Response to How to set up a darkroom rental space?

from DK Thompson (kthompson@moh.dcr.state.nc.us)
here...this is kreonite:

go to the Kreolab heading. If you go for a rental lab, think about insurance requirements & safety as well...emergency exits, ventilation, eyewashes etc.....stuff like concrete floors & floor drains are great if you can get that far...don't want to sound alarmist or too anal, but if it were me--I'd go for the CYA all-out safety scenario to protect myself from any unforeseen accidents from users....if you can afford 'em....those Kreonite cabinets & enlarging stations are great.....some other manufacturers to try would be Regal/Arkay, California Stainless, maybe Colex (?? dunno--they do processors mostly), ESECO--for revolving doors etc. and last, but not least--try your local & state surplus lots for used lab gear....I see alot of places going digital & surplusing entire wet labs full of this sort of gear....if your school is within a public system, your agency usualky gets first pick of surplused gear--at least in my state--if the school is a non-profit/public one, and you can get access to Federal surplus...that's the best of all. Hope this helps,
