What is the size difference between letter-size and legal-size vertical file cabinets?

Letter-size vertical file cabinets are approximately 15" wide internally and accommodate standard 8.5" x 11" hanging folders. Legal-size cabinets are approximately 18" wide to accommodate 8.5" x 14" legal documents. Legal-size cabinets cost more and use more floor space. If your office primarily handles letter-size documents, the narrower letter-size cabinet is the practical choice. OfficeFurniture2go.com carries both sizes — call 1-800-460-0858.
