Protection by Application
Government & Defense Education Industrial IT & Telecom Public Safety
Specialty Cases has helped organizations protect, transport, deploy, and store valuable equipment since 1989.
Healthcare Aerospace Broadcast & AV Test & Measurement Trade Shows
Start with the equipment, operating environment, transport method, and protection requirements.
Choose the right starting point
Begin with what the equipment must go through: parcel or freight shipping, vehicle transport, field deployment, repeated setup, storage, weather exposure, or frequent handling. Then compare usable interior size, construction, mobility, access, and interior protection.
Before ordering, measure the equipment at its widest, tallest, and deepest points, including connectors, handles, mounts, cables, and accessories. Record the loaded weight and leave room for the selected foam, dividers, or organizer.
Choose by work environment
Select the closest operating environment to compare common equipment, transport demands, useful case types, and products. If your work spans industries, choose by equipment below.
Government & Defense
Start here for communications systems, rack-mounted electronics, computers, instruments, field kits, and mission-support hardware moved between facilities or deployment sites.
Compare first: loaded weight, rack depth and U height, lifting method, shipment frequency, removable-lid access, interior cushioning, quantity, and delivery schedule.
Education
Use for laptops, tablets, AV systems, mobile labs, training kits, and shared devices moving between classrooms, campuses, storage rooms, or training sites.
Compare first: device count, charging and accessory space, screen separation, rolling mobility, storage requirements, and who will lift the loaded case.
Industrial & Field Service
Use for diagnostic instruments, tools, electronics, replacement parts, controls, and service kits moving between facilities, vehicles, and job sites.
Compare first: exposure and handling risk, kit layout, part visibility, wheel requirements, loaded weight, field access, and replacement availability.
IT & Infrastructure
Start with the server type, rack depth, U height, networking hardware, laptops, cables, and accessories that travel for deployment, service, recovery, or relocation.
Compare first: installed weight, front and rear rack access, shock isolation, cable storage, lift points, wheels, shipping method, and deployment sequence.
Public Safety
Use for communications devices, incident-command electronics, response kits, field gear, and mobile systems that must be located, moved, and opened quickly.
Compare first: deployment speed, item visibility, labeling and organization, weather or dust exposure, wheels, vehicle storage, and one- or two-person handling.
Healthcare
Use for diagnostic devices, instruments, portable electronics, mobile technology, and technical kits that require an organized packing layout for transport or storage.
Compare first: exact dimensions, loaded weight, accessory separation, interior contact points, repeat-transport frequency, inventory checks, and shipping method.
Aerospace
Use for instrumentation, electronics, maintenance tools, aircraft components, test equipment, and technical kits moving between storage, service, test, and operating locations.
Compare first: equipment sensitivity, shipping frequency, controlled tool layout, accessory accountability, wheels or lift points, and repeat handling.
Broadcast & AV
Use for rack-mounted electronics, displays, cameras, audio systems, control equipment, cables, and mobile production rigs that travel between venues.
Compare first: rack access, screen size, packed orientation, setup order, cable organization, rolling distance, doorway clearance, and repeated loading.
Scientific & Technical
Use for measurement instruments, data-acquisition systems, calibration tools, sensors, laboratory electronics, and field-testing equipment with defined accessories and packing positions.
Compare first: sensitivity, transport orientation, foam clearance, accessory separation, calibration-tool storage, wheels, and parcel or freight handling.
Exhibits & Demonstrations
Use for displays, demo products, booth hardware, monitors, presentation systems, samples, and reusable exhibit materials moving through warehouses, carriers, hotels, and venues.
Compare first: packed size, event frequency, carrier method, venue pathways, setup order, labeled packing positions, wheels, and return shipping.
Know the equipment? Start here
Choose the product family that matches the equipment or installed format. On the category page, filter by usable dimensions, then compare loaded weight, wheels, handles, lid or rack access, and interior configuration.
Start here for standalone electronics, instruments, tools, and field kits. Compare usable interior dimensions, shipment method, loaded weight, wheels, and empty, foam, or divider interiors.
