Pharmacy Medical HECDC106 Controlled Drugs Cabinet - 860mm H x 440mm W x 500mm D - 6 Drawers

The Pharmacy Medical HECDC106 Controlled Drugs Cabinet offers a secure, drawer-based solution for storing and organising controlled medication. Unlike conventional shelving cabinets, its six pull-out drawers provide individual storage compartments, making it easier for healthcare professionals to separate medicines and access stock efficiently.

Measuring 860mm high, 440mm wide and 500mm deep, this floor-fixed controlled drugs cabinet is suitable for hospitals, pharmacies, GP surgeries and care homes requiring secure medication storage with a practical drawer arrangement.

Six pull-out drawers for organised medication storage

The HECDC106 features six pull-out drawers, providing a practical alternative to conventional fixed or adjustable shelving.

Each drawer measures 290mm wide, 400mm deep and 75mm high, offering dedicated storage space for medication packs, smaller containers and other appropriately sized controlled drug stock.

The drawer arrangement allows healthcare professionals to organise medicines into separate compartments, helping reduce clutter and making individual items easier to locate.

With all six drawers housed behind a single lockable cabinet door, the HECDC106 combines convenient internal organisation with controlled access to medication.

Floor-fixed design for secure installation

Designed for floor fixing, the HECDC106 provides a stable storage solution for dedicated medication rooms and secure clinical storage areas.

Four 10mm x 75mm sleeve anchors are supplied for installation into a suitable floor.

The cabinet also incorporates 3mm thick anchor plates at its fixing points, strengthening the connection between the cabinet and its mounting surface.

This arrangement is particularly suitable for healthcare facilities requiring a secure, freestanding-style cabinet installation rather than a conventional wall-mounted model.

Secure single-point locking system

The HECDC106 incorporates a BS3621 single-point locking system with a six-pin Euro-profile cylinder.

The lock includes anti-pick, anti-drill and anti-bump protection to help prevent unauthorised access to stored controlled medication.

A key-retaining mechanism prevents the key from being removed while the cabinet door is open, supporting secure medication handling procedures.

Three keys are supplied as standard.

The cylinder is independently tested to BS EN1303:2005 and holds Kitemark KM532920 and TS007 1 Star certification.

Additional security is provided by a hardened steel mortise deadbolt with anti-saw protection and a 14mm bolt throw.

Strong steel construction with reinforced door security

Manufactured in Britain, the HECDC106 is constructed from 1.5mm thick cold-reduced mild steel with fully welded joints.

An anti-jemmy folded return runs along the hinge side of the door, providing additional resistance against forced entry.

The cabinet features a continuous 2mm thick steel piano hinge with 25mm joints and a 4.5mm diameter hinge pin.

The hinge pin is welded to prevent removal, while the continuous hinge design helps maximise the door opening for easier access to the six internal drawers.

Manufactured for controlled drug storage requirements

The HECDC106 controlled drugs cabinet conforms to BS2881:1989 Security Level One, the British Standard for cupboards used to store medicines in healthcare premises.

The manufacturer also states that the cabinet meets the requirements of the Misuse of Drugs (Safe Custody) Regulations 1973.

Combined with its BS3621 locking system and robust steel construction, these specifications make the cabinet suitable for professional healthcare facilities responsible for securely storing controlled medication.

Correct installation, key management and appropriate medicines management procedures remain essential to maintaining compliant storage arrangements.

Practical finish and hinge options

The HECDC106 is finished in RAL 9003 White Gloss polyester powder coating, providing a durable exterior suitable for routine cleaning in healthcare environments.

Its six-drawer layout is particularly useful where medicines need to be organised into separate storage compartments while remaining within one secure cabinet.

The model is listed with a choice of right-hand or left-hand door hinge, allowing the cabinet to be configured according to the available space and access requirements.

Please Note

The HECDC106 is supplied with six pull-out drawers rather than adjustable internal shelves. Please check the individual drawer dimensions to ensure they are suitable for your medication storage requirements.
