800mm Black Glass Storage Display Cabinet with 10 LED Spotlights: Illuminated Display Above, Lockable Storage Below
Most display cabinets do one job. This one does two. The DTK800BK combines a full-height illuminated glass display section with a 500mm lockable base storage compartment in a single black aluminium frame at 1800mm tall and 800mm wide. Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on infinite-position rod track. Ten integrated 6400K daylight LED spotlights. Lockable hinged double doors on the display section. An independently lockable base compartment with its own separate key. Show your best stock above, lock your backup stock below, in one compact footprint. At 800mm the cabinet fits into retail corners, corridor positions and exhibition bays where the wider 1000mm model will not go. Fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12. UK-designed by Displaysense since 1978.
1800mm H x 800mm W x 400mm D. Weight 56kg. Heavy-gauge black aluminium frame. Display section: 4mm toughened glass on sides, rear and doors. Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on continuous rod track, 12kg per shelf. 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side). Lockable hinged double doors with 2 keys. Base storage: 500mm high, opaque, independently lockable. BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified. Freestanding. Self-assembly. Free UK mainland delivery.
Why Display and Storage Belong in One Compact Unit
- 500mm lockable base storage with independent key: The lower compartment is fully enclosed, opaque on all sides and locks independently from the display section above. Backup stock, packaging, accessories or confidential documents stay on hand but completely out of sight. At 800mm wide the base has genuine capacity for larger items that the narrower models cannot accommodate.
- Infinite-position rod track with three display shelves: Three 5mm tempered glass shelves travel a continuous rod track. Slide to any height and lock. No fixed holes. Remove all three for tall items. The black frame at 800mm creates high contrast: every item on the shelves stands forward against a dark ground, lit cleanly by the 10 daylight LEDs.
- 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side): True-colour rendering across the full 800mm interior. Two overhead and eight side-mounted spotlights eliminate shadows at every shelf position. The 6400K daylight temperature renders accurate colour with no warm cast against the black frame.
- BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified: Independently tested on the complete assembly. Certificate downloadable immediately for procurement and compliance teams. The same fire certification as every cabinet in the DTS and DTK ranges.
- 800mm black aluminium frame at 56kg: The compact width fits retail corners, corridor positions and exhibition bays. The black finish creates high contrast. At 56kg the cabinet stands freestanding without wall-fixing. A single person can position it on delivery day.
- UK-designed by Displaysense since 1978: Direct from the supplier. No reseller. The team that supports it knows every detail of the product and the full cabinet range.
Where Display Plus Storage Solves Two Problems at Once
| Retail, Jewellery, Boutique | Product displayed in the illuminated upper section with replenishment stock locked in the base directly below. Staff restock from the same unit. The 800mm width fits into retail corners and between other fixtures without consuming excessive floor space. |
| Salons, Spas, Wellness | Retail products displayed above with treatment accessories, surplus stock or client records secured in the base. The independent locks mean reception staff access the display while the base stays secured for practitioners only. |
| Museums, Galleries, Heritage | Collection display above with handling equipment or conservation materials stored out of sight in the base. The black frame recedes in low-lit gallery environments, placing artefacts in the foreground. Fire certification meets public building requirements. |
| Hospitality, Spirits, Bar Display | Back-bar bottle showcases where black aluminium pairs naturally with warm lighting and dark interiors. The base provides secure storage for bar accessories, glassware or stock directly below the display. |
| Schools, Education, NHS | Trophies and achievements displayed above with management materials locked in the base. BS 5852:2006 fire certification meets institutional procurement requirements. Independent locking suits controlled-access environments. |
| Corporate Reception, Boardrooms | Awards, branded objects and product presentations displayed above with confidential files or equipment stored in the locked base. The black frame suits corporate interiors with dark or high-contrast aesthetic. |
Need Display Only, or a Wider Storage Cabinet?
