Full details
The Exacompta The Box 5-Drawer Filing Cabinet is an ideal storage solution for office professionals and students seeking a compact, reliable way to organize A4 documents.

One caveat to note is that the 38mm drawer height is specifically designed for standard documents and light stationery, making it unsuitable for bulkier items or thick binders.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This drawer unit comes fully assembled, allowing you to place it directly on your desk or workstation surface immediately. No tools are required for setup. Regarding compatibility, the unit is sized specifically for A4 and smaller document formats; please ensure your storage needs do not exceed these dimensions. To maintain the cabinet, wipe it down occasionally with a soft, dry, or slightly damp microfiber cloth to clear dust from the exterior. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the plastic surface or cloud the translucency of the drawers. Periodically check that no paper scraps have lodged behind the drawer runners to ensure the smooth-action mechanism continues to function optimally.
