Fireproof Cabinets — Expert Answer

How heavy is a fireproof filing cabinet?

Fireproof filing cabinets are significantly heavier than standard steel cabinets due to their insulating double-wall construction. A 2-drawer letter-size fireproof cabinet typically weighs 150–250 lbs. A 4-drawer vertical fireproof cabinet weighs 300–500 lbs. A 4-drawer lateral fireproof cabinet can weigh 400–600 lbs. This weight has floor-loading implications — confirm that your floor can support the fully-loaded cabinet weight before ordering.
