First Aid Cabinets

Need help? Need help? What are the benefits of buying a first aid cabinet? Secure First Aid Cabinets. High Quality - Fast Delivery

Having equipment in a first aid supply cabinet where it is safe, visible and easily accessible can save time in an emergency and help first aiders and authorised personnel quickly find the equipment they need. Keeping first aid cabinet supplies locked away can help deter misappropriation of equipment and also ensure the items are organised for easier stock rotation and reordering. Locating a cabinet in your workplace can also protect the first aid inventory from moisture, dust and other environmental hazards.

First Aid Wall Cabinet Buying Guide


What do I Need in a First Aid Kit?

Seton offers a range of first aid storage cabinets which are available stocked with first aid equipment for instant British Standard compliance, or empty and ready to be filled with the supplies you need for your workplace. Some of the cabinets in our range are specifically for safe storage of defibrillators while the majority have been designed for storing general first aid supplies or use as a first aid kit cabinet. Our Metal Cabinets are a popular choice as they are particularly robust.

Your first aid cabinets should be customised to the needs of your work environment. You can determine your first aid storage box requirements by assessing the risks in and around your workplace.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) confirmed that each work environment is unique and that employers are in the best position to understand and assess first aid needs. The HSE however, does provide first aid risk assessment guidelines, and advises that employers consider:

  • The nature of the work conducted

  • Hazards and risks specific to certain work activities, which would require special arrangements such as exposure to possible chemical or electrical injuries

  • The composition of a workforce. This includes the number of employees, their job dispersal, and the environments in which they work

  • First aid training and designated first aiders in the company. Here, employers should consider holidays and absenteeism to ensure that there are always first aiders available during working hours and shifts

  • The company’s history of accident trends

  • The first aid needs of travelling, remote or lone workers

  • Distances from emergency medical centres such as hospitals

Once you have conducted these assessments, you can make an informed decision about:

  • The equipment you need to stock in your first aid cupboard

  • How many hardy metal first aid boxes you’ll need on your premises

  • What first aid storage arrangements are needed. For example, you may need to consider a space-saving wall-mounted first aid cabinet for small office areas

  • The need for a fully stocked medical cupboard with emergency equipment such as defibrillators

  • The need for a lockable first aid cabinet to safeguard expensive first aid equipment

Seton’s pre-stocked first aid storage solutions allow you to acquire either basic or specialised chemical kits. You can use these as a basis and supplement them as needed. The HSE advises that the following items be included as the bare minimum in any first aid kit:

  • A leaflet describing general first aid. The HSE issued such a guide called ‘Basic advice on first aid at work’

  • Individually wrapped and sterile plasters in different sizes

  • Individually wrapped and triangular bandages

  • Safety pins

  • Wound dressings, also individually wrapped and sterile. You should stock an assortment of medium and large-sized dressings

  • Disposable and sterile gloves

Our comprehensive selection of stocked and unstocked first aid cabinets include:

  • Heated outdoor AED (automated external defibrillator) storage cabinet. This unit is specifically designed for AEDs and is thermostatically controlled to ensure that your defibrillator is stored at the correct temperature. It has a digital display that indicates the internal temperature of the cabinet with LED (light-emitting diode) illumination to aid users when it is dark

  • A Industrial Quicksafe Wall Box. This is a first aid wall cabinet that allows for easy access to specialised first aid equipment. It is pre-stocked with the necessities to treat burns, bleeding and eye injuries. The door is treated against dust and other contaminants to maintain the hygiene standards of the contents

  • Medical Cupboard with an epoxy powder-coated paint finish, making it robust to withstand harsh ambient conditions. This freestanding unit comes with a key cam lock, two keys and an identification label

You can find larger freestanding first aid cupboards in our range. Designed to store a larger volume of first aid equipment, these units are available with see through panels so that essential first aid is easily visible. They are ideal when you need to store a large volume of first aid items and can accommodate bulkier items such as blankets or multiple first aid kits. Most come with adjustable shelves so you can can change the configuration to arrange your items accordingly. Another advantage is that the free standing cabinets do not need to be wall mounted so can be placed wherever there is space to accommodate them.

If space is at a premium then Medical Cube Lockers could be the ideal solution for you. These units are available in three different sizes and are ideal to slot into any space available such as under desks or shelves. A versatile option, they are stackable and can also be wall mounted, providing lockable first aid storage with a removable key.

Most of the first aid cabinets in our range come with multiple shelves or compartments making it simple to organise the different items such as Plasters and Bandages. Many of the cabinets and wall boxes have transparent doors or covers and this makes it easier to see what's missing and reorder when necessary.

If you need a cabinet already fully stocked with first aid products there are various solutions which can take away the hassle of buying storage and equipment separately. Bear in mind though that filling up an empty first aid cabinet should be based on your workplace requirements and the result of a risk assessment of first aid needs. For the catering and food industry a cabinet is available stocked with blue bandages and plasters and burn relief equipment. Alternatively our standard stocked cabinet is for more general use, comes with the equivalent of a British Standard first aid kit, is lockable and displays the universal first aid symbol. We also offer cabinets with eye wash supplies which have been designed for chemical or industrial environments. For more options to treat eye wash injuries in the workplace you might want to take a look at our Emergency Showers and Eye Wash category.

If you need to store expensive defibrillator equipment there are products available which can provide secure housing and options that are water resistant. There is even the option of having a cabinet that is alarmed to alert the surrounding area of access.