For display without base storage at 800mm, the DTS800CBK carries four shelves in the same black frame with no base compartment. For more width with storage, the DTK1000BK at 1000mm shares the same specification in a wider footprint.

Displaysense DTK800BK 800mm Black Aluminium Glass Storage Display Cabinet. UK-designed since 1978. 1800mm H x 800mm W x 400mm D. Weight 56kg. Black aluminium frame. Display section: 4mm toughened glass, three 5mm tempered glass shelves on rod track, 12kg per shelf, 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side), lockable hinged double doors, 2 keys. Base storage: 500mm high, opaque, independently lockable. BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified. Freestanding. Self-assembly. Suitable for retail, jewellery, salons, museums, galleries, hospitality, schools, NHS, corporate reception and collectors. Also available at 1000mm (DTK1000BK) and as display-only (DTS800CBK). Free UK mainland pallet delivery. Displaysense, UK display cabinet specialist since 1978.
This cabinet does two jobs within one footprint. Above: a full-height illuminated display section with three 5mm tempered glass shelves, 10 integrated 6400K daylight LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Below: a 500mm lockable base storage compartment with opaque panels on all sides, keeping spare stock, accessories or operational materials completely out of sight. The black aluminium frame at 1800mm tall and 800mm wide runs the full height of most commercial interiors, and at 56kg it stands without wall-fixing. Independently fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12. Designed and supplied by Displaysense, the UK's largest display cabinet specialist since 1978.
The black frame at 800mm does something specific. The wider the cabinet, the more the frame finish defines how the display reads from a distance. At 800mm with a black surround, every item on the three glass shelves stands forward against a dark ground, lit cleanly from above and the sides by 10 daylight LEDs. In a retail environment, a museum display, a hospitality venue or a corporate reception where the display needs to do serious visual work, black at this width is the finish that earns its floor space. The 6400K daylight colour temperature renders accurate colour with no warm cast, which matters for jewellery, branded merchandise and any display where the lighting affects the viewer's perception of what is inside the cabinet.
The base storage compartment is 500mm high and fully opaque on all sides. It locks independently from the display section above: separate key, separate access. Spare retail stock sits immediately below the active display, reachable without a back-of-house trip. In a salon the base holds treatment accessories and client records out of sight. In an office it keeps confidential documents or equipment locked away beneath a branded showcase. The 800mm width gives the storage compartment genuine capacity: it is not a token shelf space but a practical locked unit in its own right, wide enough for larger stock items, equipment, folders and boxed merchandise that the narrower 400mm and 600mm base compartments cannot accommodate. The independent locking means different staff can have different levels of access to the same cabinet.
Inside the display section, the three 5mm tempered glass shelves travel a continuous rod track the full interior height. Slide any shelf to the position you need and lock it without tools. Remove all three to open the full column for a tall centrepiece or installation piece. Each shelf supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. The double doors open completely across the 800mm width for unobstructed loading access. One key secures both simultaneously. Two keys supplied. Fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12 across the complete assembled cabinet.

Questions About This 800mm Black Storage Display Cabinet
Q: What is the difference between the display section and the storage section?
A: The upper display section is a fully illuminated glass cabinet with three adjustable tempered glass shelves, 10 LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Everything inside is visible to viewers. The lower storage section is a 500mm high compartment with opaque panels on all sides, lockable with its own independent key. Nothing inside is visible. Display above, concealed storage below, each with its own lock and key. This dual-function design means one cabinet replaces both a display unit and a separate storage piece.
Q: Do the display and storage sections lock independently?
A: Yes. Each section has its own separate key and lock. A shop manager can give display access to sales staff while keeping the storage compartment locked for management only. Two keys supplied for each lock.
Q: How many shelves does the display section have?
A: Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on a continuous rod track. Each shelf slides to any height and locks without tools. Each supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. Remove all three to open the full display column for a tall centrepiece or installation piece that needs the entire interior height.
Q: What does BS 5852:2006 Section 12 mean?
