The World’s Safest Break Glass Cabinets
United States Patent No. 5638906


Protecting commercial property against horseplay, vandalism, and theft is more critical today than ever before, as these activities increase the frequency of broken fire safety equipment and the potential for serious injury. Using cabinets without specialized tempered safety glass significantly increases a building owner’s liability. Potter Roemer Break Rite® cabinets feature a patented, easy-pull handle and high-performance tempered safety glass designed to shatter into small, harmless pellets, effectively eliminating the risk of sharp-edge injuries and associated owner liability issues. Remember, whether the cabinet is locked or not, in an emergency, the glass is designed to break safely.
