Troubleshooting
Files do not slide smoothly on rails.
Check that the rails are clean and free of debris. Ensure the file's nylon-coated bars are properly seated on the rails and not bent. Verify that the file is not overstuffed, which can cause friction.
Tabs or inserts fall off.
Ensure the tab is securely clipped onto the file's edge. If using printable inserts, confirm they are correctly aligned and seated within the tab holder. Use repositionable tabs carefully to avoid tearing.
Files do not fit correctly in the cabinet.
Measure the distance between the suspension rails in your cabinet. These files are designed for rails approximately 330mm apart. If your rails are significantly different, these files may not be compatible.
Card material appears worn or damaged.
Avoid excessive force when filing or retrieving documents. Protect files from moisture and physical damage. If minor wear occurs, consider using a protective sleeve for frequently accessed files.
