Posted By John Sproul Cath There are several suppliers of various sizes of secure cages for gas bottle storage. Details can be found on the internet. Some users also loop a security chain through the bottle tops and fasten it with a heavy duty padlock either to a wall or ground mounted secure anchor as an added measure in case the cage is breached. Hope this helps. Regards, John.

Posted By Renny Thomson TechSP You could use a suitable cage type structure to secure the cylinders in. Either buy a proprietary storage cage, or have one built. Ventilation is a must, so I would strongly advise against storage of cylinders indoors. I would also contact the local fire service and advise them of the presence and location of the cylinders. Your fire risk assessment should also be revised.
