How does cabinet height affect storage stability and tipping risk?

As cabinet height increases, the risk of forward tipping increases because the center of gravity rises. A 78-inch tall cabinet with heavy items on the top shelf is significantly more prone to tipping than a 36-inch credenza. Safety practices: always load heavy items in the lowest shelves, never load a single top shelf heavily while other shelves are empty, use anti-tip brackets or wall anchoring on cabinets taller than 48 inches. In seismic zones, anchoring tall cabinets is typically required by code regardless of how they're loaded.
