Wooden filing cabinets maybe less widely used than their metal equivalents but the warmer qualities of wood is still preferred in many offices.
All filing cabinets listed in this category arrive pre-assembled in the manufacturers packaging. The handles of our deluxe wooden filers are reversed to prevent transit damage.
Our wooden filing cabinets are constructed from melamine faced chipboard with a realistic woodgrain effect.
These filing cabinets also feature 100% drawer extension where the internal drawers are designed to pull out 100% so that even the files at the back of the drawer can be easily accessible. An anti tilt mechanism is a standard feature designed to prevent more than one drawer being opened at once and thus aid stability.
Deskshop recommends that suspension files should be initially loaded into the bottom drawers of the wooden filing cabinet to aid stability.
Most of our filing cabinets are designed to store foolscap suspension file folders (also known as tab files) that hang on runners inside each drawer. Please note that the weight is designed to be supported on the sides of the wooden filing cabinet drawers and consequently it is not recommended to use these filing cabinets as normal drawers. The drawer bases are not designed to be strong enough to support the weight of a drawer full of documents and such usage is not covered by manufacturers warranty.
Is the paperless office a fact or myth? The ongoing popularity of filing cabinets would seem to indicate that most offices still generate paperwork that has to be filed away.
