CMI Drug Safe DS4 D – Government-Compliant Security for Medical and Pharmaceutical Storage
The CMI Drug Safe DS4 D is a professionally engineered, heavy-duty drug storage solution that meets the highest compliance standards required in Australian healthcare, pharmaceutical, and veterinary environments. Designed for storing Schedule 8 and other controlled medications, the CMI Drug Safe DS4 D complies with both the Medicines, Poisons and Therapeutic Goods Regulation Act 2008 (ACT) and the Drugs, Poisons and Controlled Substances Regulations 2017 (VIC).
With full 10mm steel construction, electronic locking options, and secure bolt-down anchoring, this drug safe ensures legal compliance while delivering long-term protection against unauthorized access, theft, and tampering. It is the preferred choice for hospitals, clinics, aged care facilities, pharmacies, and mobile medical services seeking a reliable, regulation-compliant drug security solution.
Why Choose the CMI Drug Safe DS4 D?
When it comes to safeguarding restricted and high-risk medications, compliance and durability are non-negotiable. The CMI Drug Safe DS4 D delivers both, offering industry-certified protection and flexible configuration to suit a variety of institutional and clinical settings.
1. Fully Compliant with Australian Drug Storage Laws
The CMI Drug Safe DS4 D is specifically designed to meet and exceed the requirements of Australian drug storage legislation, including:
-
Medicines, Poisons and Therapeutic Goods Regulation 2008 (ACT)
-
Drugs, Poisons and Controlled Substances Regulations 2017 (VIC)
Compliance with these regulations ensures your facility remains audit-ready and legally protected. It is an essential asset for any medical practice or pharmacy handling Schedule 4 and Schedule 8 drugs, including opioids and narcotics.
2. Heavy-Duty 10mm Steel Body with Advanced Locking
The entire safe is constructed from 10mm solid steel, offering substantial resistance against physical attack. Internally, it features retractable bolt work, which secures the door to the frame with heavy-duty locking bars that are concealed when locked. This makes forced entry via prying or levering extremely difficult.
The DS4 D model comes standard with an electronic digital lock, offering secure PIN access for authorized staff. Optional upgrades include combination locks, card swipe entry, and locking status switches, allowing institutions to customize access control according to their internal protocols.
For added protection, an emergency key override system is available at an additional cost—ensuring access during power outages or electronic malfunctions.
3. Highly Secure Installation with Dual Bolt Options
To prevent unauthorized removal or tampering, the CMI Drug Safe DS4 D is fitted with eight 16mm bolt-down holes:
-
Four located in the base
-
Four located in the back panel
This provides maximum flexibility during installation, allowing the safe to be securely mounted to concrete floors or brick walls—meeting the standard storage conditions expected by health departments across Australia.
4. Organized Storage with Adjustable Shelves
The safe includes five adjustable internal shelves, allowing clinical staff to segment medications by category, batch, or usage frequency. This promotes safe storage practices and helps facilities maintain efficient drug management systems, whether storing blister packs, glass vials, or boxed medications.
5. Clean, Professional Aesthetic and Practical Dimensions
Finished in a sleek silver grey powder-coated exterior, the CMI Drug Safe DS4 D projects a professional and hygienic image suitable for hospital pharmacies, dispensary rooms, and veterinary practices.
Its exterior depth measurement does not include handle, hinges, or digital projection, allowing for easier planning during installation. This detail-oriented design ensures the safe fits flush with cabinetry or recessed wall spaces where appearance and space management are important.
6. Industry-Leading Warranty Coverage
CMI backs the Drug Safe DS4 D with a generous 5-year warranty on the body of the safe, and a 2-year warranty on the lock mechanism. This extended coverage reflects CMI’s confidence in their manufacturing quality and provides users with long-term peace of mind.
