Government & Public Safety Storage Solutions
Providing government and public safety entities personal storage lockers, secure weapons storage, and high-density shelving from paper to evidence storage.
Secure storage for those who protect and serve
Law enforcement agencies, police departments, and fire departments share critical objectives: enforcing the law, protecting lives, and safeguarding property. Achieving these goals requires more than dedication—it demands organization, efficiency, and security.
Modern Office Systems partners with public safety organizations across New York and New Jersey to create storage solutions that protect critical equipment, preserve chain of custody, and improve operational efficiency.
Why Storage Matters in Public Safety
Proper storage solutions deliver benefits beyond organization:
- Enhanced officer morale through personal lockers that create a true “home away from home”
- Unbreakable chain of custody with secure evidence management systems
- Improved operational efficiency allowing officers to focus on their mission
- Maximum use of limited space with high-density mobile systems
- LEED accreditation support with energy-efficient storage solutions
Officers have a safe, secure place for each piece of equipment they carry while out on the job—and when they return from their shift, their gear should still be kept safe.
Gear Storage
Durable, configurable lockers can achieve this secure storage requirement.
A locker room isn’t just a place to store personnel items and gear—it’s a home away from home in many ways. Our personal storage lockers are infinitely configurable depending on the person using them, and when used in conjunction with a department’s locker room, they’ve actually been known to increase employee morale.
Our personal storage lockers are built for the demands of public safety:
- Durable, heavy-duty construction
- Configurable to individual officer needs
- Optional in-locker ventilation systems
- Specialized drying trays for bulletproof vests
- Space-saving two-tier configurations
- Indirect lighting solutions for LEED compliance
- Retractable benches tested to support 600 pounds
A well-designed locker room isn’t just storage—it’s a reflection of your department’s commitment to its officers.
Short-Term

Long-Term
evidence storage
Once your evidence is bagged and tagged, it needs to be stored safely—and in some cases, indefinitely.
Compact mobile storage can help maintain preservation while maximizing that precious space in your evidence room.
In some cases, larger departments might need to increase their storage space in a designated off-site evidence storage facility. For these departments, high-bay shelving systems can be utilized to extend storage from floor to ceiling.
We understand that departments don’t always have the funding for compact storage, so we also work with you to reconfigure your existing metal shelving to make sure you’re getting the optimum amount of evidence in your square footage.
Weapons need to be easily accessible when needed, and securely stored when not needed.
Weapon Storage
From secure weapons racks to portable gun boxes and wall-mounted weapons lockers to pistol racks, we work with you and the needs of your armory or weapons evidence storage to find the right solution.
filing
In the Public Safety sector, file storage is alive and well. Employee files, arrest warrants, and paperwork relating to a particular case all need to be stored safely and effectively. Installing a high-density mobile system allows department members to quickly retrieve files with the help of a powered control.. Security codes can be integrated with the system to provide an audit trail for who is accessing the files, ultimately providing an optimum level of security.
Overcrowding at correctional facilities has made inmate property storage a more prominent challenge in recent years.
corrections
Between lack of space, shuffling of property for court appearances and hearings, and visitations, items can easily become disorganized – or worse, misplaced. High density mobile shelving compacts your storage in the same storage footprint, allows quick, easy access, and can be optimized to store any size of inmate property bin.
