Product Overview: 48-Tray Secure Beech Cabinet

Restore visual calm to your most chaotic learning environments. By combining a massive 48-compartment sorting matrix with solid, lockable doors, this 1468mm beech cabinet allows you to systematically organise thousands of items and then neatly hide them from view at the turn of a key.

The Cobolt Advantage

  • Unrivalled Enclosed Volume: The interior houses four columns of twelve shallow trays, providing forty-eight individual slots for student portfolios, art materials, or IT components—all kept securely out of sight.
  • Absolute Access Control: Outfitted with robust double doors and a central locking mechanism, this heavy-duty cupboard ensures expensive equipment and confidential data remain strictly off-limits to unauthorised personnel.
  • Monumental Stability: Weighing in at a highly stable 107kg, the frame is engineered from dense 18mm MFC to ensure the cabinet doors hang perfectly straight and the internal shelves never bow under heavy payloads.

Organisation & Sustainability

  • Concealed Colour Coding: Organise the interior using any of our 23 vibrant tray colours, creating a highly functional sorting system that remains hidden behind a professional beech exterior.
  • Ethical Forestry: Proudly manufactured in our Welsh facility using 85% recycled timber. Our supply chain dictates that five new saplings are planted for every tree felled.
  • A Zero-Waste Commitment: Aligning with the eco-targets of modern educational trusts, 100% of this unit—from the wooden carcass to the plastic trays—is fully recyclable.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Honest Carriage Policies: We absorb the cost of heavy freight, offering Free Mainland UK Delivery on every order so your departmental budgets are never hit with hidden fees.
  • 50 Years of Mastery: We leverage half a century of manufacturing insight to build commercial furniture that consistently survives the rigorous "school test."
  • Expert B2B Logistics: Whether outfitting a single prep room or an entire newly constructed wing, our UK-based team is poised to manage your complex deliveries.

Ideal Environments for the 48-Tray Lockable Cupboard

Because it expertly hides visual chaos, this secure unit is highly sought after in Multi-Use Primary Classrooms to lock away messy craft supplies at the end of the day. It also functions flawlessly as a secure component vault in Secondary IT Suites and Science Labs, where dozens of small, valuable items need to be catalogued and safeguarded.

Key Features

  • 48 Secure Shallow Trays — A colossal 4x12 grid of 76mm deep bins, precisely sized to keep A4 documents, workbooks, and tablets flat and protected.
  • Solid Lockable Doors — Full-height double doors equipped with a reliable locking system to instantly secure the cabinet's entire contents.
  • Classic Beech Woodgrain — A timeless, highly durable laminate finish that effortlessly masks daily fingerprints, scuffs, and classroom wear.
  • 2mm ABS Protective Bumpers — A thick plastic rim applied to the cabinet's edges to prevent structural splintering from accidental impacts.
  • 1468mm Mid-Height Profile — Delivers maximum storage density while keeping the top surface accessible for lightweight displays or teacher use.
  • 23 Bespoke Tray Shades — Brighten the interior with primary colours, or opt for translucent tints to identify contents without pulling the trays out.
  • Hygienic Melamine Seal — The non-porous exterior actively repels moisture and ink, making end-of-day wipe-downs rapid and effective.
  • 100% Pre-Constructed — Bypasses flat-pack frustration entirely; the unit is delivered fully assembled by professionals and ready for immediate loading.

Product FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are the doors and all 48 trays included in the price?

A: Yes. This product is a complete package. The listed price encompasses the heavy-duty 107kg beech cabinet, the lockable doors, the runners, and all 48 shallow trays in your preferred colour.

Q: What are the exact dimensions of the trays?

A: Each tray measures 312mm (W) x 425mm (D) x 76mm (H). This is the classic single-depth standard, precisely proportioned to hold A4 worksheets flat without curling the edges.

Q: Are the doors fully lockable?

A: Yes. The double doors feature a secure central lock, transforming this tray unit into a highly secure vault for expensive classroom equipment or private pupil data. Keys are included.

Q: Given the 107kg weight, will we have to build this ourselves?

A: Not at all. We save your school time and hassle by delivering this enormous cabinet 100% fully assembled by our factory professionals. It arrives ready for immediate deployment.

Q: What is the benefit of the traditional Beech finish?

A: Beech is a classic educational staple because its mid-tone woodgrain is exceptionally forgiving. It expertly masks daily fingerprints, minor scuffs, and dust, keeping the unit looking newer for longer.

Q: Are the materials used in this cabinet sustainable?

A: Incredibly sustainable. The boards are sourced via FSC-certified partners, consist of 85% recycled timber, and five new trees are planted for every one utilised.

Q: Can I arrange for this to be delivered to a residential address?

A: We are afraid not. Due to the severe 107kg weight and the commercial-grade freight vehicles required, we are strictly limited to delivering to schools, NHS sites, or registered businesses.

Q: What components are protected by the 5-year warranty?

A: The 5-year commercial guarantee comprehensively covers your school against structural failures in the wooden carcass, edge peeling, and manufacturing faults in the hinges, locks, and tray runner system.