A: The UK fire safety standard for furniture in commercial and public environments. This cabinet is independently tested on the complete assembly. The certificate is downloadable immediately for procurement, facilities and compliance teams. In education, NHS and public sector environments where fire compliance is a purchasing prerequisite, this certification clears the procurement barrier.
Q: Why 800mm instead of 1000mm?
A: The 800mm fits where the 1000mm will not. Retail corners, corridor positions, exhibition bays and smaller shop floors where the wider model consumes too much floor space or dominates the room. The 800mm still carries the same 10-LED count as the 1000mm model, the same fire certification, the same rod track shelf system and the same independent locking on both sections. It is the compact option with no reduction in specification, just a narrower footprint.
Q: Why black instead of silver?
A: The black frame creates high visual contrast between the cabinet structure and the display contents, making items stand forward sharply against a dark ground. Black suits retail environments, hospitality interiors, museums with low-lit galleries and corporate settings where visual impact is the priority. Silver reflects light and recedes in bright interiors.
Q: How do the LED spotlights work?
A: Ten 6400K daylight spotlights are permanently integrated into the frame. Two overhead and eight side-mounted. They illuminate every shelf level without shadow and render true colour with no warm cast. The lighting is fixed and does not need replacement or configuration.
Q: Is the base storage compartment large enough to be useful?
A: Yes. At 800mm wide, 400mm deep and 500mm high, the base has meaningful internal volume. It accommodates larger stock items, equipment, folders and materials that the narrower 400mm and 600mm models cannot fit. It is a practical locked storage unit, not a token shelf.
Q: Does this need to be fixed to a wall?
A: No. At 56kg the cabinet is freestanding and stable in busy commercial environments without anchoring. Position it anywhere on a level floor. Reposition when your layout changes.
Q: Is assembly required?
A: Yes. The cabinet ships flat-packed with all hardware and detailed instructions included. Two people are recommended for handling the glass panels during assembly. An assembly video is available on YouTube to walk you through the process step by step before you start. Allow approximately 60 to 90 minutes for a first-time build. The cabinet assembles without specialist tools.
Q: Is a display-only version available without the storage base?
A: Yes. The DTS800CBK is the same black frame at 800mm with four display shelves and no base storage compartment. Choose the DTK storage model when you need concealed storage below the display. Choose the DTS display-only model when maximum shelf count matters more than hidden storage.
Q: How is this delivered?
A: Free pallet delivery to UK mainland addresses via specialist tail-lift courier. We contact you after dispatch to agree a delivery day. A telephone number is required at checkout for the book-in service.

A: The UK fire safety standard for furniture in commercial and public environments. This cabinet is independently tested on the complete assembly. The certificate is downloadable immediately for procurement, facilities and compliance teams. In education, NHS and public sector environments where fire compliance is a purchasing prerequisite, this certification clears the procurement barrier.
Q: Why 800mm instead of 1000mm?
A: The 800mm fits where the 1000mm will not. Retail corners, corridor positions, exhibition bays and smaller shop floors where the wider model consumes too much floor space or dominates the room. The 800mm still carries the same 10-LED count as the 1000mm model, the same fire certification, the same rod track shelf system and the same independent locking on both sections. It is the compact option with no reduction in specification, just a narrower footprint.
Q: Why black instead of silver?
A: The black frame creates high visual contrast between the cabinet structure and the display contents, making items stand forward sharply against a dark ground. Black suits retail environments, hospitality interiors, museums with low-lit galleries and corporate settings where visual impact is the priority. Silver reflects light and recedes in bright interiors.
Q: How do the LED spotlights work?
A: Ten 6400K daylight spotlights are permanently integrated into the frame. Two overhead and eight side-mounted. They illuminate every shelf level without shadow and render true colour with no warm cast. The lighting is fixed and does not need replacement or configuration.
Q: Is the base storage compartment large enough to be useful?
