Product Information

Full details

For professionals and home users seeking to organize documents, Rexel Suspension Files offer a durable and visually appealing way to manage A4 paperwork. Their key benefit lies in their color-coded system and sturdy polypropylene construction, ensuring files are easily identifiable and protected. A potential caveat is that the 30mm base capacity may be insufficient for very large document collections, requiring users to manage expectations for very thick files.

FAQs

What is the exact capacity of each suspension file?

Each file has a 30 mm base and can hold up to approximately 300 A4 sheets of 80 gsm paper.

How do I create a color-coded system?

Assign a different color to each category of document (e.g., blue for invoices, pink for receipts). Use the included blank inserts in the repositionable tabs to label each file clearly.

Can these files be used in any filing cabinet?

These A4 files with 350 mm runners are designed for standard filing systems. Measure your cabinet's internal width and rail spacing to confirm compatibility before purchase.

Are the tabs and inserts reusable?

Yes, the tabs are designed to be repositionable, and the inserts can be replaced or written on multiple times for changing file contents.

What material are the files made of?

The files are made from premium, semi-translucent polypropylene, featuring protective side walls and a wipe-clean satin finish.

How do I clean the suspension files?

Wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials.

What are the overall dimensions of a single file?

Each suspension file measures 310 mm in width and 240 mm in height (WxH).

Troubleshooting

Files do not hang properly on rails

Ensure the filing system rails are compatible with the 350 mm runner length. Check that the file is correctly seated on the rails and not obstructed.

Tabs are difficult to reposition

Gently slide the tab along the slot. If it feels stuck, ensure no documents are obstructing the movement. Avoid forcing the tab, as it could break.

Documents are slipping out of the file

Check that the polypropylene side walls are correctly positioned and providing tension. Ensure the file is not overfilled beyond its 30mm capacity, which can cause documents to spill.

File feels unstable or flimsy

Ensure the file is not overfilled. Utilize the unique linkable bar feature to connect adjacent files for increased stability within the drawer or cabinet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Vibrant and useful color-coding system for efficient organization.
  • Durable polypropylene material protects contents and ensures longevity.
  • Includes repositionable tabs and linkable bars for customizable filing.
  • Semi-translucent design adds visual appeal and allows for quick content identification.
  • Standard A4 size fits most filing solutions.

Cons

  • 30mm base capacity might be limiting for extremely large document volumes.
  • Runner length of 350mm may not fit all drawer depths without measurement.
  • Requires a compatible filing cabinet or organizer with rails.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack the suspension files. Note the assorted colours and included tabs.
  2. Insert the repositionable tabs into the designated slots on the file's front or top edge. Write your category or file name on the insert and place it into the tab.
  3. Open the file and place your A4 documents inside. Ensure documents are not creased or folded excessively to maintain the file's shape.
  4. Position the file's runners onto the rails of your filing cabinet, desk drawer chassis, or desktop organizer. Gently slide the file into place.
  5. If needed, link multiple files together using the integrated linking mechanism for added stability.

Compatibility:

  • Size: These files are A4 (310 mm x 240 mm) with a 350 mm runner length. They are designed to fit standard filing cabinets, desk drawer units, and organizers that accommodate A4 suspension files with rails of this approximate width.
  • Capacity: Each file has a 30 mm base, suitable for approximately 300 sheets of 80 gsm A4 paper. For very thick document sets exceeding this, consider larger capacity files or splitting the contents.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the files with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the polypropylene surface.
  • Storage: Store files upright in a dry environment. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which could degrade the material over time.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the runners and tabs for wear and tear. Ensure tabs remain securely in place.
