OSM modular storage: building a workshop that works
Fixed workshop furniture cannot be adapted as tool inventories grow or workshop layouts change. The BOXO OSM modular system from Serenco UK addresses this by building workshop storage from panels, frames, and fittings that bolt together in configurable layouts — and can be reconfigured or extended without replacement.
The system's core construction uses steel panels connected by metal panel connectors. Shelving heights are adjustable, drawer units and cabinet modules attach to the same frame structure, and the system can be built against a wall or as a freestanding island unit.
BOXO cabinets within the OSM range include two-door steel-top units in a 700mm deep format. The integrated lamp holder mounting and six-way power outlet adaptor for OSM mean the workstation also provides controlled lighting and power, removing trailing leads from the floor and reducing tripping hazard.
BOXO drawer dividers and document shelves complete the utility — dividers prevent tools from migrating across the drawer, and the document shelf provides a dedicated space for job cards and service manuals.

Frequently asked questions
What is the BOXO OSM system?
OSM (Open Storage Module) is a modular steel workshop storage system from BOXO, supplied through Serenco UK. It builds workshops using configurable steel panels, shelving, and cabinet units that attach to a common frame structure. The system can be extended, reconfigured, or relocated as workshop requirements change.
Is the OSM system freestanding or wall-mounted?
The OSM system can be configured as both. The panel and bracket construction allows freestanding units and wall-mounted sections within the same system.
What is the cabinet depth of the BOXO two-door OSM cabinet?
The BOXO two-door cabinet in the OSM range is a 700mm deep unit, providing a larger internal storage volume than standard tool cabinet depths.
Can I add power outlets and lighting to an OSM workstation?
Yes. The BOXO six-way power outlet for OSM provides controlled workshop power within the storage unit. Lamp holder attachments allow workshop lighting to be integrated into the storage structure.
