Phoenix LAT4W44 Fireproof Lateral File Cabinet, 4 Drawers, 44" Wide, 1-Hour Fire Rated
Model LAT4W44 is a 4-drawer Phoenix lateral file cabinet built to protect important paper documents from fire, impact, and extreme heat. It also provides 30-minute protection for certain digital media, locks all drawers securely, and includes free full service delivery.
The Phoenix LAT4W44 lateral file cabinet is built for businesses that need dependable fire protection, high-capacity filing, and strong drawer organization in a wide-format design. Ideal for law firms, medical facilities, administrative departments, and records-intensive offices, this 44" wide model provides large-capacity lateral storage while helping protect important paper records and select digital media.
Lateral cabinets provide broad filing access while requiring less pull-out space than many traditional file systems. The LAT4W44 supports legal and letter filing using hanging folders and cross bars, while insulation between each drawer helps make every drawer a separate insulated container. Backed by Phoenix fire testing, impact resistance, proprietary insulation, and a steel inner jacket design, this cabinet is built to protect active records in real-world office environments.

Why Choose a Fireproof File Cabinet?
Many important business records still exist only on paper. Legal files, signed contracts, patient charts, financial documents, HR records, and government paperwork can be permanently lost in minutes during a building fire.
A certified fireproof file cabinet protects those records during catastrophic events. Phoenix insulated files are engineered to maintain safe internal temperatures long enough to help preserve paper documents when standard metal file cabinets offer little to no thermal protection.
For organizations responsible for protecting sensitive records while keeping them organized and easy to access, a professionally rated lateral fireproof cabinet is a practical long-term investment.
