Abstract
A dual-bracket roll stability device is disclosed that prevents a roll cab from tipping over when the drawers of the roll cab are in a fully-extended position. A first bracket can be coupled to a side of a roll cab and a second bracket can be coupled to a bottom of the roll cab. The brackets each include portions that extend outward to contact the ground when the roll cab begins to tip. These portions are coupled together to distribute the load along the bottom and side portions of the roll cab. Accordingly, when the drawers of the roll cab are fully extended, the stability device can maintain the roll cab's balance while remaining discrete and spatially compact.