A: Yes. At 800mm wide, 400mm deep and 500mm high, the base has meaningful internal volume. It accommodates larger stock items, equipment, folders and materials that the narrower 400mm and 600mm models cannot fit. It is a practical locked storage unit, not a token shelf.
Q: Does this need to be fixed to a wall?
A: No. At 56kg the cabinet is freestanding and stable in busy commercial environments without anchoring. Position it anywhere on a level floor. Reposition when your layout changes.
Q: Is assembly required?
A: Yes. The cabinet ships flat-packed with all hardware and detailed instructions included. Two people are recommended for handling the glass panels during assembly. An assembly video is available on YouTube to walk you through the process step by step before you start. Allow approximately 60 to 90 minutes for a first-time build. The cabinet assembles without specialist tools.
Q: Is a display-only version available without the storage base?
A: Yes. The DTS800CBK is the same black frame at 800mm with four display shelves and no base storage compartment. Choose the DTK storage model when you need concealed storage below the display. Choose the DTS display-only model when maximum shelf count matters more than hidden storage.
Q: How is this delivered?
A: Free pallet delivery to UK mainland addresses via specialist tail-lift courier. We contact you after dispatch to agree a delivery day. A telephone number is required at checkout for the book-in service.

800mm Black Glass Storage Display Cabinet with 10 LED Spotlights: Illuminated Display Above, Lockable Storage Below
Most display cabinets do one job. This one does two. The DTK800BK combines a full-height illuminated glass display section with a 500mm lockable base storage compartment in a single black aluminium frame at 1800mm tall and 800mm wide. Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on infinite-position rod track. Ten integrated 6400K daylight LED spotlights. Lockable hinged double doors on the display section. An independently lockable base compartment with its own separate key. Show your best stock above, lock your backup stock below, in one compact footprint. At 800mm the cabinet fits into retail corners, corridor positions and exhibition bays where the wider 1000mm model will not go. Fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12. UK-designed by Displaysense since 1978.
1800mm H x 800mm W x 400mm D. Weight 56kg. Heavy-gauge black aluminium frame. Display section: 4mm toughened glass on sides, rear and doors. Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on continuous rod track, 12kg per shelf. 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side). Lockable hinged double doors with 2 keys. Base storage: 500mm high, opaque, independently lockable. BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified. Freestanding. Self-assembly. Free UK mainland delivery.
Why Display and Storage Belong in One Compact Unit
- 500mm lockable base storage with independent key: The lower compartment is fully enclosed, opaque on all sides and locks independently from the display section above. Backup stock, packaging, accessories or confidential documents stay on hand but completely out of sight. At 800mm wide the base has genuine capacity for larger items that the narrower models cannot accommodate.
- Infinite-position rod track with three display shelves: Three 5mm tempered glass shelves travel a continuous rod track. Slide to any height and lock. No fixed holes. Remove all three for tall items. The black frame at 800mm creates high contrast: every item on the shelves stands forward against a dark ground, lit cleanly by the 10 daylight LEDs.
- 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side): True-colour rendering across the full 800mm interior. Two overhead and eight side-mounted spotlights eliminate shadows at every shelf position. The 6400K daylight temperature renders accurate colour with no warm cast against the black frame.
- BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified: Independently tested on the complete assembly. Certificate downloadable immediately for procurement and compliance teams. The same fire certification as every cabinet in the DTS and DTK ranges.
- 800mm black aluminium frame at 56kg: The compact width fits retail corners, corridor positions and exhibition bays. The black finish creates high contrast. At 56kg the cabinet stands freestanding without wall-fixing. A single person can position it on delivery day.
- UK-designed by Displaysense since 1978: Direct from the supplier. No reseller. The team that supports it knows every detail of the product and the full cabinet range.
