Five-Drawer Lateral File Charcoal
The HON 685LS 600 Series is a five-drawer lateral file finished in Charcoal steel. It provides high-capacity document storage for offices that need secure, organised filing in a single unit. The top drawer functions as a roll-out posting shelf for active work.
Mechanical interlock prevents tipping
A mechanical interlock allows only one drawer to open at a time, inhibiting tip-over risk on uneven floors. Four adjustable leveling glides compensate for surface irregularities. The lock secures both sides of every drawer with an interchangeable core.
Letter and legal side-to-side capacity
Included adjustable hangrails support letter-size or legal-size folders filed side-to-side in each drawer. Double-walled base construction and a counterweight, where applicable, meet ANSI/BIFMA stability requirements. The 67.00" height, 36.00" width and 19.25" depth define the footprint.

Questions about this item
How much floor space does the 67.00" tall cabinet actually take up?
The unit measures 36.00" wide by 19.25" deep, so it needs roughly nine square feet of floor area plus clearance for drawer extension.
What does the ANSI/BIFMA stability requirement mean for daily use?
A factory-installed counterweight and a mechanical interlock that permits only one drawer open at a time keep the cabinet from tipping when fully loaded drawers are extended.
Will the 19.25" depth fit standard letter and legal folders side-to-side?
Yes — adjustable hangrails in each drawer are designed for both letter- and legal-size folders in a side-to-side orientation.
