Coins and Metal Storage
There are a wealth of coin and metal collections, both in the public and private domain. Care of such collections is a huge responsibility; both in terms of the historical value of such objects and of course their longevity as a result of appropriate care and preservation.
Storing coins and metal objects properly will ensure their survival for generations to come. They should be kept at a stable temperature and humidity to avoid damage through condensation, as this can lead to tarnishing and rusting of metals.
We understand that metal and coin collections possess a great deal of historical value. They also vary considerably, which is why we have developed a range of shelving designed specifically to suit the various specifications of your collection. We design our system with preservation in mind but we also supply you with a versatile design that can grow with your collection as and when you need it to.
We pride ourselves on the stability and security of our storage systems and, knowing that metal oxides can react with certain materials, we ensure all our shelves are tested to avoid the risk of rust or other pollutants causing any damage.
Our innovative drawer units, either built in to standard bays of shelving or as standalone units, are perfect for your public access and visible storage requirements as they allow coins and metals to be safely preserved whilst still allowing members of the public or faculty to view the collection without touching the objects.
Slide out drawer units and cabinets can be used to accommodate coins and medals.
From initial consultation, our Museums Storage experts will work with you to ensure you get the right solution for your requirement at a price that suits your budget. Our team of specialists will carry out a full audit of your existing collection, as well as liaising with your department to ensure we understand their concerns and the best way to overcome these.
We will provide you with a fully integrated solution that is flexible so that you can adjust it to fit your ongoing storage requirements. Our friendly team is also on hand to provide you with product training should you require it.
