Southwest ISD Adds Maintenance Shop Casework with Stainless Steel Work Surfaces
Southwest ISD needed maintenance shop casework for a new maintenance building in San Antonio, Texas. The project used modular powder-coated steel base cabinets, stainless steel tops, and specialty stainless steel sinks to support daily tool and equipment maintenance in a demanding work area.

Maintenance building casework project completed for Southwest ISD in San Antonio, Texas.
A shop environment used for maintaining tools, equipment, and district facility support items.
Durable maintenance shop casework selected for the location, workflow, and daily use requirements.
Modular powder-coated steel base cabinets with stainless steel work surfaces and three specialty stainless steel sinks created a durable maintenance workspace designed for daily tool and equipment repair.
The finishes were selected to better withstand extended use in a maintenance shop while helping limit cabinet damage over time.
A New Maintenance Shop Required Durable Casework for Tool and Equipment Work
For the new maintenance building, Southwest ISD needed stainless steel topped casework with sinks. Because the cabinets would be used in a maintenance shop, the material selection needed to account for daily work on tools and equipment rather than standard office or classroom use.
The new maintenance building required casework for hands-on tool and equipment maintenance.
The shop location and application made durable cabinet finishes a key requirement.
The project called for stainless steel tops and specialty sinks, including three stainless steel sinks.
Maintenance Shop Casework with Stainless Steel Work Surfaces
Southwest Solutions Group provided modular powder-coated steel base cabinets with stainless steel tops and specialty sinks. The casework was designed around the criteria described by the end user and selected for the demands of the school district maintenance shop environment.
Powder-Coated Steel Base Cabinets
Modular steel base cabinets provided durable storage and work support for the Southwest ISD maintenance building.
Stainless steel work surfaces were used because the shop application required finishes designed to hold up under extended use.
The casework included specialty sink configurations, including three stainless steel sinks, to support maintenance tasks requiring water access.
Base Cabinets Installed Ahead of Longer-Lead-Time Stainless Steel Components
Installation was sequenced around product availability. The modular base cabinets were installed first, and the team returned to install the stainless steel tops and specialty sinks after those components were available.
Install Modular Base Cabinets
The project team installed the powder-coated steel base cabinets in the Southwest ISD maintenance building.
Install Stainless Steel Tops and Sinks
Because the stainless steel components had a longer lead time, the team returned later to install the tops and specialty sinks.
Durable Maintenance Shop Casework Improves Daily Operations
The installed casework gives Southwest ISD’s maintenance building a durable work area for maintaining tools and equipment. Powder-coated steel cabinets, stainless steel tops, and specialty sinks support the shop application while helping reduce the risk of cabinet damage over time.
The solution was selected based on the cabinet location and the maintenance applications the space needed to support.
Powder-coated steel cabinets and stainless steel tops were used because these finishes are better suited for this type of work environment.
The finished casework allows the maintenance team to work on tools and equipment while reducing the risk of long-term cabinet damage.
