4ft metal cupboard for secure and compact event storage
Organisation and security are vital behind the scenes at any professional live event — and our 4ft metal cupboard is the perfect solution when you need reliable, counter-height storage that won’t dominate your workspace. Whether you’re managing a production office at a major sporting event, coordinating artist logistics at a large music festival, or equipping a broadcast cabin with admin essentials, this lockable cupboard offers a clean, secure, and compact way to manage your storage needs.
Standing at counter height, this metal cupboard is ideal for use in modular site cabins, media centres, press rooms, technical zones, and other back-of-house locations where space is limited, but function is essential. It can be used on its own or placed alongside desks, printers, or other office equipment to create a logical and efficient working environment.
The sturdy, steel construction ensures it’s ready for the rigours of temporary event infrastructure, and its lockable design provides peace of mind when storing valuable, sensitive, or operationally critical items.
Practical design for real-world event settings
Part of our robust and versatile furniture hire range, the 4ft metal cupboard features two hinged doors that open wide for easy access, and a single internal shelf that divides the interior space into two usable levels. Whether you’re storing technical equipment, accreditation passes, charging devices, radios, or consumables, this cupboard keeps everything protected and accessible.
Its lockable doors are secured with a unique key, helping you control access and ensure that contents are only available to authorised personnel. In busy multi-team environments — such as shared production zones or rotating staff areas — having secure storage like this is a major advantage.
Its counter-height design means the top surface can also be used as a working area or for additional equipment placement. Many clients use it as a print station, laptop docking area, or document handling zone. The flat top can even double as a secondary shelf or temporary storage surface during peak hours, making it a multifunctional asset in tight backstage environments.
4ft metal cupboard hire for live event convenience
Choosing 4ft metal cupboard hire is a flexible and cost-effective way to ensure your event operations stay organised without the hassle of purchasing, transporting, or storing your own equipment. This compact model is especially useful when a full-height unit isn’t required or when working within confined spaces like temporary control cabins, wardrobe rooms, or crew rest zones.
It’s frequently deployed at festival artist management offices, sports event hospitality areas, and media coordination hubs, where the need for efficient, secure, and space-conscious storage is critical. Available in quantity, these cupboards are often used in tandem with larger 6ft metal cupboards, desks, filing cabinets, or shelving units to create fully functional backstage environments.
The unit is lightweight enough for repositioning during your event build or breakdown but solid enough to offer dependable protection and functionality throughout the duration of your schedule.
Secure storage, simplified
Whether you’re storing AV equipment, operational documents, branded merchandise, or team supplies, the 4ft metal cupboard provides a smart and straightforward storage solution. Its discreet footprint, neutral design, and practical features make it an ideal fit for everything from press accreditation areas to backstage dressing rooms.
For added flexibility, the cupboard is available in multiple colour finishes and can be easily integrated into your broader infrastructure. If your storage requirements expand, pairing this with the larger 6ft model gives you a cohesive solution across different departments or zones.
