How to choose an Alea Storage Cabinet
Start by deciding what the cabinet needs to store and where it will sit. Consider who will use it, whether it will be placed in a private office or a shared area, and how often people need to access its contents. These practical questions help you focus on the model details that matter rather than treating the three listings as interchangeable.
Compare the three model descriptions
- PLA572CB: The listing describes a melamine storage cabinet with an RFID badge lock and Safari front finish.
- PLA573CB: This model is described with a melamine front, RFID badge subtype and Safari front finish.
- PLA575CB: The listing describes a melamine storage cabinet with an RFID badge design, cylinder lock and Safari front finish.
Use these descriptions as a starting point, then check each product listing for the exact lock configuration. The family data identifies a cylinder lock, but the supplied descriptions do not explain how every lock detail works across the models. Confirm the arrangement that suits your intended users before specifying cabinets for a team.
Check fit, finish and intended use
Measure the available floor space and consider how the cabinet will sit alongside desks, storage or circulation routes. Confirm the precise height, width and depth on the individual model page; the collection-level dimensions do not provide a reliable, model-by-model specification. Also check how the front finish looks with the surrounding furniture. Safari is named in the model descriptions, while the broader color information should not be taken as confirmation that every color applies to every cabinet.
Think about the contents as well as the room. The supplied information states that these cabinets do not have hanging folder frames, so if hanging-file storage is essential, verify whether another storage solution is more suitable. No acoustic feature is specified for this family, so choose it based on its documented storage and finish details rather than assuming sound-control performance.
What to confirm before ordering
Before choosing a model, review its current product information for dimensions, front material, finish and lock details. If you are planning a group of cabinets, check that the selected models suit the same layout and that their documented finishes work together. For shared spaces, make sure the access arrangement aligns with how your organization intends to manage use.

Frequently asked questions about Alea Storage Cabinet
What distinguishes the three Alea Storage Cabinet models?
Their descriptions distinguish the melamine cabinet or front details and the RFID badge lock wording. PLA575CB also names a cylinder lock. Check each listing for the exact configuration.
Do all models have an RFID badge lock?
All three model descriptions refer to an RFID badge, but the wording differs. Confirm the lock arrangement on the individual model listing rather than assuming the details are identical.
What front finish is listed for this family?
Safari is named as the front finish in the supplied descriptions. Check the specific model page to confirm the finish for the cabinet you select.
How can I tell whether a cabinet will fit my space?
Measure your available area, then verify the exact height, width and depth on the individual product listing. The collection-level dimensions are not a clear model-by-model specification.
Are these cabinets suitable for hanging files?
The collection information states that there are no hanging folder frames. If hanging-file storage is required, confirm whether another solution better meets that need.