Where Display Plus Storage Solves Two Problems at Once
| Retail, Jewellery, Boutique | Product displayed in the illuminated upper section with replenishment stock locked in the base directly below. Staff restock from the same unit. The 800mm width fits into retail corners and between other fixtures without consuming excessive floor space. |
| Salons, Spas, Wellness | Retail products displayed above with treatment accessories, surplus stock or client records secured in the base. The independent locks mean reception staff access the display while the base stays secured for practitioners only. |
| Museums, Galleries, Heritage | Collection display above with handling equipment or conservation materials stored out of sight in the base. The black frame recedes in low-lit gallery environments, placing artefacts in the foreground. Fire certification meets public building requirements. |
| Hospitality, Spirits, Bar Display | Back-bar bottle showcases where black aluminium pairs naturally with warm lighting and dark interiors. The base provides secure storage for bar accessories, glassware or stock directly below the display. |
| Schools, Education, NHS | Trophies and achievements displayed above with management materials locked in the base. BS 5852:2006 fire certification meets institutional procurement requirements. Independent locking suits controlled-access environments. |
| Corporate Reception, Boardrooms | Awards, branded objects and product presentations displayed above with confidential files or equipment stored in the locked base. The black frame suits corporate interiors with dark or high-contrast aesthetic. |
Need Display Only, or a Wider Storage Cabinet?
For display without base storage at 800mm, the DTS800CBK carries four shelves in the same black frame with no base compartment. For more width with storage, the DTK1000BK at 1000mm shares the same specification in a wider footprint.

Displaysense DTK800BK 800mm Black Aluminium Glass Storage Display Cabinet. UK-designed since 1978. 1800mm H x 800mm W x 400mm D. Weight 56kg. Black aluminium frame. Display section: 4mm toughened glass, three 5mm tempered glass shelves on rod track, 12kg per shelf, 10 integrated 6400K daylight LEDs (2 top, 8 side), lockable hinged double doors, 2 keys. Base storage: 500mm high, opaque, independently lockable. BS 5852:2006 Section 12 fire certified. Freestanding. Self-assembly. Suitable for retail, jewellery, salons, museums, galleries, hospitality, schools, NHS, corporate reception and collectors. Also available at 1000mm (DTK1000BK) and as display-only (DTS800CBK). Free UK mainland pallet delivery. Displaysense, UK display cabinet specialist since 1978.
This cabinet does two jobs within one footprint. Above: a full-height illuminated display section with three 5mm tempered glass shelves, 10 integrated 6400K daylight LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Below: a 500mm lockable base storage compartment with opaque panels on all sides, keeping spare stock, accessories or operational materials completely out of sight. The black aluminium frame at 1800mm tall and 800mm wide runs the full height of most commercial interiors, and at 56kg it stands without wall-fixing. Independently fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12. Designed and supplied by Displaysense, the UK's largest display cabinet specialist since 1978.
The black frame at 800mm does something specific. The wider the cabinet, the more the frame finish defines how the display reads from a distance. At 800mm with a black surround, every item on the three glass shelves stands forward against a dark ground, lit cleanly from above and the sides by 10 daylight LEDs. In a retail environment, a museum display, a hospitality venue or a corporate reception where the display needs to do serious visual work, black at this width is the finish that earns its floor space. The 6400K daylight colour temperature renders accurate colour with no warm cast, which matters for jewellery, branded merchandise and any display where the lighting affects the viewer's perception of what is inside the cabinet.
The base storage compartment is 500mm high and fully opaque on all sides. It locks independently from the display section above: separate key, separate access. Spare retail stock sits immediately below the active display, reachable without a back-of-house trip. In a salon the base holds treatment accessories and client records out of sight. In an office it keeps confidential documents or equipment locked away beneath a branded showcase. The 800mm width gives the storage compartment genuine capacity: it is not a token shelf space but a practical locked unit in its own right, wide enough for larger stock items, equipment, folders and boxed merchandise that the narrower 400mm and 600mm base compartments cannot accommodate. The independent locking means different staff can have different levels of access to the same cabinet.
