After the Palisades Fire, virtually everything had been disintegrated into ash. The outside of the filing cabinet was horrific looking, but it did its job. Inside, all of our valuable papers were completely intact. Our passports were pristine. Our deeds were perfect. Our will and trusts were just fine. We just wish we had put more in it. Under its lifetime warranty, FireKing provided us with a new one.

FAQs

Do FireKing products meet GSA or NIST standards for government records?

FireKing fire-resistant products meet UL standards widely referenced in federal procurement and are suitable for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) under NIST SP 800-171 physical protection requirements. For classified information storage, GSA-approved security containers are required. FireKing can assist in identifying appropriate solutions for agency-specific requirements.

We need to store records per NARA retention schedules. What do you recommend?

NARA schedules require records be stored safely for defined retention periods, often decades. FireKing’s UL Class 350, 1- and 2-hour fire-resistant file cabinets are a trusted choice for long-term records protection.

Can we use your cabinets for storing sensitive law enforcement records?

Yes. FireKing’s high-security file cabinets with electronic locks are widely used in law enforcement evidence rooms, detective bureaus, and records divisions. For especially sensitive materials, we offer cabinets with pick-resistant key locks.

Are your products available on GSA Schedule or state contract vehicles?

FireKing products are available through several cooperative purchasing agreements and distribution channels that serve state and local government agencies. Your FireKing regional sales representative can provide current contract information and assist with the procurement process.

What’s the right product for a municipal court clerk’s office?

Court clerk offices typically need high-capacity lateral fire-resistant filing for case files, along with secure storage for cash bonds, seized property receipts, and sensitive documents. FireKing lateral fire files are a popular choice in these environments.

Do FireKing cabinets meet GSA requirements for classified document storage?

Many FireKing models are designed to meet or exceed federal specifications. For classified environments, we recommend models equipped with S&G (Sargent & Greenleaf) Group 2M or electronic locks that meet Federal Specification FF-L-2740B.

What is the UL Impact Rating and why does it matter for government buildings?

FireKing’s UL Impact Rating verifies that if a floor collapses during a fire, the cabinet can withstand a 30-foot drop, be reheated, and still protect its contents. This level of protection is particularly valuable in multi-story government office buildings.

Why is fire-rated storage important for government agencies?

Government agencies maintain records that support public services, legal obligations, and operational continuity. Fire-rated storage helps protect these essential documents from loss or destruction.

Can FireKing solutions scale across departments and facilities?

Yes. FireKing products are designed to support everything from single-office installations to enterprise-wide deployments across multiple departments, facilities, and locations.
