File Cabinets

When piles of papers threaten to take over your home office, it's time for a file cabinet from Overstock.com. Finding the file cabinet that works best for you is the key to an organized home office. A filing cabinet can also be a striking piece of home office furniture to make your office look more attractive and more professional.

If style matters most, you should look at the file cabinet as furniture. A wood filing cabinet adds a natural touch; it's the perfect complement to wood office desks and leather office chairs. Also, according to Feng Shui, a metal file cabinet in the northwest corner of your home office will protect your wealth. Hey, it can't hurt.

If clutter reduction is your goal, lateral file cabinets hold more files, perfect when you need to keep a lot of paperwork. Some people find lateral file cabinets less comfortable to use because of the sideways orientation of the files, but everyone agrees this kind of filing cabinet is a big space saver. Vertical file cabinets hold files front to back and are usually taller and narrower than lateral file cabinets. Vertical file cabinets hold fewer files, but if you are only storing personal papers, it may be enough.

File cabinets add a bit more surface area to your home office, too. The top of the file cabinet may be a great place to put your fax machine or printer if there's no more room on your desk. You can also use the top of your file cabinet to hold a lamp or decorative vase.
