How do I clean and maintain a fireproof filing cabinet?

Fireproof filing cabinet maintenance: (1) Wipe exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild cleaner — avoid abrasive cleaners that scratch the paint finish. (2) Keep the lock cylinder clean — apply a small amount of graphite powder (not oil-based lubricant) if the lock becomes stiff. (3) Lubricate drawer slides annually with a dry lubricant (PTFE/Teflon spray) to keep drawers operating smoothly under heavy load. (4) Check leveling feet annually and readjust if the cabinet has shifted. (5) Inspect the door seal around each drawer annually — any gaps in the seal reduce fire protection. (6) Keep the cabinet dry — moisture intrusion can damage the insulating material. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960 for product-specific maintenance guidance.
