FAQs
What size documents can this file hold?
This file is designed to hold A4 sized documents.
How many sheets can each compartment hold?
While the entire file can hold up to 1000 sheets, the capacity per compartment will vary depending on how many compartments are used and how full they are. It's best to distribute documents evenly.
Is the handle sturdy enough for heavy loads?
The handle is designed for convenient portability. For very heavy loads, distribute the weight evenly and handle with care to ensure the handle's longevity.
Can I replace the writable card indexes?
The card indexes are not designed to be replaceable but can be written on. If needed, you can create your own labels and affix them to the compartments.
What is the material of the file?
The file is made from FSC certified material, indicating it comes from responsibly managed forests.
How do I clean the expanding file?
Wipe the exterior and interior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the file.
Can this file store documents other than paper?
It is primarily designed for paper documents. Storing items of significantly different thickness or material may strain the compartments and closure.
Troubleshooting
Compartments difficult to expand
Gently pull each section apart. Ensure no documents are obstructing the expansion.
Clip closure not staying secured
Check that the file is not overfilled. Ensure the clip mechanism is free of debris and functioning correctly.
Card indexes not sticking or writing well
Ensure the surface of the compartment is clean and dry. Use a ballpoint pen or pencil for best results on the card stock.
