Do tall storage cabinets need to be anchored to the wall?

Any cabinet 48 inches or taller should be anti-tip anchored — especially once the shelves are loaded. A tall, fully loaded cabinet can tip when the top shelf is accessed or when someone leans on the door. Most commercial cabinets include wall-anchor hardware or a built-in anti-tip strap. For seismic zones or environments where children are present, anchoring is non-negotiable. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960 for guidance on anti-tip hardware.
