This is a five drawer Hamilton container missing a GSA red label on the control drawer. David was called out on this container, the customer had X-07 that failed. After David drilled this safe, he noticed The control drawer had several issues that needed to be addressed before it could be put back into service. The control drawer was replaced at one time, the color was gray before David inspected it.















A close up of the control drawer.

This container has one cookie sheet for each drawer, however on other containers they may be absent, depending on who is the manufacture and what year it was made. On some containers the cookie sheet is welded into place.




Checking every drawer for modifications, making sure the drawer latch works.












Control drawer to be inspected, the X-09 lock has to be removed during the inspection. No modifications can be made to the container other than a repair under the dial and the repair falls under Federal Specification 809A. As you can see David painted the inside of the drawer.











This serial number is located on the container not just the control Drawer. Depending on the manufacture and year a container may have or not have one.

Re-certification of a GSA container is extensive in that the whole container must be inspected for any anomalies after it left the factory. Sometimes the GSA container may be re-certified without having to perform work on it, and then there are times a GSA container may need work, which will cost more than just a re-certification of a GSA container.
