Storage Lockers vs Office Cabinets: Size, Price, and Usage Guide for Dubai Offices

Staying organized is key to productivity in any office. Knowing where to store documents, equipment, and personal items reduces clutter and keeps workspaces efficient. But when it comes to office storage, businesses often debate: storage lockers or office cabinets? Each serves a distinct purpose, and understanding the differences in size, design, pricing, and usage will help you choose the right solution for your workspace.

Size Differences

Storage Lockers

• Design & Dimensions: Lockers are tall, narrow, and modular, typically made of steel for secure storage. Standard color options include white or gray, though custom finishes can match your brand identity.

• Typical Uses: Personal belongings, gym bags, electronics, confidential files, safety gear, and small office accessories.

• Example Dimensions (Dubai):

  • 1-Door Locker: 38L × 45D × 180H cm

  • 2-Door Locker: 38L × 45D × 180H cm

  • 3-Door Locker: 38L × 45D × 180H cm

  • 4-Door Locker: 38L × 45D × 180H cm

Lockers are perfect for high-traffic areas, shared spaces, and offices that prioritize secure, compact, vertical storage.

Office Cabinets

• Design & Dimensions: Cabinets are available in low, mid, and full-height options, with sliding or swing doors, glass panels, or open shelves. Materials include premium MDF wood boards, glass, and steel, often in modern finishes like white, walnut, or oak.

• Typical Uses: Office stationery, books, archived documents, tools, cleaning items, and general office supplies.

• Example Dimensions:

  • Low-Height Cabinet: 80–100L × 40D × 85H cm

  • Mid-Height Cabinet: 80–100L × 40D × 120H cm

  • Full-Height Cabinet: 80–100L × 40D × 210H cm

  • Lateral Filing Cabinet (K-D Structure): 92L × 47D × 132H cm

Cabinets provide broader, accessible storage and are ideal when aesthetics and functionality are equally important.

Price Differences

Storage Lockers

• 1-Door Locker: AED 415 incl. tax

• 2-Door Locker: AED 467 incl. tax

• 3-Door Locker: AED 520 incl. tax

• 4-Door Locker: AED 572 incl. tax

Lockers are generally more cost-effective for basic personal storage. Custom finishes or electronic locks increase the price.

Office Cabinets

• Low-Height Cabinet: AED 788–819 incl. tax

• Mid-Height Cabinet: AED 977–1,082 incl. tax

• Full-Height Cabinet: AED 992–2,363 incl. tax

• Premium Series (e.g., Bordo Edge): Low-Height AED 1,798 | Mid-Height AED 1,881 | Full-Height AED 1,439

Cabinets are more expensive due to larger dimensions, materials, and additional features such as soft-close hinges, pull-out shelves, and integrated lighting.

Material & Aesthetic Considerations

• Lockers: Primarily steel with electrostatic powder coating; optional laminated wood or plastic for customized aesthetics.

• Cabinets: Modern MDF boards, glass panels, or steel. Finishes include white, walnut, Cognac Kendal Oak, or custom textures for executive spaces.

Choosing the Right Storage Solution

• Opt for Lockers if you need secure, modular, personal storage in shared or high-traffic areas.

• Choose Cabinets if you want versatile, accessible storage with larger capacity and an emphasis on aesthetics for professional office environments.

For collaborative workspaces, consider side workstation cabinets with planter boxes to blend storage with biophilic design, improving both function and employee well-being.
