How much weight can a vertical file cabinet hold?

Commercial vertical file cabinet drawers are rated at 60–100 lbs of hanging file load per drawer. A 4-drawer cabinet fully loaded can hold 240–400 lbs of documents. The anti-tip mechanism (which prevents more than one drawer from opening simultaneously) is critical for stability at full load. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, all our file cabinets include anti-tip mechanisms — call 1-800-460-0858 for load rating documentation.
