Fire Cupboards and Flame Retardant Cupboards

A fireproof cabinet (such as SecurePlus or Leeco models) is tested to withstand sustained exposure to high temperatures for a certified duration — typically 30 to 120 minutes — while maintaining safe internal temperatures for paper or electronic media. A flame retardant cupboard (such as the Tijori range) is constructed from materials that resist ignition and slow fire spread, providing meaningful protection in a fire event but without the same level of prolonged certified fire resistance. For offices storing critical documents or compliance records, a certified fireproof cabinet is the stronger choice; flame retardant cupboards are well suited for general secure storage where full fire certification is not mandated.

Fire cupboards in our range vary significantly in weight — from 125Kgs for the Tijori SG2 up to 660Kgs for the SecurePlus 172 series. The heavier the cabinet, the more inherent theft resistance it offers. Before ordering a large unit, check your floor's load-bearing capacity with your building facilities team, particularly for upper-floor office installations. As a rule of thumb, most commercial office floors in UAE buildings handle 500Kgs per square metre, but it is always worth confirming. Our team can advise on placement during an on-site visit.

Yes. Website prices are a starting point. For orders involving multiple fire cupboards, a combination of models, or a full record room fit-out, Mahmayi's corporate sales team provides project-based pricing. Discounts are available for offices, government entities, legal firms, banks, and any organisation procuring several units at once. Contact our sales team directly with your requirements and quantities for a tailored quote.

Absolutely. Mahmayi's team comes to you — we visit offices and commercial facilities across Dubai and the UAE to assess your storage requirements, measure available space, review floor load capacity, and recommend the right fire cabinet configuration or record room door solution. You do not need to visit a showroom. This on-site planning service is particularly valuable for record room fit-outs where a Godrej security door, multiple fire cupboards, and shelving all need to work together in a single space. Contact us to arrange a site visit.

Both offer strong security, but they serve slightly different needs. Dual key cylinder locks (as on the SecurePlus 172 2-Key model) require two physical keys to open, making them suitable where two-person authorisation is required — common in finance teams or compliance environments. Dial-and-key combination locks (as on the SecurePlus 172 and Leeco 2D-202 Dial models) add a combination code layer on top of the physical key, which means access requires both knowledge of the code and possession of the key — generally considered higher security for single-custodian use. Choose based on your access control policy and how many people need authorised access.

The Godrej Record Room Door with grill is a heavy-duty security door (530Kgs) designed to be fitted at the entrance of a dedicated document storage or archive room, rather than as a standalone cabinet. It is the right solution when you have an entire room of records, files, or valuables that need to be secured as a unit — common in legal firms, government offices, banks, and large corporate headquarters. A fire cabinet, by contrast, is a self-contained unit for departmental or individual use. If you are fitting out a record room from scratch, a combination of the Godrej security door plus internal fire cupboards or shelving gives you both room-level access control and individual document-level protection.
