Storage & Filing — Expert Answer
Should an open office use lateral or vertical filing cabinets?
Open offices typically benefit from lateral filing cabinets because their lower profile (usually 30"–36" tall) allows visual openness across the floor, and the top surface can be used as a work surface or for small appliances. Vertical cabinets project upward in the workspace but have a smaller footprint. If floor space is limited, vertical cabinets use less floor area per drawer.
