How to choose an Alea cabinet
Start with the job the cabinet needs to do. For lower storage, compare the 80 cm-wide, 72.2 cm-high model with the available space beneath counters or along a wall. For a taller storage format, consider the cabinet measuring 1502 × 434 × 1654 mm. These measurements are listed in different formats, so convert them to the same units before comparing with a floor plan or measuring your room.
Check placement and access
Allow for the cabinet’s full width, depth, and height in its intended position. The taller model has a listed depth of 434 mm; the compact model’s depth is not stated in the details provided here, so confirm it on the product listing before planning placement. Also consider how doors will open in relation to desks, walkways, and nearby furniture.
If the cabinet will be used by several people, the taller model’s cylinder lock may be a useful distinction to consider. The lock is listed for that model; do not assume it is included with the compact cabinet. Check the chosen item’s details to confirm which features apply.
Materials, colors, and storage expectations
Melamine doors are specified for both models. The taller cabinet is additionally listed with a melamine body and plastic feet. These are the material and construction details available for comparison; consult the individual listing for any further information relevant to your project.
Colors listed across the family include beige, black, green, grey, blue, brown, orange, silver, white, yellow, gold, and red. Not every color is necessarily available for each model, so verify the options for the specific cabinet you select.
The collection attributes indicate no hanging file frames and no shelves. If your team needs internal shelving or filing-frame storage, check the product specifications rather than assuming those components are included. Matching the cabinet to the items you plan to store helps avoid choosing based on appearance or overall size alone.
What to check before selecting
- Measure the location: compare the model’s stated dimensions with the space, access route, and door-opening area.
- Confirm the intended use: consider whether a low or taller cabinet is the more practical format for your team.
- Verify details: check the selected model’s listing for its depth, color availability, lock, and included storage components.
