Support hanging folders without separate hanging-folder frames.
Follower blocks
One included follower block per drawer helps keep files upright and organized.

Each drawer measures 10-3/4" H × 31-15/16" W × 15-1/8" D.
Common uses include legal files, patient records, HR files, contracts, accounting records, deeds, titles, business documents, and other original paper records that are difficult to replace.

- Steel reinforcement: Insulation is reinforced with a 1" × 2" lattice of 14-gauge galvanized welded steel wire.

- Powder-coated finish: applied to all sides, including the bottom, and designed to resist scratches and stains.
- Field-replaceable panels: steel panels and drawer heads can be replaced if exterior damage occurs.
- Surface-mounted drawer pulls: allow more insulating material inside the drawer heads.