Inside the display section, the three 5mm tempered glass shelves travel a continuous rod track the full interior height. Slide any shelf to the position you need and lock it without tools. Remove all three to open the full column for a tall centrepiece or installation piece. Each shelf supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. The double doors open completely across the 800mm width for unobstructed loading access. One key secures both simultaneously. Two keys supplied. Fire tested to BS 5852:2006 Section 12 across the complete assembled cabinet.

Questions About This 800mm Black Storage Display Cabinet
Q: What is the difference between the display section and the storage section?
A: The upper display section is a fully illuminated glass cabinet with three adjustable tempered glass shelves, 10 LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Everything inside is visible to viewers. The lower storage section is a 500mm high compartment with opaque panels on all sides, lockable with its own independent key. Nothing inside is visible. Display above, concealed storage below, each with its own lock and key. This dual-function design means one cabinet replaces both a display unit and a separate storage piece.
Q: Do the display and storage sections lock independently?
A: Yes. Each section has its own separate key and lock. A shop manager can give display access to sales staff while keeping the storage compartment locked for management only. Two keys supplied for each lock.
Q: How many shelves does the display section have?
A: Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on a continuous rod track. Each shelf slides to any height and locks without tools. Each supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. Remove all three to open the full display column for a tall centrepiece or installation piece that needs the entire interior height.
Q: What does BS 5852:2006 Section 12 mean?
A: The UK fire safety standard for furniture in commercial and public environments. This cabinet is independently tested on the complete assembly. The certificate is downloadable immediately for procurement, facilities and compliance teams. In education, NHS and public sector environments where fire compliance is a purchasing prerequisite, this certification clears the procurement barrier.
Q: Why 800mm instead of 1000mm?
A: The 800mm fits where the 1000mm will not. Retail corners, corridor positions, exhibition bays and smaller shop floors where the wider model consumes too much floor space or dominates the room. The 800mm still carries the same 10-LED count as the 1000mm model, the same fire certification, the same rod track shelf system and the same independent locking on both sections. It is the compact option with no reduction in specification, just a narrower footprint.
Q: Why black instead of silver?
A: The black frame creates high visual contrast between the cabinet structure and the display contents, making items stand forward sharply against a dark ground. Black suits retail environments, hospitality interiors, museums with low-lit galleries and corporate settings where visual impact is the priority. Silver reflects light and recedes in bright interiors.
Q: How do the LED spotlights work?
A: Ten 6400K daylight spotlights are permanently integrated into the frame. Two overhead and eight side-mounted. They illuminate every shelf level without shadow and render true colour with no warm cast. The lighting is fixed and does not need replacement or configuration.
Q: Is the base storage compartment large enough to be useful?
A: Yes. At 800mm wide, 400mm deep and 500mm high, the base has meaningful internal volume. It accommodates larger stock items, equipment, folders and materials that the narrower 400mm and 600mm models cannot fit. It is a practical locked storage unit, not a token shelf.
Q: Does this need to be fixed to a wall?
A: No. At 56kg the cabinet is freestanding and stable in busy commercial environments without anchoring. Position it anywhere on a level floor. Reposition when your layout changes.
Q: Is assembly required?
A: Yes. The cabinet ships flat-packed with all hardware and detailed instructions included. Two people are recommended for handling the glass panels during assembly. An assembly video is available on YouTube to walk you through the process step by step before you start. Allow approximately 60 to 90 minutes for a first-time build. The cabinet assembles without specialist tools.
Q: Is a display-only version available without the storage base?
A: Yes. The DTS800CBK is the same black frame at 800mm with four display shelves and no base storage compartment. Choose the DTK storage model when you need concealed storage below the display. Choose the DTS display-only model when maximum shelf count matters more than hidden storage.
Q: How is this delivered?
A: Free pallet delivery to UK mainland addresses via specialist tail-lift courier. We contact you after dispatch to agree a delivery day. A telephone number is required at checkout for the book-in service.

