How much weight can a vertical file cabinet drawer handle?

Commercial vertical file cabinet drawers are typically rated for 60–100 lbs of hanging file load per drawer. A fully loaded 4-drawer cabinet can weigh 300–400 lbs total, which is why they should be anchored and moved empty. Stay within drawer weight ratings — overloading strains the slides and can cause drawers to sag or derail. Browse options at FindOfficeFurniture.com or call 888-719-4960 to talk through your setup.
