The system is modular in construction and comprises of six basic components all of which can be delivered flat packed in parts or fully assembled. These can be in a format to build single or multiple cabinet sites and sizes. The systems foundation is constructed from Cubis’ STAKKAbox™ ULTIMA Connect chamber providing easy access and a lightweight system that is adapted on site during installation.

Cover and Frame Modules

Cover and Frame Modules

Between cabinets, lightweight aluminium frames fix to both the base module below and the cabinet modules adjacent to provide strength and stability. Each frame has integral earthing points, so all modules can be linked together. GRP covers fit into the frame and form a safe hard-standing area.
