FILING CABINETS

Adding a filing cabinet to your home office space is like a cheat code that makes everything easier. From keeping your most important paperwork organized to storing some of your most valuable things, a filing cabinet can play a pivotal role in how you view life in your office. Luckily, we carry tons of affordable filing cabinets here at City Furniture. From a wood file cabinet that complements your office furniture to a metal filing cabinet that stands out effortlessly, you’ll have excellent options here.

Filing Cabinet Size

Much like when you're shopping for an office desk, the size of the filing cabinet you choose is essential. Not only do you want to ensure that the one you buy fits where you want it to in your office, but the last thing you want is a lot of wasted storage space. If you have your eyes set on a handsome 4 drawer filing cabinet, do some research to ensure it's what you need. Yes, this cabinet will give you more filing options than a smaller one but if you only have a few documents to file away, then a 2 drawer filing cabinet may be ideal. A 3 drawer filing cabinet often provides the perfect medium for a lot of people. Think clearly about your organizational needs before making a decision.

Vertical or Horizontal

After you decide how many drawers you need, it's essential that you settle on what's known as the file cabinet orientation. This is a furniture industry way of asking, do you want a vertical file cabinet or a horizontal one? If you're limited on space in your office, a vertical file cabinet may be the way to go. A tall file cabinet gives you a modern look and takes up less space in the process. However, if you plan to slide your filing cabinet under a desk or you have lots of files to organize, a lateral filing cabinet may be the way to go. Just be smart about your needs and your space and you'll make the right decision.

As you search our collection of filing cabinets, remember to pay attention to additional features that you may need. If you have lots of sensitive documents, you should get a filing cabinet with a lock to keep it safe at all times. Or maybe your home office is next to your child's room and you don't want to disturb their  nap time when you're working at night. In this case, soft closing drawers are a necessity. A fireproof file cabinet is another popular feature that people seek. With so many options and features here at City Furniture, we'll see to it that you get exactly what you want as you continue to build out your office space.
