Flat-File Cabinets — Expert Answer
Are the bottom drawers of a flat-file cabinet easy to access?
On floor-standing flat-file units, the bottom drawer may require kneeling or bending to access, which makes it less suitable for frequently accessed documents. Base-height units address this by raising the cabinet to counter height — adding 24"–29" to the bottom drawer position. Alternatively, place the least frequently accessed documents in bottom drawers and most-used materials at eye level.
