We can’t stress enough how crucial it is to store and transport gas cylinders properly. Whether you're in construction, manufacturing, medical, hospitality, or agriculture, having the right cylinder storage solution is not just about compliance—it’s about protecting your people, property, and productivity.
What Are Cylinder Cages & Stands?
Cylinder cages and stands are purpose-built solutions designed to safely store and transport gas cylinders of various sizes and types, including oxygen, acetylene, propane, nitrogen, and CO₂. They come in multiple configurations—from mobile gas bottle trolleys and single-cylinder stands to robust steel cages capable of holding multiple cylinders.
These products serve a vital role in minimising the risks associated with gas storage: fire, explosion, leaks, and accidents due to falling or rolling cylinders. Our selection caters to every need, whether you're storing cylinders long-term or moving them around a job site daily.
Why You Need a Cylinder Cage or Stand
✅ Safety & Compliance
Gas cylinders are classified as hazardous materials. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) in the UK mandates that all gas cylinders must be stored upright, secured, and protected from impact or unauthorised access. Failure to comply can result in fines, injuries, or worse.
A high-quality cylinder cage or stand ensures your operations stay fully compliant with UK legislation, including:
- BS EN 14470-2 standards for gas cylinder storage
- DSEAR (Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations)
- PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations)
All our products are manufactured to meet or exceed these standards, giving you peace of mind every time.

Cylinder Storage FAQs
Absolutely. Most of our static cages and stands come with pre-drilled anchor points for floor or wall fixing. For mobile units, we offer optional locking kits or anti-roll brakes. If you’re working in a high-theft-risk area, ask us about heavy-duty options with tamper-proof hinges and anti-cut mesh.
Technically, yes—but with strict separation. Oxygen and acetylene must be stored at least 1 metre apart or separated by a non-combustible partition at least 30 minutes fire-resistant. Some of our dual-compartment cages are designed with this in mind, offering physically divided sections to store fuel and oxidiser gases safely and in compliance with DSEAR and BCGA guidelines.
Yes—many of our cages are built with galvanised or powder-coated steel specifically for harsh outdoor conditions. If you're operating in coastal, chemical, or high-rainfall areas, we recommend galvanised finishes or marine-grade powder coatings to prevent rust and corrosion. Look for products marked as “outdoor-rated” or ask us about salt spray resistance ratings.
A forkliftable cage is designed with integrated fork pockets, allowing it to be moved by forklift even when fully loaded. This is crucial for high-volume users or depots with frequently relocated gas stocks. Standard cages are more static and ideal for fixed-location storage, like construction compounds or rear-of-house installations.
