A safety mechanism for ensuring only a single drawer of a cabinet can be opened at any given time, including an elongate member having a plurality of protrusions distributed along a length of the elongate member, and being movable between a locked position and an unlocked position within the cabinet, a plurality of guiding channels, each coupled to one drawer in such a way that a respective protrusion can only enter the guiding channel when the elongate member is in the unlocked position, whereby each guiding channel includes a path profile to move the elongate member between the locked position and the unlocked position via the respective protrusion when a corresponding drawer is in motion, and a plurality of stoppers, each coupled to one drawer for engaging with a respective protrusion when the elongate member is moving towards or in the locked position to prevent a corresponding drawer from movement.
