Description
The FireKing Classic four-drawer lateral cabinet combines daily file access with tested fire protection for paper records. Its broad drawers support letter and legal filing, making it useful for contracts, office records and documents that need an organized physical home. The black finish keeps the substantial cabinet visually coordinated with office furniture.
Steel construction surrounds gypsum insulation reinforced with a steel-wire lattice. Insulation between drawers separates the storage compartments, and a UL-listed high-security key lock controls access. The cabinet's one-hour fire classification describes performance under a defined test; it is not a promise that documents will survive every possible fire.
Features
- Four lateral file drawers: organize letter or legal folders across wide, accessible storage compartments.
- UL Class 350 rating: one-hour classified fire protection for paper records.
- Insulated drawer separation: additional insulation sits between the drawers.
- High-security key lock: a UL-listed Medeco lock provides keyed access control.
- Reinforced insulation: gypsum insulation is supported by a steel-wire lattice within the cabinet.
- Finished steel cabinet: a durable black finish and heavy-duty drawer suspensions suit regular office filing.

| Drawer use | Close drawers fully when they are not in use and follow the operating instructions. |
Plan for a heavy assembled cabinet
Use the 37.5 × 22.125-inch footprint as the starting point, then add space for opening drawers and standing in front of them. With an approximate shipping weight of 907 lb, this cabinet requires careful delivery planning as well as space for daily filing. Check the route, lift or stair access and the suitability of the installation floor.
- Confirm delivery access and the services included in the order.
- Measure door openings and turns along the complete route.
- Plan final placement before loading files; moving a loaded cabinet is more difficult.

Common questions
Is this exactly 38 inches wide?
38 inches is the nominal size category. The manufacturer-listed outside width is 37.5 inches.
Does Class 350 mean it withstands only a 350°F fire?
No. The class refers to the internal temperature limit during the specified fire test, rather than the temperature of the surrounding fire.
Does it take legal-size documents?
Yes. The drawer arrangement is specified for both letter and legal filing.
Can it be moved like an ordinary empty file cabinet?
Its approximate 907 lb shipping weight requires suitable handling equipment and route planning. Arrange placement with a provider equipped for this weight.
