Workshop drawers: the features you didn't know it should have
Workshop drawers are only useful if top quality. Cheap drawers, made with poorly resistant materials and limited capacity, in fact, are not only inconvenient to use during daily work, but they often break, have drawers that slide defectively, compartments that break and, instead of helping you to speed up daily work, slow it down, making you lose time and money. Thus, here is what should not be missing in functional workshop drawers in your workshop.
1- They must be able to support weight
Respectful workshop drawers should have heavy-duty drawers that resist deformations when heavy objects are stored. Often, in fact, the materials and tools you use daily are not lightweight. Thus, top quality workshop drawers must be able to support heavier weights. Each DEA drawer can support up to 30 kg without any effort and without deformations.
2- They should be painted with epoxy powder paint
Since they come into contact with ferrous or corrosive materials, workshop drawers should be painted with epoxy powder paint that improves paint adherence as well as the durability and resistance of the entire frame against corrosion. Compared to those painted with liquid paint, in fact, workshop drawers painted with epoxy powder are more resistant and last longer.
3- They should allow cables to pass through the shoulders
Workshop drawers are often located in key locations, near machinery and tools that are continuously picked up and put down. Quality workshop drawers should thus have perforated shoulders to allows cables to pass through, thus optimising space and preventing wire raceways from hindering operators.
4- It should have easy and quick guides
The last feature workshop drawers should have is drawer opening/closing agility and speed, both at first use and when the drawers start to age.
This is why DEA drawers are all equipped with DEAmotion technology that provides excellent performance in terms of drawer agility and, thanks to their soft closure, speeds up user productivity, optimising work time and best exploiting your investment.
