mesh hanging file box

Most mesh hanging file boxes are metal—commonly steel or iron.

Capacity varies by type. Single wall pockets can hold roughly 400 pages, desktop hanging frames often accommodate up to about 75 file folders, and multi-pocket wall racks list multiple pockets with weight ratings (for example, around 22 pounds).

Common finishes include black and silver metal, and some models are available in white.

Many crate and desktop designs have cut-out handles or are lightweight, allowing you to carry files between rooms or to meetings.

Several models list compatibility with hanging file folders; crate-style boxes often accept hanging folders and some are sized to fit standard 13×13 cube shelving.

Common styles include wall-mounted single-pocket holders, multi-pocket wall racks, crate-style file boxes with rails for hanging folders, desktop hanging-frame boxes, and multi-compartment hanging sorters.
