Anyone have experience with these?

Global Industrial sells them. $119 for a 30x12x30, all welded construction.

I'm looking for cabinet offerings that are all-welded. Do not feel like building some flimsy assembled cabinets and being pissed off when things don't line up right.

Honestly other than the poor construction/quality, I like the Harbor Freight 3-door hanging tool cabinet. Would like to find something similar that is welded.

Those remind me of the Ignition parts cabinets some manufacturers used to offer to garages.

Ha - exactly what I was thinking just a few days ago when I was searching around for a new cabinet to mount with some older parts cabinets I've collected!

They do look like nice cabinets - would like to be able to check one out in person.

I've looked around a lot and have yet to find a "quality" version of the 3-door HF wall cabinet. My opinion is that they really aren't that bad though. And for the price, I was able to get a lot of storage at a low cost.

I have four of those in my lab at work. They aren't junk, and not top of the line. Work fine for what I do.

Hahaha. You're right. Who wants flimsy bolt up cabinets when you can have all welded 22 gauge shelves and undisclosed gauge of cabinet construction. :dunno: I guess I'll have to keep my flimsy 20 gauge double paneled bolted construction.

What cabinets do you have that you are referring to?

The data is a bit lacking on these particular ones, that is why I'm trying to find some real world evidence. Haven't made up my mind one way or the other. The little I could see of the HF cabinets I had mixed feelings. The floor model at my store is locked so I couldn't see inside, but the outside was dented up pretty bad. Welded would be nice simply from a square/easy to hang perspective.

Try my sig. My point is not that my cabinets are the best (they are amazing for the price--search my posts on saber). The point is that I don't see how all welded is important for normal use. The fact is that they are stationary and I think your comment about bolt ups being flimsy misses the mark. A good bolt up isn't going to have issues with being square. And 22 gauge is pretty flimsy welded or not. Also you're going to have to deal with adjusting the doors regardless.
