Filing Cabinets: FAQ

Will this filing cabinet fit under my standard desk?

Always check the height specifications in centimeters, as desk clearances vary globally. Look for 'low-profile' or 'mobile pedestal' descriptions to ensure it fits comfortably beneath your workspace.

How can I verify the material quality of a steel cabinet?

Look for 'cold-rolled steel' in the specs and check the product weight; high-quality industrial cabinets are significantly heavier than budget plastic alternatives. Thicker gauge steel ensures the unit won't dent easily.

What indicates a smooth and durable drawer mechanism?

Prioritize listings that mention 'ball-bearing slides' rather than simple plastic rollers. Ball-bearing tracks allow drawers to open fully and quietly even when loaded with heavy paper files.

How are these bulky items protected during international shipping?

Reputable sellers use reinforced corner guards and dual-layer corrugated packaging. Always review the 'Customer Reviews' section for photos of the packaging to ensure the seller has a good track record of safe delivery.

Recommendations for buyers

✓
Anti-Tilt Mechanism
Ensure the cabinet features a safety system that allows only one drawer to open at a time, preventing the unit from tipping over when the top drawer is full.
✓
Central Locking System
Look for units where a single key lock secures all drawers simultaneously, providing better security for sensitive documents.
✓
Weight Capacity per Drawer
Check the technical specs for load-bearing capacity; professional-grade drawers should support at least 20kg to 30kg of paper without sagging.
✓
Caster Quality for Mobility
For mobile cabinets, choose 360-degree swivel casters with integrated brakes to allow for easy repositioning and stable stationary use.
