If a file room needs order, a cabinet brings four legal or letter drawers beneath a dark cherry top. That movement costs time, but it also makes it harder for you to know where a current document is supposed to be. A double lateral file puts four drawers in the place where your team is already handling those records, with each side locking independently. You can give letter and legal files a fixed location without turning the filing area into another collection of loose piles. For an office manager or facility director, that means evaluating the cabinet against the work actually happening around it: how many drawers you need, who can access each side, and whether its overall footprint fits the room.
This lateral file cabinet measures 72-inch wide by 20-inch deep by 30-inch high overall. Its four drawers are for legal or letter filing, giving you one cabinet with space for both common document formats. Each side of the unit locks independently, so access to one side can be managed separately from access to the other. The construction uses all hardwood and veneer, while the radius edges are solid hardwood. The piece is stained to a dark cherry color and sealed through a multi-step process to a medium-sheen finish. Those details identify exactly what you are evaluating: four filing drawers, two independently locking sides, hardwood and veneer construction, solid hardwood radius edges, and a stated overall footprint.
Your planning starts with the room, the filing volume, and the way your staff handles access. The 72-inch overall width gives you a clear measurement for wall planning, while the 20-inch overall depth and 30-inch overall height let you compare the cabinet with the space already assigned to filing. Inside your process, the four-drawer layout separates legal and letter records by the categories your team uses every day. The independently locking sides also let you consider which employees, departments, or records should be assigned to each side. Dark cherry color and a medium-sheen finish establish the visible treatment, while the solid hardwood radius edges identify the edge construction. You are purchasing a lateral file cabinet that places filing capacity, separate side access, and documented dimensions in one piece for your office plan.
