How should flammable liquids be stored?

• A. On open shelves near ignition sources.
• B. In regular cabinets near doors.
• C. In any container on the floor.
• D. In approved flammable cabinets away from ignition sources and heat.

Answer: (D)

Storing flammable liquids safely means using approved flammable-storage cabinets that are designed to contain vapors and resist ignition, kept away from heat and any ignition sources. These cabinets provide fire resistance, help contain spills, and keep containers closed and organized, which reduces vapor buildup and exposure. The other methods expose the liquids to heat or sparks and increase the risk of vapors igniting or spills spreading—open shelves near ignition sources, regular cabinets near doors, or containers left on the floor do not offer the necessary protection.
