Competitor Comparison:
Most sharps enclosures use lightweight metal or plastic and fail under force. The AA-SC100 features 12-gauge stainless steel, crossbar locking, and secure wall mounting — far exceeding the construction and durability of standard enclosures used in hospitals or public restrooms. Competing products do not offer the same level of containment security or warranty protection.

Supply Chain
Due to increased demand, more time be required for production. If you have a critical delivery date requirement, please call or email to verify lead times prior to placing an order.
Stocked Items
For certain items that we sell often, we do our best to either keep inventory on the shelf or keep a constant production cue going. For items that are considered "stocked" we will generally be able to ship within 5 business days or less.
Why Are Stocked Items More Expensive?
We're adapting to your needs! While we specialize in made-to-order products, we recognize the growing demand for immediate availability. Adjusting to this requires foresight in demand anticipation, material procurement, initiating stock production, and warehousing—all incurring additional costs. Consequently, our stocked items are priced to reflect these overheads. For customers who can accommodate a production lead time, we're pleased to offer discounted pricing as a thank you for your flexibility.
