steel filing cabinet

Many models include casters or swivel wheels for mobility. Examples in listings include four 360° locking casters, five swivel casters (some with two locks), and other lockable swivel-caster setups to allow secure, stable placement.

Several cabinets feature central locking mechanisms (keys included) that secure multiple drawers. Many vertical designs also include anti-tip interlock systems that let only one drawer open at a time to reduce tipping risk.

Assembly varies by model: some arrive fully assembled (you only attach wheels), others require simple assembly such as attaching handles or casters and may note 'Adult Assembly Required,' and a few specify no assembly is needed.

Drawer hardware ranges from three-quarter glides to full-extension ball-bearing slides. Several units advertise ball-bearing full-extension slides and soft-closing mechanisms for quieter, smoother operation.

Common drawer counts include 2-, 3-, 4-, and 6-drawer units. Configurations often mix shallow and deep drawers (for example, two shallow + one deep) and may include adjustable hanging rails for letter or A4 filing.

Common finishes include scratch-resistant powder coating, electrostatic phosphorus-free epoxy spray coating, and painted steel surfaces.

Load specifications vary by model. Examples from listings include per-drawer limits around 22 lb with a top surface capacity of 33 lb and a total max of 77 lb for one mobile unit; another vertical cabinet lists up to 120 lb total, and a separate entry notes 66 lb total.
