What tools do I need to assemble or install a lateral file cabinet?

Lateral file cabinets from our commercial lines at OfficeFurniture2go.com arrive in a high degree of assembly — most require only leveling and optional anchoring rather than full assembly. For installation, you'll need a standard level (2-foot recommended) and an adjustable wrench for the leveling glides. For wall anchoring — which we strongly recommend for any 4- or 5-drawer unit — add a stud finder, drill, and wall anchor hardware. Stacking hardware for multi-unit vertical stacks is typically included. If you're installing a row of cabinets as a filing run, a chalk line helps align the row accurately before final leveling. Our team can advise on anchoring methods for any wall type. Call 1-800-460-0858.
