Choosing the Right Lateral File
LAT4W44
Choose the 4-drawer, 44" model when maximum protected filing capacity in this width is the priority.
LAT3W44
The 3-drawer, 44" model provides the same wide lateral format with a lower cabinet profile.
LAT2W44
The 2-drawer, 44" model is suited to smaller record collections or locations requiring a lower cabinet.
Narrower widths
Consider a narrower Phoenix lateral file when wall space or the delivery path cannot accommodate a 44" cabinet.
