A storage enclosure for storing containers of hazardous materials with a secondary containment feature being provided by at least one secondary containment shelf suspended from a sub-roof assembly by a plurality of support rods, whereby the secondary containment shelves are suspended within the enclosure free of support from and/or engagement with the side, rear, and front walls, so as to facilitate retention of the containers on the shelves in the event of movement of the unit walls in response to any disturbance, such as in an earthquake, or the like, of the unit. The secondary containment shelf is of a very sturdy construction, employing relatively heavy gauge steel sheets having upstanding, liquid-tight, marginal portions providing a secondary containment of spills or leakage of materials from containers stored on the shelf. Each shelf having at least one drain pipe depending therefrom, for facilitating such spillage or leakage from containers stored thereon.
