Flat File Cabinets — Expert Answer
What types of drawer pulls or handles are standard on flat file cabinets?
Most commercial flat file cabinets come with recessed or bar-style drawer pulls. Recessed pulls are integrated into the drawer front face — there's no protruding hardware that can snag clothing or create aisle hazards. Bar pulls are long horizontal metal bars across the full drawer width, making them easy to grip even when wearing gloves or when hands are full. Some flat file cabinets have a combination of a recessed grip area plus a small bar. The pull style is a mostly aesthetic choice, though a full-width bar pull is the most ergonomic for opening heavy, fully loaded drawers. Confirm the pull style suits your aesthetic if the flat file will be visible in a client-facing studio space. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