Compare Shipping CasesUse for electronics already mounted—or intended to be mounted—in rack rails. Record rack units (U), rack depth, installed weight, front and rear access, and whether the system travels assembled.
Compare Rack CasesChoose single-device or multi-device transport. Count devices and include chargers, docks, adapters, and cables; then compare screen separation, accessory storage, wheels, and loaded handling weight.
Compare Laptop & Tablet CasesUse for rackmount or tower server transport. Record chassis dimensions, installed rails, handles, weight, cables, and accessories; verify the usable interior and lifting plan before ordering.
Compare Server Shipping CasesMeasure the complete display in its packed configuration, including any stand, bracket, or handle that remains attached. Compare screen quantity, orientation, bezel clearance, accessory storage, and rolling needs.
Compare Flat Screen CasesUse for service kits, tools, parts, instruments, and accessories that need a repeatable layout or quick inventory. Compare divider or foam options, small-parts storage, usable depth, wheels, and loaded weight.
Compare Utility CasesNot sure which family fits? Browse all case categories. If stock dimensions or interiors do not match the equipment, compare custom case and interior options .
Build your requirements
Record length, width, and depth at the widest points. Include knobs, connectors, handles, mounts, attached cables, and every accessory that must share the case. Record the combined equipment weight.
List each stage: storage, hand carrying, vehicle transport, parcel or freight shipping, air travel, and field use. Note repeated impacts, vibration, dust, moisture, temperature changes, and how often the case will travel.
Identify who will move the loaded case and every doorway, stair, threshold, loading height, and vehicle opening along the route. Decide whether you need wheels, pull handles, removable lids, rack access, or work-from-case access.
Choose empty space, foam, dividers, organizers, or a custom layout before confirming fit. Add case quantity, required delivery date, replacement needs, and whether future orders must use the same configuration.
A case fits only when its usable interior, selected padding, loaded weight, and handling method work together. Exterior dimensions alone do not confirm equipment fit.
For quotes, projects and repeat orders
Since 1989, Specialty Cases has helped organizations evaluate equipment fit, transport conditions, interiors, availability, and purchasing requirements. Include the details below to reduce follow-up questions and narrow the options more efficiently.
Send the equipment make and model, widest dimensions, combined weight, accessories, protrusions, quantity per case, and any items that must remain connected or immediately accessible.
Note the shipping and handling method, environmental exposure, lift or wheel requirements, access needs, and preferred foam, divider, organizer, or empty interior. Also review contact customer-service for information regarding shipping, returns, warranties, and ordering details.
Include the total quantity, destination, required delivery date, purchasing process, and whether the configuration must support replacements or repeat orders. If a preferred case is unavailable, identify which specifications can change and which cannot.
Practical answers for measuring equipment, allowing for an interior, checking product claims, and planning a larger order.
Start with the industry when transport conditions, workflow, or deployment environment will drive the decision. Start with the equipment when you already know the format—such as a rack, server, laptop fleet, display, instrument, tool kit, or standalone shipping case.
Measure length, width, and depth at the widest points, including handles, connectors, mounts, feet, knobs, and anything left attached. Record the equipment and accessory weight, quantity per case, and the dimensions of every item that must share the interior.
Required clearance depends on equipment weight and sensitivity, the transport environment, and the selected interior. Confirm fit after the foam, dividers, organizer, or custom layout is defined; do not match bare equipment dimensions directly to the case's usable interior.
No. Industry categories are comparison starting points. Fit, ingress or impact ratings, certifications, and other performance claims apply only when they are documented for the specific product and configuration. Verify the product specifications against the equipment and trip.
Provide the preferred product or complete equipment specification, total quantity, destination, required delivery date, interior requirements, and repeat-order needs. This makes it easier to review availability, quote requirements, and acceptable alternatives.
Compare nearby stock sizes only after accounting for the complete interior and handling limits. If none works, provide the equipment dimensions, weight, quantity, transport environment, access needs, and interior layout to evaluate custom foam, organizers, or case options.
