Before You Install Your PPE Cabinet

  1.  Select an appropriate location for your PPE cabinet. Some models may be installed indoors, while others are applicable for outdoor installation. Check with us to determine which option you have purchased, if you’re unsure. 
  2. Check the site is flat, level and capable of holding the weight of the filled cabinet.  
  3. Make sure this location is conveniently located near your chemical cabinets or stores, so that staff can gain quick access to the personal protective equipment.  
  4. The cabinet location must not impede emergency exits or evacuation routes.

Ensure your PPE storage cabinet location is flat, level and capable of holding the weight of your cabinet and its contents. 

Installation

  1.  Using a trolley or stair lifter, retrieve the PPE cabinet from the delivery area (leaving the packaging on.)  
  2. Take the cabinet to the installation location and remove the packaging.   
  3. Scan the warranty registration QR code (or enter the link into your browser) and complete the STOREMASTA warranty application form.  
  4. Position the PPE cabinet. 
  5. Check that the doors are closing properly. If they aren’t lining up, consider installing the cabinet on a more even surface. Ensure the key-lockable L handles are operating smoothly.

IMPORTANT: Your personal protective equipment (PPE) must be maintained so you can meet your WHS obligations. We recommend developing a standard operating procedure for your personal protective equipment including what items are used for specific chemicals, when items should be discarded, how they should be cleaned and decontaminated, and how they should be stored in the cabinet.
