Cabinet only — no medical supplies included. This listing is the metal semi-recessed wall cabinet. Bleeding-control kits and carriers are sold separately; see the 8-Pack station bundles for cabinet-plus-kit combinations.
A public-access bleeding-control program only works if a bystander can find a kit in seconds — the same way they already know to find an AED or a fire extinguisher. Loose kits in a drawer or a back office fail that test exactly when it counts.
Where does a public bleeding-control kit live so anyone finds it fast?
In a permanent, marked wall station. The NAR Metal Semi-Recessed Cabinet houses NAR’s 8-Pack bleeding-control kit carriers in an AED-style enclosure built for high-traffic institutions — schools, hospitals, corporate and government buildings, transit hubs. Institutional-grade metal takes daily corridor wear; high-visibility identification panels match the AED and fire-extinguisher signage occupants are already trained to scan for; and a single-action door gives rapid access under stress. The semi-recessed body sits partway inside the wall, cutting the cabinet’s protrusion into corridors and lobbies where a surface-mount box would be a pedestrian obstruction, while keeping a full door swing. Pair it with NAR 8-Pack nylon or vacuum-sealed carriers for a complete wall station.

When to Deploy Metal Semi-Recessed Cabinet
- School corridor installation: Semi-recessed metal cabinets mount flush to hallway walls in K-12 and university buildings, housing bleeding control packs in a highly visible and accessible location without protruding into walkways.
- Corporate and office building AED pairing: Installed alongside AED stations in office lobbies and corridors, the cabinet completes a comprehensive stop-the-bleed response station.
- Stadium and venue deployment: High-occupancy venues install semi-recessed cabinets at regular intervals throughout concourses, making bleeding control accessible throughout the facility.
- Hospital and healthcare facility placement: Hospitals install cabinets in waiting rooms, corridors, and parking structures to enable immediate bleeding control response by bystanders before clinical staff arrive.
- Government building security integration: Federal and municipal buildings integrate bleeding control cabinets into security and emergency response infrastructure alongside defibrillators and fire suppression equipment.
What's Included:
- Metal semi-recessed wall cabinet (cabinet only)
- Mounting hardware and installation template
Bleeding control packs sold separately. Compatible with NAR PABC nylon and vacuum-sealed packs.
Best Practice: Position the cabinet at eye level (approximately 48–54 inches from floor to cabinet center) for maximum visibility and ADA-compatible access. Pair with clear signage and include cabinet location in your building emergency response plan.
How Metal Semi-Recessed Cabinet Compares
Semi-recessed vs. surface-mount cabinet: Surface-mount cabinets protrude from the wall, posing an obstruction in high-traffic corridors. The semi-recessed design sits flush with the wall surface, meeting building code and ADA clearance requirements in most jurisdictions. See all bleeding control stations at tactical-medicine.com.
Metal vs. polycarbonate cabinet: Metal cabinets offer superior durability in high-traffic, vandalism-prone, and outdoor-adjacent environments. Polycarbonate cabinets provide full visibility of contents without opening the door — useful where regular visual inspection is preferred. NAR offers both options.
Semi-recessed cabinet vs. standalone kit holder: Standalone holders require structural modifications to secure properly and often lack the environmental protection of an enclosed cabinet. The semi-recessed metal cabinet provides secure, weather-resistant storage with a standard locked/alarmed door option.
