Do not assume that a COSHH security cupboard is suitable for flammable-liquid storage without checking the substance safety data sheet, product specification and workplace risk assessment.
Are QMP COSHH security cupboards manufactured in the UK?
Yes. QMP COSHH security cupboards are designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom for professional workplace use. They have a graphite grey powder-coated finish with Germ Guard Active Technology paint.

How are COSHH security cupboards delivered?
Delivery is normally made kerbside to an accessible mainland UK address. Larger cupboards may arrive palletised on a commercial vehicle, and suitable unloading arrangements may be required.
Contact Total Locker Service before ordering where there are restricted-access, timed-delivery, unloading or FORS requirements. See our delivery and returns information for further details.

Security and Access Control
The welded cabinet body, seven-lever safe lock, heavy-duty hinges and concealed fixings provide stronger physical access protection than a standard COSHH cupboard. Access should remain restricted to authorised personnel and managed through the site chemical-storage procedures.
Spill Containment
The galvanised spill-retaining shelves and integral sump help restrict minor leaks within the cupboard. They do not replace compatible containers, routine inspections, suitable absorbent materials or a documented spill-response procedure.
Chemical Compatibility
Review each substance safety data sheet before storage. Consider the chemical classification, concentration, quantity, container material and compatibility with other substances. Acids, alkalis, oxidising agents, flammable liquids and other incompatible materials may require separate storage.
For corrosive substances, compare the acid and alkali cupboard range. For other reinforced chemical storage, see our hazardous security cupboards .
COSHH Responsibilities
A security cupboard can support the storage and access controls identified through a COSHH assessment, but the cupboard alone does not establish compliance. Employers must also assess exposure risks, label containers correctly and maintain appropriate handling, inspection and emergency procedures.
Reaction-to-Fire Classification
Where an EN 13501-1 reaction-to-fire classification applies, it describes how the classified product reacts when exposed to fire. It does not provide a tested fire-resistance period and should not be interpreted as automatic suitability for storing flammable liquids.
Ordering and Delivery
Before ordering, check the selected cupboard dimensions, doorway widths, available floor space and unloading arrangements. Larger models may arrive palletised and normally require suitable equipment or personnel for kerbside unloading.
Compare standard COSHH cupboards, browse the wider chemical safety cabinet range or view other QMP workplace storage products.
