FAQs
Does this mobile ventilated rigging cabinet require assembly after delivery?
No. This cabinet ships fully assembled from Louisville, KY and is ready to use immediately upon delivery. No on-site assembly is required.
Where is this cabinet manufactured?
This cabinet is manufactured by Strong Hold in Louisville, KY, using American-made 12-gauge steel. Strong Hold designs, engineers, and fabricates all rigging cabinets at its Louisville facility.
What is the lead time for this cabinet?
The typical lead time is 4 weeks from order. These cabinets are manufactured to order and generally take approximately 10 days to manufacture before shipment.
What is the purpose of the ventilated doors on both the front and back?
This cabinet features ventilated door panels on both the front and back, creating cross-ventilation through the full depth of the cabinet. This design maximizes airflow around stored rigging gear, helping prevent moisture buildup and corrosion — especially important for slings and chains that may be damp after use. The perforated panels also allow supervisors and inspectors to visually verify gear status from either side without unlocking the doors.
What interior storage features does this cabinet include?
This cabinet includes 25 total adjustable hangers and 5 rows of adjustable hooks, giving you a flexible interior layout that can be configured for different chain lengths, sling widths, and gear types. At 36 inches deep, the cabinet provides 12 inches more interior depth than the standard 24-inch ventilated model, accommodating bulkier rigging equipment and allowing gear to hang without contacting the doors.
Is this cabinet mobile?
Yes. This cabinet is equipped with heavy-duty casters for easy movement and forklift pockets for transport across larger facilities. The combination of casters and forklift pockets makes it one of the most mobile rigging cabinets in the line, designed for operations that need to reposition rigging storage between work areas, job sites, or maintenance bays.
How does this model compare to the other ventilated-door rigging cabinet (47-VBS-240-21H)?
Both cabinets feature ventilated doors and interior hangers for rigging storage. The key differences are depth, mobility, door count, and interior configuration. The 47-VBS-240-21H is 24 inches deep, 90 inches tall, has 2 ventilated doors on the front, stationary legs, and short/long hangers. This model is 36 inches deep, 92 inches tall, has 4 ventilated doors (front and back), rides on casters with forklift pockets, and includes 25 adjustable hangers plus 5 rows of adjustable hooks. Choose this model if you need deeper storage, full cross-ventilation, and the ability to move the cabinet between work areas.
Why is this cabinet 36 inches deep instead of 24 inches?
The 36-inch depth provides 50% more interior space than the standard 24-inch models. This extra depth accommodates bulkier rigging gear such as large shackles, hoists, and multi-leg sling assemblies that may not fit comfortably in a 24-inch deep cabinet. It also allows gear on the adjustable hangers to hang freely without pressing against the front or rear doors. Verify that your floor space and doorway widths can accommodate the 36-inch depth before ordering.
Is this cabinet suitable for outdoor use?
No. This 12-gauge powder-coated steel cabinet is designed for indoor industrial use only. While the ventilated doors provide airflow, they also allow moisture and contaminants to enter the cabinet in outdoor conditions. For outdoor storage requirements, contact Barron Equipment to discuss corrosion-resistant options.
What is the return policy on this cabinet?
Barron Equipment offers refunds within 30 days of the invoice date. Products returned for reasons other than warranty correction are subject to a 50% restocking fee plus freight charges incurred by Barron Equipment. Custom-specified products and clearance items are excluded from returns.
Are bulk purchasing discounts available?
Yes. Bulk purchasing discounts are available. Contact Barron Equipment using the form on the product page or via LiveChat to discuss pricing for multiple units.
Does this cabinet support OSHA 1926.251 compliance?
This cabinet is designed to help facilities maintain compliance with OSHA 1926.251, which requires rigging equipment to be removed from the immediate work area when not in use and inspected prior to each shift. The ventilated door panels on both front and back allow visual gear verification from either side without breaking the lock, making pre-shift inspection faster. The 3-point locking system secures equipment against unauthorized access. This cabinet does not certify OSHA compliance — compliance obligations remain with the employer.
Is this cabinet available in a different color?
Yes. This cabinet is available in 12 powder-coat color options including Dark Gray, Dusty Gray, Black, White, Brown, Beige, Blue, Red, Orange, Yellow, Light Blue, and Teal. Select your preferred color from the dropdown on the product page.
