How does a flat-file cabinet's storage capacity compare to a standard filing cabinet?

Flat-file cabinets store fewer total documents by count but handle much larger format sheets that standard cabinets cannot. A standard 4-drawer letter cabinet holds 2,000+ letter-size documents. A 10-drawer flat-file cabinet holds perhaps 500–1,000 large-format sheets. The comparison is not linear — flat files store content that simply cannot go anywhere else. If you have both standard and large-format documents, you need both types of storage. OfficeFurniture2go.com — call 1-800-460-0858.
