Resistance to fire Filing cabinets store
important documents that once damage can create a
lot of problem in the office. Always consider
investing in one or more units that are fire
resistant. They are manufactured and designed to
keep the temperature inside sufficiently low, to
protect the stored items when the outside
temperature rises. Furniture makers are putting
more efforts these days, to churn out office
furniture that is designed to keep the
temperature inside sufficiently low for at least
an hour, even when the outside temperature goes
beyond 900 degrees Celsius. This kind of
protection is the need of the hour and perfectly
reliable. Make sure to check on this feature as
well when you buy filing cabinets.
