Lateral file cabinets are much wider than vertical file cabinets, allowing files to be stored front to back or side to side in the drawers. They are also not as deep as vertical file cabinets, allowing them to serve as wall partitions or credenzas.
Lateral file cabinets are more flexible in terms of filing. They can usually hold legal and letter-sized files in the same drawer, while vertical file designs must choose one or the other. Lateral file cabinet drawers are also bigger, holding about one-third more files than a standard vertical unit, with cabinets available in widths from 36 to 42 inches.
Due to their size, safety features are a priority when choosing a lateral file cabinet. Look for a locking mechanism to keep your lateral file cabinet from tipping over when multiple drawers are pulled out. Our high quality units use counterweighted drawers and internal locking devices that allow only one drawer to open at a time.
