5 Drawer File Cabinet

The 5 drawer file cabinet is a favorite of all kinds of businesses with lots of paper to store. You'll find both vertical:

5-drawer file cabinets are ideal if you've got a large volume of files. In our office, we actually use them as dividers, too: they're tall enough to form a wall between different rows of cubes.

For sensitive documents, such as HR paperwork or corporate financials, make sure you get lockable file cabinets. That's one reason buying used file cabinets can be risky: keys are often lost or missing and they're not necessarily as secure as they should be.

Instead of just heading to the local office superstore, consider talking to an office furniture dealer. Reputable dealers sell durable 5 drawer file cabinets that should last decades.

Lastly, it may seem unlikely, but file cabinets can be dangerous. Most new file cabinets include locking devices that prevent you from opening more than one drawer at a time, which can seriously unbalance the entire cabinet. However, a loaded top drawer, when extended, can be enough to tip the entire piece if the lower drawers are mostly empty. Use common sense and load from the ground up and you'll have no problems.
