The two drawer lateral file cabinet is a very popular storage method in offices and companies worldwide. A lateral file cabinet is preferred to stacking many vertical file cabinets. In a lateral filing cabinet, drawers open much like they do in a dresser. The lateral file is essentially a utility cabinet divided up into small height drawers. When lateral file cabinets are placed side to side, the wide drawers of the lateral filing cabinet make it easier to find files faster. You simply make one, short pull of a drawer to access all of your files in one view. In a vertical file cabinet, you would have to pull the drawers out all the way to search for paperwork filed towards the back of the unit. Because lateral file cabinets allow one to quickly browse through many files, they are popular in offices or other places of work where the space is limited or many employees are working closely together. In addition, a lateral file cabinet can have more than 2 drawers and cabinets can be positioned side-by-side as necessary. Lateral file cabinets are often ideal in hospitals, doctor's offices, schools, law enforcement agencies and corporate design facilities needed to store many drawings as backups to CAD files. Mid City Office Products carries tens of lateral filing cabinets from well known brands like Alera, Bush®, HON®, DMi®, and Mayline®. Finishes include black, gray, putty, parchment, and mahogany. Some units are combination lateral files with shelf storage on top. Many units feature interlocking drawers so only one drawer can be opened at a time. Most units feature a hanging file slide system.
