Filing Cabinets
POPIA compliance, SARS record-keeping, HR files, contracts — South African businesses still run on paper that has to be stored securely for years. A proper filing cabinet is cheap insurance: lockable drawers keep confidential records confidential, steel construction survives decades of daily use, and full-extension drawers mean the file at the back is as reachable as the one in front.
We stock the workhorses: 2 and 4-drawer steel filing cabinets in multiple colours, wooden filing pedestals that tuck under desks, mobile pedestals on castors for flexible offices, and key cabinets for managing fleets and premises. The 2nd Hand Gallery usually holds used steel filers at bargain prices — steel cabinets are nearly impossible to wear out, which makes used ones exceptional value. Bulk orders for registries and records rooms are quoted with volume pricing and delivered across the North West.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I buy a steel or wooden filing cabinet?
Steel for security, longevity and heavy daily use — it's what registries and records rooms run on. Wood for front offices where the cabinet is visible and needs to match the desks. Many offices sensibly use both.
Are used steel filing cabinets worth buying?
They're one of the best value purchases in office furniture. Steel filers barely wear — check the locks and drawer runners work (we do before selling) and a used cabinet gives decades more service at half the price or less.
Do filing cabinets come with keys?
All our lockable cabinets are sold with working keys — new units with their factory keys, second-hand units with tested locks. Read our filing cabinet buying guide if you're unsure which size and configuration you need.
