New Yorkers’ Guide: Choosing Display & Storage for Figurines & Models

How to Choose Figurine Display Cabinets in New York: Lighted Glass Display Cabinets, Building Block Model Display Racks, and Steel Dust – Proof Toy Storage Cabinets

General Specification Parameters for Figurine Display Cabinets, Pain Cabinets, Lighted Glass Display Cabinets, Building Block Model Display Racks, and Steel Dust – Proof Toy Storage Cabinets

I. Color Options

Two classic color options, black and white, are provided to match various decoration styles and personal aesthetic preferences. Black is calm and imposing, highlighting the quality of the collections, and is suitable for creating a low – key and luxurious display atmosphere. White is simple and bright, adding a refreshing feeling to the space. It is suitable for minimalist, Nordic – style scenes and can easily blend into home and commercial display environments.

II. Dimension Specifications

(1) Regular Dimension Combinations

A variety of length, width, and height (mm) specifications are available to meet diverse needs:

• Height Dimensions: 1600mm, 1800mm, and 2000mm are included. 1600mm is suitable for home spaces (such as living room corners, bedrooms), without creating a sense of oppression. 1800mm is suitable for commercial displays (pop – up toy stores, figurine exhibition halls) and slightly taller spaces, enhancing the three – dimensional sense of the display. 2000mm is used to create a visual focal point, highlighting the grandeur in high – ceiling spaces.
• Width Dimensions: Options include 400mm, 500mm, 600mm, and 800mm. 400mm – 600mm is suitable for displaying small and delicate collections (such as single figurines, small building block models), focusing on details. The 800mm width can accommodate more and larger – sized collections (combined figurine scenes, large – scale building blocks), enabling rich displays.
• Depth Dimensions: 400mm and 500mm are available. A 400mm depth highlights the display of thin and light collections, presenting a concise effect. A 500mm depth is suitable for thick, base – equipped collections (large – scale statue figurines, multi – layer building blocks), providing sufficient space to prevent the collections from being squeezed.

High – quality cold – rolled steel is used to ensure the strength and stability of the cabinet. The thickness of the cold – rolled steel frame is 1.0 – 1.2mm, with excellent load – bearing performance. It can bear multiple layers of collections (such as full of figurines, building block models) for a long time without deformation, meeting regular display needs and being adaptable to different usage environments.

(2) Panel and Glass Materials

• Cabinet Panels: Environment – friendly boards or metal – textured panels are selected to match the frame material, achieving a unified texture. The environment – friendly boards have a smooth surface, are easy to clean, and exude a natural atmosphere. Metal panels enhance the modern and industrial style, upgrading the overall style of the display cabinet.
• Glass Materials: The glass of the cabinet doors and shelves is tempered glass with a light transmittance of over 90%, clearly presenting the details of the collections without the “greenish” defect. After tempering, it has strong impact resistance, ensuring safe use. It is not easy to break in case of accidental collision, providing a transparent and safe display environment for the collections.

(3) Accessory Materials

• Locks: Zinc – alloy or stainless – steel locks are used. Zinc – alloy locks have diverse shapes and high cost – performance, while stainless – steel locks are corrosion – resistant and have high strength. Both have good anti – theft performance, protecting the safety of the collections in the cabinet.
• Hinges: Stainless – steel hinges are used, which have strong load – bearing capacity and are not easy to rust. After multiple opening and closing tests, they ensure the smooth opening and closing of the cabinet doors and have a long service life.
• Light Strips (for lighted models): LED light strips are used, with the lamp bead voltage of 12V – 24V (safe low voltage). The brightness is adjustable (warm light creates a warm atmosphere, and cold light highlights the quality of the collections), enabling the switching of lighting scenes.

III. Functional Configuration Parameters

(1) Display Functions

• Shelf Design: The shelves are of an adjustable structure, and the shelf spacing can be freely adjusted. For small figurines and small building block models, the spacing can be reduced to increase the number of display layers and make full use of the space. For large – sized collections, the spacing can be increased to avoid squeezing. Anti – slip pads can be added to the edges of the shelves to prevent the collections from sliding and shifting.
• Partitioned Display: Displays can be partitioned according to the types of collections (figurines, building block models, etc.) or themes. By adjusting the height of the shelves and matching different color – temperature light strips, the display areas can be distinguished, highlighting the key points of the display and enhancing the visual hierarchy and appreciation. For example, warm light can be used in the figurine area to create a storytelling atmosphere, and cold light can be used in the building – block – model area to highlight the sense of technology.

(2) Storage and Protection Functions

• Dust – proof Sealing: A rubber seal is used between the cabinet body and the cabinet door, which fits tightly to effectively block dust and mosquitoes from entering, keeping the inside of the cabinet clean and reducing the cleaning frequency of the collections. The seal is resistant to aging and deformation, and can still maintain a good sealing effect after long – term use, providing a clean storage environment for the collections.
• Moisture – proof Option: Moisture – proof modules (moisture – proof and dehumidifying boxes, active dehumidification devices) can be optionally equipped for use in humid environments (southern rainy seasons, basements). They can absorb or actively remove the moisture inside the cabinet, preventing figurines, building block models, etc. from getting damp, mildewing, rusting, or changing color, and protecting the appearance and value of the collections.
