This rolling file pedestal combines an industrial-style aesthetic with black plates to create a visually appealing addition to spaces such as bedrooms, home offices, or living rooms. It’s designed for individuals seeking a practical way to manage paperwork, including A4 documents and hanging files.

This filing cabinet features three drawers providing ample storage space, measuring 40 x 40 x 57.5 cm. The construction utilises engineered wood with metal components – the frame is iron, while the handles are metal – ensuring both durability and stability. The bottom drawer includes removable file hangers suitable for Letter Size and A4 documents, and the upper two drawers can accommodate pens and smaller files.

Movement is facilitated by five castor wheels, with two offering 360-degree rotation and locking functionality to secure the cabinet under a desk. A central caster prevents the lower drawer from tipping when fully extended. Assembly is designed to be straightforward, utilising detailed instructions and clearly numbered parts.

Consider that the maximum weight capacity is 30 kilograms. Note that the wheels may require locking on uneven flooring for optimal stability. This filing pedestal offers a rustic brown and black finish that complements various home decor styles.