Description
This cabinet does two jobs within one footprint. Above: a full-height illuminated display section with three 5mm tempered glass shelves, 10 integrated 6400K daylight LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Below: a 500mm lockable base storage compartment with opaque panels on all sides, keeping spare stock, accessories or operational materials completely out of sight. The black aluminium frame at 1800mm tall and 800mm wide runs the full height of most commercial interiors, and at 56kg it stands without wall-fixing.

FAQs
Questions About This 800mm Black Storage Display Cabinet
Q: What is the difference between the display section and the storage section?
A: The upper display section is a fully illuminated glass cabinet with three adjustable tempered glass shelves, 10 LED spotlights and lockable double doors. Everything inside is visible to viewers. The lower storage section is a 500mm high compartment with opaque panels on all sides, lockable with its own independent key. Nothing inside is visible. Display above, concealed storage below, each with its own lock and key. This dual-function design means one cabinet replaces both a display unit and a separate storage piece.
Q: Do the display and storage sections lock independently?
A: Yes. Each section has its own separate key and lock. A shop manager can give display access to sales staff while keeping the storage compartment locked for management only. Two keys supplied for each lock.
Q: How many shelves does the display section have?
A: Three 5mm tempered glass shelves on a continuous rod track. Each shelf slides to any height and locks without tools. Each supports up to 12kg evenly distributed. Remove all three to open the full display column for a tall centrepiece or installation piece that needs the entire interior height.
Q: What does BS 5852:2006 Section 12 mean?
A: The UK fire safety standard for furniture in commercial and public environments. This cabinet is independently tested on the complete assembly. The certificate is downloadable immediately for procurement, facilities and compliance teams. In education, NHS and public sector environments where fire compliance is a purchasing prerequisite, this certification clears the procurement barrier.
Q: Why 800mm instead of 1000mm?
A: The 800mm fits where the 1000mm will not. Retail corners, corridor positions, exhibition bays and smaller shop floors where the wider model consumes too much floor space or dominates the room. The 800mm still carries the same 10-LED count as the 1000mm model, the same fire certification, the same rod track shelf system and the same independent locking on both sections. It is the compact option with no reduction in specification, just a narrower footprint.
Q: Why black instead of silver?
A: The black frame creates high visual contrast between the cabinet structure and the display contents, making items stand forward sharply against a dark ground. Black suits retail environments, hospitality interiors, museums with low-lit galleries and corporate settings where visual impact is the priority. Silver reflects light and recedes in bright interiors.
Q: How do the LED spotlights work?
A: Ten 6400K daylight spotlights are permanently integrated into the frame. Two overhead and eight side-mounted. They illuminate every shelf level without shadow and render true colour with no warm cast. The lighting is fixed and does not need replacement or configuration.
Q: Is the base storage compartment large enough to be useful?
A: Yes. At 800mm wide, 400mm deep and 500mm high, the base has meaningful internal volume. It accommodates larger stock items, equipment, folders and materials that the narrower 400mm and 600mm models cannot fit. It is a practical locked storage unit, not a token shelf.
Q: Does this need to be fixed to a wall?
A: No. At 56kg the cabinet is freestanding and stable in busy commercial environments without anchoring. Position it anywhere on a level floor. Reposition when your layout changes.
Q: Is assembly required?
A: Yes. The cabinet ships flat-packed with all hardware and detailed instructions included. Two people are recommended for handling the glass panels during assembly. An assembly video is available on YouTube to walk you through the process step by step before you start. Allow approximately 60 to 90 minutes for a first-time build. The cabinet assembles without specialist tools.
Q: Is a display-only version available without the storage base?
A: Yes. The DTS800CBK is the same black frame at 800mm with four display shelves and no base storage compartment. Choose the DTK storage model when you need concealed storage below the display. Choose the DTS display-only model when maximum shelf count matters more than hidden storage.
Q: How is this delivered?
A: Free pallet delivery to UK mainland addresses via specialist tail-lift courier. We contact you after dispatch to agree a delivery day. A telephone number is required at checkout for the book-in service.
