A counter display cabinet is the last thing a customer looks at before they buy. The DHC1004BK puts high-value merchandise behind lockable glass, under eight LED spotlights, in a black anodised aluminium frame.

| Jewellery, Watches, Fine Gifts | High-value merchandise displayed behind lockable glass at point of sale. The 8 LEDs catch light on precious metals and gemstones. The black frame creates contrast that makes each item stand forward. Sliding doors let staff present items to customers without removing the security barrier entirely. |

The black frame recedes and places the objects in the foreground. Fire certification meets public building requirements. Lockable doors protect irreplaceable items. |
| Exhibition Stands, Events, Trade Shows | Product launches, sample displays and branded showcases at exhibition stands. The 1000mm width fits standard stand layouts.

The same counter cabinet is available in a silver frame for lighter interiors. For a wider display, the 1200mm silver counter cabinet provides additional width with the same specification.

Displaysense DHC1004BK Black Aluminium Glass Counter Display Cabinet. 900mm H x 1000mm W x 500mm D. 45kg. Black anodised aluminium frame. Toughened glass. Two adjustable 5mm tempered glass shelves (948mm x 472mm), 12kg each, plus solid base shelf. 8 integrated LED spotlights. Lockable sliding glass doors. Adjustable feet. UK 3-pin plug with rocker switch. BS 5852:2006 fire certified. Displaysense exclusive, designed and manufactured. Suitable for jewellery, watches, electronics, museums, galleries, exhibitions, hotels, corporate, collectables. Trusted by Harrods, Selfridges and Goodwood. Also available in silver. Displaysense since 1978.
A counter display cabinet occupies the most valuable position in any retail or exhibition environment: the point where the customer is closest to the merchandise and closest to the transaction. The cabinet puts that position to work. Eight integrated LED spotlights illuminate three display levels across the full 1000mm width, presenting every item under even, focused light that overhead store lighting cannot replicate inside a glass case. Jewellery catches light at the angle the customer sees it. Watch dials reflect. Branded packaging shows its actual colour rather than the warm-shifted approximation that ambient retail lighting produces. The black anodised aluminium frame creates contrast that pushes every item forward against a dark surround.
The lockable sliding glass doors are the security mechanism that lets merchandise stay visible while remaining protected. Staff slide the doors open to present an item, demonstrate a feature or hand over a purchase, then slide them closed and lock. The sliding mechanism requires no swing clearance behind the counter or into the customer's space, which is a practical advantage in the tight layout of a sales counter, a reception desk or an exhibition stand where every centimetre is accounted for. Keys are supplied as standard. In environments where the public is within arm's reach of high-value stock, the lock is the difference between display and loss prevention. The doors glide smoothly on their track and close with a positive action that feels substantial rather than flimsy.
Two adjustable 5mm tempered glass shelves sit on height-adjustable supports, each carrying up to 12kg evenly distributed. The solid base shelf provides a third display level. Three tiers across 1000mm create a layered, tiered presentation that maximises the visual impact of the merchandise inside the cabinet. Adjust the shelf heights to suit the items on display: taller items on the base, shorter items on the upper shelves, or even spacing for a uniform grid of products. The shelf dimensions at 948mm x 472mm provide a display area close to the full interior width and depth of the cabinet.
The black anodised aluminium frame resists scratches, corrosion and fingerprints under daily commercial use. At 45kg the cabinet is substantial enough to feel permanent on a counter position. Adjustable feet level the cabinet on any surface, including the uneven temporary flooring of exhibition stands and event venues. UK 3-pin plug with a rocker on/off switch means the LEDs are operational the moment the cabinet is positioned and plugged in. Fire tested to BS 5852:2006 for commercial and public environments. Displaysense exclusive, designed and manufactured. Trusted by Harrods, Selfridges and Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Q: How many shelves does this cabinet have?
A: Two adjustable 5mm tempered glass shelves (948mm x 472mm) plus a solid base shelf, giving three display levels across the full 1000mm width. Each glass shelf supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. Adjust the shelf heights to suit the items on display: taller items on the base level, shorter items above, or even spacing for a uniform product grid.
Q: How do the sliding doors work?
A: The glass doors slide horizontally along a track built into the frame. Slide open to access, present or hand over merchandise, then slide closed and lock with the supplied key. The sliding mechanism requires no swing clearance behind the counter or into the customer's space. In the tight layout of a sales counter, a reception desk or an exhibition stand, sliding doors are more practical than hinged doors that swing open and obstruct the aisle or the staff area behind the cabinet.
Q: Is this suitable for jewellery display?
A: Yes. Eight LED spotlights catch light on precious metals and gemstones across all three display levels. The lockable sliding doors provide security at the point of sale where customers are closest to the merchandise. The black frame creates contrast that makes jewellery stand forward. This is the same cabinet specification trusted by Harrods and Selfridges.
Q: How is the LED lighting powered?
A: UK 3-pin fused plug with a convenient on/off rocker switch. Plug in, switch on, the eight LEDs illuminate immediately. No hardwiring, no electrician, no specialist installation. The plug-and-go setup suits both permanent retail positions and temporary exhibition stands where time on build day is limited.
Q: Is this fire certified?
A: Yes. BS 5852:2006 fire certified on the complete assembly. The certificate is downloadable immediately and can be forwarded directly to procurement and compliance teams. In retail, hospitality, education, NHS and public sector environments where fire compliance is a purchasing prerequisite, this certification clears the procurement barrier. Uncertified counter cabinets cannot pass this requirement regardless of how well they display the merchandise.
Q: Is this suitable for an exhibition stand?
A: Yes. The 1000mm width fits standard exhibition stand layouts without consuming excessive floor space. Adjustable feet level the cabinet on the uneven temporary flooring typical of exhibition halls and event venues. Flat-packed delivery means the cabinet stores compactly between events. The plug-and-go LED setup with UK 3-pin plug and rocker switch means the display is illuminated the moment it is positioned and plugged in, with no electrician or hardwiring required on build day.
Q: Can I use this for collectables and memorabilia?
A: Yes. Figures, limited editions, trading cards, watches, gaming memorabilia and high-value collectables display behind lockable glass with LED accent lighting across three levels. The counter-height format lets customers and visitors browse the collection at close range without being able to handle the items. The black frame creates the same gallery-style contrast that dedicated display cases provide.
Q: Will the black finish show fingerprints?
A: The anodised aluminium surface resists fingerprints better than painted or powder-coated finishes. The anodising process creates a hard, integrated surface that maintains its appearance under daily commercial handling. Clean with a soft damp cloth.
Q: Does it arrive assembled or flat-packed?
A: Flat-packed for safe transport. Assembly is straightforward with all fixings and instructions included. Two people are recommended for handling the glass panels and positioning the assembled cabinet.
Q: Can the LED spotlights be replaced?
A: The LEDs are pre-installed and designed for long-term use. LED spotlights have a significantly longer lifespan than traditional bulbs. Contact the Displaysense team for advice if replacement is eventually needed.
Q: Is this available in silver?
A: Yes. The same 1000mm counter cabinet is available in a silver anodised aluminium frame for lighter retail interiors and neutral exhibition stand designs. Same shelves, same LEDs, same sliding doors and fire certification. Choose the frame colour that suits your environment.
Q: How is this delivered?
A: Free delivery to UK mainland addresses. The cabinet ships flat-packed with all glass panels, shelves, LED spotlights, keys, adjustable feet, UK plug and assembly instructions included.
