How do I calculate how much storage cabinet capacity my office needs?

Start with an inventory of what needs to be stored: count current binders (standard binder is 2"–3" wide), reams of paper (11" tall, 2" wide on a shelf), supply boxes, and miscellaneous equipment. Calculate linear shelf inches needed. A standard 36" wide × 72" tall × 18" deep storage cabinet with 6 adjustable shelves provides approximately 216 linear inches (18 linear feet) of shelf space. Most office planning models recommend 1–1.5 linear feet of storage per workstation as a starting point; adjust based on your paper-intensity and supply storage requirements.
