Can a flat-file cabinet top be used as a work surface?

Yes — the top cap of a flat-file cabinet on a leg base is frequently used as a large-format drawing review or layout surface. The typical surface is 30"–36" above the floor, which is a comfortable counter-height work zone for standing review. Ensure the top cap is level and secure. Some configurations include a drafting board or glass top overlay for a higher-quality review surface.
