Lateral Filing Cabinet Vs Traditional Filing Cabinet


 

There are few items of furniture in the modern office that are quite as iconic as the filing cabinet. They are the supreme union of function and form, holding a great deal of material while taking up a very small amount of floor space. But what many people don't realize is that there are many options besides the traditional filing cabinet. A Lateral Filing Cabinet is a shorter and wider version of the traditional filing cabinet and has many advantages over it's skinnier relative. Let's look at the pros and cons of these two kinds of filing cabinets.

One of the immediate advantages of lateral Filing Cabinets is that they allow some storage on top. In fact, a good sized Lateral Filing Cabinet will make a great expansion for your desktop without the pretension of just buying a second desk. On a traditional filing cabinet, what can you store up there? Not much more than a shoe box of old floppy disks. A second monitor could also fit easily, a wide screen LCD TV maybe? Get creative! You could even have a few plants to make it more "green" and look pretty at the same time. And at the end of the day, if you need to maximize your storage space, many lateral filing cabinets are modular, which means that you can simply get another and stack another right on top of your old one.

One problem that some people run into with traditional filing cabinets is that it's hard to search for the right file and not spend half your time opening and closing the drawers. With a good Lateral Filing Cabinet, you have multiple racks side by side so you can just open them and have more files at your finger tips. Your hands and wrists get enough wear and tear every day just working in an office and just this small improvement makes a surprising difference.

A slight change in your office decor, ergonomic efficiency, or just a general sense of rebellion, whatever your reason, a Lateral Filing Cabinet may be just what you need to get yourself and your office out of a rut. Consider making the switch today!
