Three-Drawer Lateral File for Secure Office Storage
The HON 893LQ 800 Series provides three full-extension drawers in a 42-inch wide cabinet designed for high-density document storage. Light gray baked enamel over phosphate pretreatment resists rust and daily wear. Dual side locks and a mechanical interlock secure both drawer faces while allowing only one drawer open at a time.
Reinforced Case with Full-Width Handles
Reinforced case construction keeps drawer alignment true under heavy loads. Telescoping ball-bearing suspension delivers smooth, quiet operation across the full travel. Designer-style handles integrate magnetic label holders for quick identification. Four adjustable leveling guides compensate for uneven floors without tools.
Upgrade from Narrow Vertical Files
This lateral file replaces tall vertical cabinets when floor space allows wider, shallower access to letter and legal folders side-to-side. The jump is worth it when teams need simultaneous security on both drawer sides and one-drawer-at-a-time safety. Buyers needing fire-rated construction or more than three drawers should consider other solutions.
