Free-Standing Example
You need to store letter-size files totaling 1950 linear inches.
The first option is Lateral Filing Cabinets and the second option is the Spacefile solution.
Option #1: 1950 filing inches would fit into fifteen (36” x 18”) 4-high Lateral Filing Cabinets requiring 195 square feet of floor space.
Option#2: 1950 filing inches would fit into eight (36” x 16”) 7-high ThinLine Filing Sections requiring 68 square feet of floor space.
The Spacefile Solution saves you 127 (195-68) square feet of floor space!
Spacefile’s Mobile System Solutions
For the same example of 1950 filing inches, Spacefile’s mobile systems use the following floor space:
• ThinLine Tri-File: 48 square ft. (75% less space than lateral files)
• ThinLine Mini Storage Aisle (MSA): 34 square ft. (83% less space than lateral files)
In fact, you could fit a ThinLine Free Standing, Tri-File and MSA, each storing 1950 filing inches, in the same space required for the fifteen 4-high lateral filing cabinets!
• Spacefile’s ThinLine Mechanical Assist Mobile (SDS) saves you even more space!
