Proven fire performance with 2 hour protection for documents. In addition to the manufactures own stringent fire testing. Fire file cabinets are independently tested to NT 017 5120 paper standard for 2 hour fire protection.

• Furnace exposure to over 1000°c
• Slow cooling to simulate being buried in hot rubble.
• A 9.1m drop test duplicates conditions of a floor collapsing in a fire, (a test that the Fire File passes due to the high integral strength of its design). At no stage during the test did the internal temperature of the cabinet exceed the safe storage temperature for paper: 170°c.

Construction for the purpose

Available in two, three or four drawer sizes, three robust filing cabinets contain a minimum of 38mm of fire proofing all round, with intumescent seals around drawer to close up tolerances in the event of fire. Fire resistant bulkheads between each drawer ensure that they are individually insulated. A shock absorbing plinth provides maximum impact absorption in the case of floor collapse.

Heavy duty drawer slides are fully ‘life tested’ and a day catch fitted to each drawer ensures that they stay shut even if the cabinet is unlocked during a fire. Drawers are designed to ensure smooth operation.

Protection Built-in

Each drawer is individually protected from fire. Even if one of the drawers is accidentally left open, the other closed drawers are still protected by the built in, fire resistant partitions.

The drawers are fitted with sturdy suspension files adjustable to accommodate foolscap or A4 filing wallets. Comes with unique locking action.

Quality Locking

The standard version of the cabinet has a Chubb Ava key lock, fitted to the top drawer for securing all the drawers. Key lock as standard. The Fire File is available in a choice of two, three or four drawer sizes.
