how about using mess tins? put your radio/phone/batteries etc in a box, wrap it in tin foil then put it in the mess tins could even stick a few extras inside then tape them together to keep them shut 
that way you have a faraday cage that you can keep in your car and after an event you can cook your dinner in?
Yep, that'll work provises the lid makes electrical contact with the base.
I use matal biscuit and sweet tins with the shield from tv/ radio coaxial cable soldered onto lid and base to ensure they are contacted. This works fine.

Check to make sure that the soor has electrical continuity with teh body of the cabinet and maybe make a strap lead as described above
Good idea about the non conductive tiles. A good way to test non conductivity is to cut of a small portionof tile and cook it for a minute or wto in your kitchen mucrowave oven. If the sample is still cold after cooking, you can be sure that its non conductive.
