Before you buy

A full foolscap box weighs 12 to 16 kg, which is why shelf ratings and floor loading matter in an archive room and why single wall boxes fail when they are stacked five high. Personal data has to be held securely under UK data protection law, and a lockable cabinet is the usual control for paper records. It works with a retention schedule and secure destruction at the end of it. A locked cabinet with no retention schedule behind it is a filing problem rather than a compliance one. Every box here carries a label field for a retention date, because the point of an archive is being able to destroy things on time as well as find them.

Which option to buy

Pack of Ten is ten at pack pricing. Pack of Twenty Five is twenty five at a lower price each. We sell storage that has to hold real weight and sometimes has to satisfy a regulator. Every listing states the external size, the tested capacity, the lock and whether it carries an independently certified fire rating, because in this trade the word fireproof gets used for products that have never been tested.
