Laboratory Base Cabinets
Teclab’s Laboratory(Wetlab) style cabinets are 22" deep. When installed under a standard 30" countertop, there is ample room for plumbing and other utilities behind the cabinets. The drawer fronts and door faces of the laboratory cabinets are designed with an inset (recessed) profile, sitting flush within the cabinet frame. This construction helps shield the cabinet contents from accidental spills by reducing direct exposure at the edges and limiting the pathways for liquids to enter. Each drawer is equipped with its own lock, installed separately to provide secure, compartment-by-compartment storage. The locks can be keyed individually, allowing each drawer to operate with a different key for controlled access, improved organization, and enhanced security where multiple users or varying storage requirements are involved.
Technical Base Cabinets
Teclab’s Technical(TWS) style cabinets are 28" deep. The extra depth allows for massive amounts of storage and increased stability in free-standing installations. TWS Cabinets are frequently chosen as the foundation for building a workbench because they are sturdy, modular, and designed to support heavy daily use. When configured as a workbench base, they provide organized storage beneath the work surface while keeping tools and parts easily accessible. For security and convenience, these cabinets commonly use an internal lock-bar mechanism. In this setup, a lock cylinder (operated by a key) engages a metal bar inside the cabinet. When the lock is turned, the bar moves into position to block the drawer latches, preventing any drawer from being opened. Unlocking retracts the bar and releases all drawer latches at once, so a single lock and key can secure—or open—every drawer simultaneously without needing individual drawer locks.
