Sliding Glass Museum Display Case with Secure Sliding Access

How this case is put together

Sliding Glass Museum Display Case with Secure Sliding Access is a museum developed for museums, galleries and exhibition designers. Cultural display is a conservation brief as much as a visual one. Cases in this range are detailed around access control, glazing build-up and lighting heat, with provision for environmental control where the exhibit requires it.

The outline is set by the store plan and is positioned to suit the floor layout with joinery detailed to read as one piece. Frame, panels and glazing are detailed together, so the case arrives as one coordinated unit rather than a cabinet with glass added afterwards.

Layout and configuration

The internal layout is built around how the merchandise is handled: what stays on open display, what sits behind glass, and what needs to be within reach of staff without leaving the counter.

• Locking access is specified at the door and drawer line, with keying and access levels agreed at approval.
• Sliding glass runs on a tracked base, so the opening does not need clear aisle space in front of the case.

Dimensions and fit

No stock size is quoted for Sliding Glass Museum Display Case with Secure Sliding Access. The case is dimensioned from your plan, the merchandise it holds and the clearance needed to open doors and drawers.

We return a drawing set with the width, depth, height, plinth, shelf pitch and glazing build-up marked. Production starts only after that drawing is signed off.

• Overall width, depth and height fixed on the approved drawing
• Shelf pitch and deck depth set to the merchandise
• Plinth height and aisle clearance checked against the floor plan
• Glazing thickness and door line confirmed on the drawing

Materials, glazing and light

The frame is specified in matte black steel, powder-coated steel or lacquered MDF, with conservation-grade board with sealed joints for the body. Glazing is laminated low-iron or anti-reflective glass, and lighting is low-heat LED with fibre-optic options for sensitive objects. Samples of frame and panel finishes are approved before the batch is released.

• Frame: matte black steel, powder-coated steel or lacquered MDF

Security, storage and service access

Storage is handled with sealed base with silica trays and sensor mounting. Cable routes, drivers and access panels are planned so maintenance does not require dismantling the display.

• Concealed cable route from the base to each shelf position
• Removable panels for driver and hinge service
