Hanging Storage

It Pays to Explore Your Options

If you are an architect, an engineer, or an artist (or even just a student of any of these), chances are, you have an abundant supply of oversized sheets that you have no place to put. Since you are dealing with a lot of blue prints, drawings, maps and canvass, it is not surprising to find yourself at a loss on where to keep them. The real problem begins when you notice that a lot of your sheets are crumpled, have gotten wet, is suffering from stains and dust and it frustrates you that you were not able to safeguard them better.

Flat file storage is now your major concern. What is the best flat file storage for you?

Here are some storage systems that you can have at home.

* Steel flat file storage can be your best friend in keeping your large documents safe. Flat file cabinets come in different sizes and can be bought online. You can choose from those that are shipped fully assembled or not. You can also choose from different sizes (sheets come in different specifications), number of drawers (from five to ten), and the number of sheets that it can hold (three to about a thousand pieces). Steel flat file cabinets can give the maximum protection to your documents.

* There are also wooden flat file cabinets. These come in different sizes too like the steel varieties. However, since they are wooden, they are sometimes heavier and harder to maintain than the steel flat file cabinets. Both of these types of cabinets have price tags ranging from $500 -$1800.

* You can also choose to have a mobile stand for your filing problem. Mobile stands let you hang your blueprints in a wheeled container that you can pull along anywhere you want. Although the protection is not as great as the flat file cabinets, mobile stands are very portable and do not take up too much space.

* Vertical filing storage, usually made of hard plastic also is a good way to store your sheets without the danger of crumpling them or exposing them to dust and moisture.

* Hanging file centers on the other hand works like the mobile stands except this one is mounted. A hanging file center lets you clip your most recent assignments and projects on the wall without crumpling the edges. Hanging clamps does the same thing as the hanging centers but with more storage capacity.

* If it is all right with you to have your flat files stored in a roll, you may opt for the wire bin files storage, or the steel and corrugated roll files storage. Wire bin files, just like its name suggests, has a system of wires that holds rolled up documents. It also is portable, light and has wheels to let you cart it around. Steel and corrugated roll files are heavier, like the flat file cabinets. These need to stay in one place. However, instead of drawers, this type of storage has pigeonholes inside where you can place your rolled-up sheets. Steel and corrugated roll files may cost from $100 - $300.

* Another system that might work for you, and is definitely cheaper, is stack trays. These do not cost more than $150. Stack trays also come in different sizes to accommodate various over sized documents. They are light and easy on the eye. However, the storage is open and you will need to be very careful to place them where there is no danger of spilling liquids on your precious works.
