FAQ
What type of tools can I store in the drawers?+
You can comfortably store a wide range of hand tools like screwdrivers, pliers, and wrenches within the drawers. However, consider using dividers or foam inserts to prevent damage from tools sliding around.
Is this cabinet suitable for storing documents?+
Absolutely! The metal construction is ideal for protecting important documents from dust and damage. Ensure you use appropriate dividers to maintain organisation and prevent bending.
What is the maximum weight capacity of each drawer?+
The individual drawers can typically hold up to 10kg, but we recommend distributing the weight evenly to avoid stressing the frame. Heavy items should be placed towards the bottom of the drawer.

Yes, this filing cabinet comes flat-packed and requires self-assembly. The instructions are included in the packaging, making the process straightforward – typically taking around 30 minutes to complete.

The metal frame has a powder-coated finish which provides excellent protection against rust and corrosion. This finish also helps to reduce noise when moving the drawers.
Are the drawer runners smooth sliding?+
Yes, the drawer runners are designed for smooth operation. However, regular cleaning with a damp cloth will ensure they continue to glide smoothly over time.
Can I lock the cabinet drawers?+
No, this model does not include locking mechanisms. If security is a concern, consider purchasing additional drawer locks separately – Amazon offers a selection of compatible options.
