No but they're heavy enough to avoid issues. At least all my other cabinets were.

you know it, we screw everything to the wall that has a remote chance of toppling. astrotoy has what looks like bungee cords across each record shelf. paranoia runs high out here.
Yes and every stack of record racks is tied to the studs in the wall by special earthquake straps! Statistics show that more people are hurt in earthquakes by having stuff fall on them (600 hundred records per stack of six Per Madsen cabinets only weighs as much as an NFL lineman) than any other cause (more than buildings collapsing). Of course, here in Northern California we don't have many hurricanes. Just "A Whole Lotta Shakin' going On," sometimes followed by "Great Balls of Fire."
