Abstract: A laboratory station has a sink area and a work area separated by a shield. A computer monitor station is present in the work area having a first and second position. In the first position, the computer monitor is located below the top surface of the laboratory table top. In the second position at least a portion of the computer monitor is located above the table top. The shield is preferably transparent to allow vision there through while preventing water from leaving the sink area and potentially entering the work area.

Abstract: An improved, under-counter flammable material storage cabinet which complies with all present fire codes and which overcomes problems associated with access to the utility conduits behind the storage cabinet is provided. The cabinet is self-closing in the presence of internal or external heat to either contain a fire within the cabinet or to keep materials inside the cabinet from combusting from an external fire. The cabinet advantageously utilizes a wooden storage container insert which may be removably affixed within the cabinet frame to provide a storage area wherein flammable materials can be safely stored while at the same time allowing access as necessary to utility conduits installed behind the cabinets.
