Constructed from alloyed carbon steel mesh, the Samstar Hanging File Organizer is built for durability and steady desktop use. The powder-coated finish provides a smooth surface and helps the unit resist oxidation over time. With a wire diameter of up to 1.0mm, the frame is designed to support a full load of approximately 25-30 lbs of letter-sized documents without the floor bowing significantly.
The mesh design is particularly helpful for long-term storage as it allows for constant airflow, which helps prevent moisture from accumulating among your papers. Weighing only 2.5 lbs, it is easy to reposition on a desk or shelf. For the best stability, specifications indicate it should be used on a flat, non-carpeted surface to ensure the weight is distributed evenly across the perimeter weld points.
Features include a unitized frame that provides better lateral stability than many folding alternatives. Before loading your folders, a quick check of the top rails can ensure the hanging hooks will glide smoothly. This "crate" style design is optimized for static compression, making it a reliable choice for a permanent filing station in a home office.
If you prefer a softer look that blends with home decor, the Oterri Linen File Box offers a fabric-based alternative with a lid.
