Wooden Document Cabinets -- How You Can Pick The Best 1
File cabinets come in many sizes, styles and levels of quality. Within addition in order to offering a method to arrange as well as entry your paperwork, document cabinets can also turn out to be flexible as well as helpful pieces of furniture you can use within nearly every room of your home or even office.
You can buy either metal or wood cabinets file. Wood, specifically solid oak, is the most attractive and durable material to look for. It will last a very long time and be an attractive addition to your home or office.
The many styles of solid wood file cabinets include Mission, Contemporary, and Traditional and come in several standard sizes, which include:
- Letter sized file cabinets, which generally hold only 8.5" x 11" paper, but can also be used for 8.5" x 11" legal size files.
- Legal size file cabinets, which generally hold both 8.5" x 14" and 8.5" x 11" paper.
- Lateral file cabinets, which come with 2 or 3 drawers and generally hold 8.5 x 11" and 8.5" x 14" paper.
- Personal file cabinets that are generally smaller and hold only 8.5 x 11" letter files
The letter or legal size file cabinet can be used the alternate way by moving the metal brackets.
Wood file cabinets are available with 2, 3, 4 or even 5 drawers. When deciding which one would work best for you, consider not only the amount of file storage needed, but also the other uses you have for the file cabinet as a piece of furniture. It could be used as an end table, a storage chest, a credenza, a DVD or video tape cabinet, a nightstand, or a place to keep your printer, fax machine, copier, or coffee machine.
If you need to place a few of the over items desk height, a 2-drawer cabinet allows you the thirty" higher system. If you line several up in a row you can have quite a large surface. A lateral file also offers you this advantage without a seam in the middle. For this purpose, look for file cabinets with flush sides so there won't be any gaps between the cabinets.
A 3-drawer file cabinet, which stands about 43" high, offers more storage per square foot of floor space and you can still put plants or other light items on top. A 4-drawer file cabinet, which is about 55" tall, offers a tremendous amount of storage, as does an even taller, but rare, 5-drawer file cabinet. We don't recommend putting anything other than a very light item on top.
SAFETY FIRST!
Any piece of furniture that is holding a lot of weight can be dangerous. An important safety issue with file cabinets is the danger of tipping and crushing. Large and heavy file drawers can cause the file to tip forward. Therefore, several things can be done to minimize this danger.
- Do not fill the file on the top drawer while leaving lower drawers empty.
- As mentioned above, do not open more than one drawer at a time.
- Attach file cabinets to the wall to prevent tipping.
- Where possible, put your heaviest items in bottom drawer (to act as an anchor).
- Do not put attractive nuisances like TV's and games on top of tip prone furniture unless it is properly tethered. Children may climb up to retrieve the remote or turn on the TV with horrible consequences.
CHOOSE A HIGH-QUALITY WOOD FILE CABINET
The lowest quality wood file cabinets are generally made for self-assembly by the customer. This is usually more difficult than you expect and utilizes "cam" assembly hardware. You'll also want to stay away from file cabinets that are made of particleboard. Even although the label might say it's made of wooden, don't be fooled simply because that explanation might still be talking about particleboard, therefore beware. According to the Furniture Manufacturers Association, solid wood includes particleboard. What you really want to look for is SOLID wood-either solid oak, pine, or cherry.
Another thing to keep in mind is that in order to hold a lot of weight a file cabinet should have glue screws and clamps--not cam locks in particleboard.
Next, know the difference between printed grain, genuine wood veneer, and solid wood without particleboard. The easiest way to tell if a piece of furniture is made of solid wood is to look at how the grain is running. If the end grain runs the wrong direction (perpendicular to the other grain), it is most likely veneer. I'm not saying veneer doesn't have its place if properly done, however, you should not be misled and be able to purchase what you are looking for/know what you're looking at.
