metal mesh file tray

Most metal mesh file trays are made of steel; product listings commonly list the material as “steel.”

Sizes vary by style: heights in the listings range from about 2.31 inches up to 12 inches, widths are commonly around 10–14 inches, and depths vary more widely (about 3.75–13.25 inches). Specific dimensions depend on the tray style.

Common features include open-front or wide-side openings and arched fronts for quick retrieval, label holders for identification, mesh construction for visibility, stackable designs for organized storage, and cut-out or integrated handles for carrying.

Crate-style mesh file boxes are often built with side or top rails compatible with hanging file folders.

Common finishes shown in listings are black and silver; some items are also offered in white or brass/gold tones.
