Product Information
Full details
The Talos Steel Open Tambour is designed for busy office environments that require a secure and space-efficient storage solution. It offers the primary benefit of a side-opening shutter door that eliminates the need for clearance space required by traditional hinged doors, making it ideal for narrow walkways; however, users should note that the steel construction requires assembly and careful handling to prevent surface scratches during initial setup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface to allow the tambour door tracks to function smoothly without binding. During assembly, prioritize securing the anti-tilt hardware to the floor or a wall if the unit is intended to hold heavy loads.
Compatibility: This unit is designed to work with standard suspension filing frames. Ensure your specific suspension folders match the internal dimensions of the unit before installation.
Care: Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that may degrade the powder-coated finish. Periodically clear debris from the bottom door tracks to ensure the shutter mechanism glides effortlessly.
