Lateral File Cabinets — Expert Answer
How do I set up a central records room using lateral file cabinets?
Planning a central records room starts with calculating your total linear filing inches — count your existing files and project 1–2 years of growth. A 36" wide 4-drawer lateral file cabinet holds approximately 200–250 hanging file folders (about 70–90 linear filing inches per cabinet). Arrange cabinets in rows with 42" aisles between rows for comfortable access, and place the most frequently accessed cabinets closest to the room entrance.
