For a lot of people who own and operate an office space, storage is a big issue. There just never seems to be enough room to store all of the items that need to be kept. A great way to increase the storage space in your office is to have some office cabinets installed. You can start by meeting up with a general contractor to discuss where you want your cabinets located, what you want them to look like, how long it will take to have them installed, etc. One important topic that you will discuss during this time is what additions you would like to add to your office cabinets. There are so many awesome additions that can improve the overall functionality of your office cabinets, so it is definitely worth looking into them. This article will discuss 3 additional features that you should consider adding to your office cabinets. 

Lock System  

If you have some cabinets that contain files that need to be kept secure, it is important that they are protected within the cabinet. This is made possible by adding some type of lock system to your cabinet. The great thing about adding this kind of system is that you can customize it to your specific needs. For example, you can use a traditional lock and key system on the cabinets, or you could go with a number code or finger print system. It will just depend on what level of security you feel is necessary for your office cabinets, and how much you want to pay to have the system installed. 

In-Cabinet Lighting 

Another awesome feature to add to your office cabinets is in-cabinet lighting. By adding lighting to the interior of your cabinets, you greatly increase your visibility, This can allow you to more quickly put things in the cabinet and/or get them out because you can immediately see where they need to go. This will allow you to get back to your other tasks that much faster, thus increasing productivity for you and all of other employees who are performing similar tasks. The in-cabinet lighting can be placed at the top of each shelf, which is optimal for vision and is in a location where it won't be in the way. 

Pull Out Shelves

If you are shorter, or if you have deep cabinets,  then you may want to consider having some of your cabinets pull out. This allows you to more easily get to the back of your cabinets to get the items that you need there. it also makes it so that you can successfully use all of the space that your cabinets provide for you.
