NuTone® Locking Medicine Cabinet Provides Secure Storage
for Prescription Drugs
Hartford, Wis., May 1, 2009 – In
response to the recent scare of teens and young adults stealing and abusing
prescription medications, NuTone® has introduced the new Locking
Medicine Cabinet to secure valuables as well as prescription and
over-the-counter drugs.
"As the abuse of prescription and over-the-counter drugs continues to
rise, a solution has become available for parents and homeowners to safeguard
life-threatening items,” says Julie Allongue, marketing manager, medicine
cabinets, Broan-NuTone. “The Locking Medicine Cabinet can provide peace
of mind for homeowners, without compromising personal style.”
According to The Partnership for a
Drug-Free America™, prescription drug abuse by teens and young
adults in the United States is a serious problem. In fact, one in five
teens has abused a prescription pain medication; one in five report abusing
prescription stimulants and tranquilizers; and one in 10 has abused cough
medication.
Additional unique features of the NuTone Locking Medicine Cabinets include:
- Inconspicuous and durable keyed mechanism – limiting access
to stored contents
- Durable piano hinge, adjustable glass shelves, innovative soft-close
magnet, and a rust-resistant white steel body
- Contemporary frame – available in oil-rubbed bronze and satin
nickel finishes
- Cabinets are reversible for right-or left-hand openings and accommodate
a wall opening of 14 inches wide by 24 inches high by three inches
deep.
