Metro Starsys Scope Cabinet


The Starsys Scope Storage Cabinet is a high-density storage solution, which provides quick access and retrieval, visual inventory and easy identification.  The Metro Carousel rack  easily rotates, bringing each scope bracket front and center for tangle-free retrieval or return.  Each rack holds up to 11 scopes.  Single-wide cabinets contain one rack (capacity: 11) and double-wide cabinets contain two racks (capacity: 22).  This equates to an average of (3) scopes per square foot and more impressively, more scopes per linear foot (6) than any cabinet on the market.

Double-Wide Scope Cabinet

Metro’s carousel rack has a stainless steel post with adjustment grooves in one inch increments.  This allows height adjustment for the scope brackets, cord managers, hoop and bumper to accommodate various scope lengths.  The scope bracket and cord managers can be easily removed without tools.  As technology progresses and scope dimensions change, new brackets may be installed in existing cabinets, saving the expense of a new cabinet.

Scope Bracket

The cabinet is constructed with polymer side panels which will not rust, dent, chip, flake or corrode.  The 2-piece plastic bottom drip pan contains remaining fluids and is easily removed for cleaning and drying.  To prevent potential scope damage, the polymer solid door will not deflect upon impact. Scope cabinets are offered with or without doors.  Those with doors have vents that are strategically located at top and bottom of doors to allow air flow.
