FireKing Patriot Fireproof File Cabinet, 4-Drawer, 25" Deep for Letter or Legal Size Files (4P1825-C)

FireKing® Patriot Fireproof File Cabinet, 4-Drawer, Letter or Legal Size, 25" Deep

The FireKing Patriot 4P1825-C is a compact, four-drawer fireproof file cabinet for offices that need substantial protected filing capacity without the footprint of a full-depth cabinet. It provides UL Class 350 1-hour fire protection, 30-foot impact resistance, letter or legal filing, and a space-saving 25" depth.

Letter-size folders file front-to-back, while legal-size folders file side-to-side. The Patriot series combines essential FireKing protection with a straightforward, value-focused design. A standard cam lock, recessed drawer pulls, field-replaceable panels, and a durable powder-coated finish make the 4P1825-C practical for offices, records rooms, legal departments, healthcare facilities, financial institutions, schools, and government agencies.

Specifications

Why Choose the Patriot 4P1825-C?

• Certified fire protection: UL Class 350 protection helps keep interior temperatures suitable for paper records during a one-hour fire exposure.
• Impact resistance: The cabinet is tested to remain closed and continue protecting its contents after a 30-foot drop following fire exposure.
• High capacity, compact depth: Four drawers provide substantial protected storage while the 25-inch cabinet depth conserves floor and aisle space.
• Letter and legal filing: File letter-size folders front-to-back or legal-size folders side-to-side in every drawer.
• Controlled access: A standard keyed cam lock helps limit access to protected records.
• Value-focused design: Patriot provides core FireKing protection for buyers who do not need the additional lock and finish choices offered by the Classic series.

Common Applications

Use the 4P1825-C to protect active paper records that must remain accessible but would be difficult, expensive, or impossible to reconstruct after a fire.

• Legal, accounting, and financial records
• Medical and administrative files
• Human resources and personnel records
• Government and municipal departments
• Schools, colleges, and universities
• Business records rooms with limited aisle space

Choosing the Right Fireproof File Cabinet

2-Drawer vs. 4-Drawer

Choose a 2-drawer Patriot for a private office or lower protected-file volume. Choose this 4-drawer model when you need more protected capacity within the same general floor footprint.

25″ vs. 31″ Depth

The 25-inch Patriot is better suited to tighter layouts and limited aisle space. A 31-inch-deep model provides longer drawers and greater filing capacity.

Patriot vs. FireKing Classic

Choose Patriot for essential one-hour protection in a simpler, cost-conscious configuration. Choose FireKing Classic when you need additional lock options, more finish choices, or greater configuration flexibility.

At approximately 508 lbs., the 4P1825-C ships by freight and requires delivery planning. Confirm truck access, receiving hours, doorway and hallway clearances, turning space, elevator capacity, floor conditions, and the final placement location before shipment.
