Description
Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet with Doors
The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet with Doors is a robust, modular medical storage cabinet designed for the organised storage and management of medicines, pharmacy supplies and healthcare consumables in hospitals and professional clinical environments. Developed to support the movement and management of medicines between hospital pharmacies and clinical departments, the Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet provides a practical, adaptable storage solution for healthcare facilities requiring secure, well-organised and accessible medication storage.
Featuring a durable epoxy-treated steel construction, lockable doors and compatibility with the 600 x 400 mm modular storage system, the cabinet can be configured to accommodate a wide variety of pharmacy drawers, storage bins, medication dispensers and other accessories. Its flexible internal layout allows healthcare professionals to create a storage arrangement suited to their department's requirements, helping improve organisation and accessibility while making effective use of available space.
The cabinet is available in three widths – 735 mm, 1200 mm and 1420 mm – with a common depth of 660 mm and height of 2000 mm.
With a choice of key-operated or code-operated locking and multiple internal configuration options, the Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet with Doors is suitable for hospital pharmacies, medication storage rooms, treatment departments and other healthcare settings where organised storage is essential.
Designed for Hospital Pharmacy and Medication Storage
Effective medication management requires suitable storage facilities that allow healthcare professionals to organise supplies, maintain clear identification and access the items they need. The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet is designed to support these requirements through a modular internal storage system.
It can be used to organise suitable items such as:
-
Packaged medicines and pharmaceutical supplies
-
Medication dispensing equipment
-
Pharmacy drawers and containers
-
Pill dispensers
-
Medical consumables
-
Treatment room supplies
-
Departmental healthcare stock
-
Compatible modular storage accessories
The cabinet's internal configuration can be adapted to the type and quantity of items being stored. This flexibility makes it particularly useful where medication storage requirements vary between departments.
Modular 600 x 400 mm Storage Compatibility
One of the main advantages of the Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet is its compatibility with the 600 x 400 mm modular storage format. This system is used across a range of Praticima medical trolleys and cabinets. The pharmacy cabinet can accommodate compatible drawers, bins and pill dispensers used within the same modular storage system. This helps healthcare facilities create a more consistent approach to storage across pharmacy and clinical environments. Potential benefits include easier organisation, greater flexibility when reconfiguring storage and improved compatibility between selected fixed and mobile storage equipment.
The 600 x 400 mm measurement refers to the compatible storage module format, not the cabinet's external dimensions.
Flexible Internal Storage Configurations
The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet can be configured with internal compartments to suit different storage requirements. Depending on the cabinet size and selected layout, the interior can be arranged using full-width storage or dedicated 600 x 400 mm columns. The manufacturer also offers configurations with two or three internal compartments, extending through all or part of the cabinet height. This allows customers to combine different storage solutions within one cabinet.
For example, a configuration may include:
-
Modular drawers for organised medication storage
-
Open storage bins for frequently accessed supplies
-
Shelving for larger packaged items
-
Pill dispensers for medication management
-
Additional compartments for specialist pharmacy accessories
The exact layout should be selected according to the intended use, available space and departmental storage requirements.
Durable Epoxy-Treated Steel Construction
The cabinet features a robust steel body designed for regular use in professional healthcare environments. The manufacturer specifies a 1.0 mm steel body, treated with an epoxy anti-corrosion finish. This construction provides a durable housing for the cabinet's modular storage components. The epoxy-treated finish also supports routine cleaning and maintenance when used with suitable products and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Strong Steel Doors
The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet incorporates robust steel doors designed for frequent use. The manufacturer specifies 1.2 mm steel door construction. The doors can be configured with compatible storage accessories, allowing the internal storage capacity to be adapted to different requirements. This can be particularly useful where frequently accessed items need to be organised within the cabinet.
Wide 180° Door Opening
The cabinet doors open through approximately 180 degrees, providing convenient access to the internal storage compartments. This wide opening can help staff access drawers, bins and medication supplies without the doors unnecessarily obstructing the cabinet interior.
Key Lock or Code Lock Options
The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet is available with different locking arrangements. The standard range includes key-operated locking, while code-operated locking is also available. This allows healthcare facilities to select an appropriate access arrangement for their medication storage procedures. A code lock may be particularly useful in departments where authorised staff require regular access without relying on a physical key.
Supporting Pharmacy-to-Ward Medication Logistics
The Praticima Pharmacy Cabinet is designed to complement compatible 600 x 400 mm mobile trolleys and storage equipment.
Using the same modular storage format across fixed and mobile equipment can help facilities organise the movement of medicines and supplies between pharmacy departments and care areas.
This can be particularly valuable where hospitals use a coordinated medication distribution system.
The ability to select compatible drawers and containers across equipment types supports a more consistent approach to pharmacy storage and clinical supply management.
