Frequently Asked Questions
Can glass display cabinets be used in schools?
Yes. Our cabinets are built with toughened safety glass to BS EN 12150 and lockable doors, so they are well suited to busy school corridors, receptions and classrooms. Thousands of schools across the UK use them every day, with a range of finishes including wooden and aluminium frames to suit your interior.
What glass is safest for schools?
Tempered safety glass to BS EN 12150 is the standard for schools. If it is ever broken it crumbles into small granular pieces rather than sharp shards, which greatly reduces the risk of injury.
Do schools need locking display cabinets?
We strongly recommend them. Trophies, awards and student work are valuable and often irreplaceable. Integrated cylinder locks keep contents secure while staying fully visible. Browse our locking display cabinets range.
Can we order on a purchase order?
Yes. We accept official purchase orders from schools, academies, colleges and universities. Contact our team on 01279 460 460 or help@displaysense.co.uk to set this up.
Where is the best place to position a trophy cabinet?
High-visibility, high-footfall areas work best: main receptions, entrance halls and central corridors. Somewhere visitors, students and parents naturally pass gives your achievements the audience they deserve. Our trophy cabinets are designed for exactly these spaces.
What size cabinet is best for a school reception?
It depends on your space and what you are displaying. Full-height freestanding cabinets make a statement in larger receptions, while countertop and low cabinets suit desks and smaller entrance areas. Our team can advise on the best fit.
How do you display student work safely?
Lockable cabinets with toughened safety glass keep work secure, dust-free and protected from handling, while adjustable shelves let you display everything from artwork and ceramics to project models.
Do you offer trade or bulk pricing for schools?
Yes. We offer competitive pricing for multi-cabinet orders and ongoing education partnerships. Speak to our team for a tailored quote.
