In the event that you move to a new office, the weight of this cabinet will be one less thing to worry about; rather than lifting, give it roll instead!

What is better than a file cabinet with one supply drawer? A metal one with two drawers of course. Metal filing cabinets are the most demanded in offices.

It is also important to note that when the drawers are slid open, the metal does not grate or produce a scratching sound like some other cabinets do. This is because the sliders have been lined with ball bearings instead of friction glides, giving the cabinet drawers some smoothness when opening and closing. The best part of this rolling cabinet is that the wheels come with five in number. One for balance and the others for rolling. However, upon shipping, you have to assemble the wheels yourself.
