Letter-Size File Shelving

Our letter-size file shelving is designed to store letter-size end tab file folders. These adjustable steel shelving units accommodate file boxes, books, notebooks, and supplies. The letter shelves are available in single-sided wall units and double-sided freestanding units.

Shelving units are sold as "starters" and "adders" or "add-on" units. "Adder" units are designed to connect to "starter" units to reduce costs.

The first unit of a shelving row needs to be a "starter" unit (adder or add-on units connect to the starter unit). "Adder" units will not stand alone and must be connected to a "starter" unit.

If you want complete flexibility to move units around in the future, we recommend purchasing all "starter" units.

• Vertical side panels (uprights) are closed metal panels made of heavy-duty 18-gauge steel.
• Shelves are adjustable vertically on 1.5" increments. Additional shelves are available on request.
• Shelves are supported with two heavy-duty shelf supports. Shelf reinforcements are provided depending on the size of the shelf.
• Single-sided units have backstops on each storage level to connect vertical support dividers. Double-sided units have a centerstop in the middle of the shelf to connect support dividers and keep materials from pushing through to the other side.
• Each shelf will hold at least 250 lbs with a total shelving unit weight capacity of 1,500 lbs. Weight capacities are based on evenly distributed, non-impact loads.
• Single-sided units have one 2.75" high bottom kickplate (base). Double-sided units have two 2.75" high bottom kickplates (bases). These prevent objects from rolling under the unit.

Starter and Adder Units

• The first unit of a shelving row needs to be a "starter unit" (adder units connect to starter units). An adder unit will not stand alone and must connect to a starter unit.
• Starter units come with two closed side panels (uprights), and adder units come with open-type uprights.
• Shelves connect to one side of the starter unit's uprights (shelves connect to both sides of the adder unit's uprights).
• If you want complete flexibility to move units around in the future, you can purchase all starter units.
• Single-sided units are designed to stand against a wall.
• Double-sided units are designed to stand in the middle of a room.
