Gas Bottle Cages & Gas Cylinder Cabinets
A dented valve, a knocked-over bottle, or gas building up in an unventilated corner can turn a routine worksite into an emergency in seconds. That's why businesses across New Zealand rely on Spillbase for gas bottle cages built specifically for the safe indoor and outdoor storage of LPG cylinders, medical gas, and compressed gas bottles.
Whether you're managing a single cage of forklift LPG bottles or a full compound of cylinders for an industrial site, our range of gas bottle cages in NZ ensures you always have compliant storage.
Purpose-Built LPG Bottle Storage Puts Safety First
Ordinary shelving or an open yard corner isn't enough for compliant LPG cylinder storage. Pressurised cylinders present real explosion and toxic exposure risks if they're not secured, ventilated, and separated correctly.
WorkSafe NZ regulations and AS 4332 set out specific requirements for LPG gas bottle storage, and your site's Location Compliance Certificate depends on meeting them. Most insurers also require certified storage for gas cylinders as a condition of cover, so getting it right protects your business as much as your people.
Our gas bottle cages are built from durable, powder-coated steel mesh, giving you the free-flow ventilation needed to stop hazardous gas from concentrating in one spot, which is a core requirement for the safe storage of LPG cylinders. Raised feet make forklift placement easy, and pre-drilled holes let you bolt cages permanently to the ground for added security. Clear signage and labelling zones also make it simple for your team to identify gas types at a glance and keep full and empty cylinders properly separated.
Choosing the Right LPG Bottle Storage
Not every site needs the same setup. Outdoor gas bottle cages are the go-to for forklift LPG bottles and sites needing to relocate storage by forklift or crane, since the open mesh design disperses any leaked gas safely into the air. If you need a fully enclosed unit for an indoor environment, our broader range of dangerous goods cabinets may be a better fit.
Storing other hazardous substances on site? Pair your gas cage with dedicated flammable goods storage, chemical storage cabinets, aerosol storage cabinets, or corrosive storage cabinets to keep every dangerous good compliant, contained, and clearly separated.
Compliant, Practical, Built to Last
Spillbase gas bottle cages are designed to make LPG cylinder storage simple: secure, well-ventilated, easy to inspect, and built to withstand New Zealand conditions.

FAQs
How many LPG gas bottles can be stored together?
This depends on your site"s classification, proximity to boundaries and ignition sources, and your Location Compliance Certificate limits. Smaller sites are typically limited to lower quantities before triggering stricter separation and signage requirements, so it's worth checking your specific certificate or speaking with WorkSafe NZ before adding cylinders.
Do LPG cylinders need to be stored outside?
Outdoor storage is considered best practice, as it allows any leaked gas to disperse safely rather than accumulate. If outdoor storage isn"t possible, cylinders should be kept in a well-ventilated area away from fire-rated walls, ignition sources, and foot traffic.
How far should LPG cylinders be stored from buildings and boundaries?
Separation distances vary depending on the number of cylinders and the site layout, but cages should always be positioned away from doorways, windows, drains, and ignition sources. Check your compliance documentation for the exact distances that apply to your site.
Can gas bottle cages be moved once installed?
Yes, our cages feature raised feet for forklift access, making relocation straightforward. For permanent installations, pre-drilled holes allow the cage to be bolted securely to a concrete pad.
