Smead Steel Hanging File Folder Frame, Letter Size, Gray, 2 per Pack (64870)

Wasn't sure how sturdy this would be in my nice wooden file cabinet drawer after the original one collapsed, but the proof is self-evident after I installed this replacement. Following easy instructions with pliers and a screwdriver, the length adjustment and fastening went as instructed without a hitch. It works well and so far is reliable.

Great product. Very sturdy. And MADE IN THE USA!

Decent product. Might be a little flimsy.

Dislike: Shipped in the box you would see on the shelf at an office supply store. While all the parts were there, I can see how that might not always be the outcome.Like: good, sturdy hanging file frame to update older file cabinets. Not hard to install with fairly basic tools.I got an older five drawer cabinet from a friend who had purchased a few at a GSA auction for helping him load them up. Its the odd cabinet out of the bunch, but heavier, and IMHO, better constructed than the newer ones. Only problem was that it was not set up for hanging file folders. These frames fixed that problem. Installation involves measuring the side rails to to ensure they will fit your drawer, and if necessary, trimming them by breaking off (at the scored marks on the rail) any excess. I recommend using water pump pliers ('Channelocks') to ensure it breaks off where you want it to.Then loosen the screws on the end supports slightly, insert the rail, and tighten. Do that for both rails, at both ends, and slide it into the drawer, and you can file like a pro!

I've used this type of rack before so I wasn't expecting anything great. It's serviceable and that's what I wanted. The rails were about 27" long; my file cabinet is only 16" deep. Even breaking off the end pieces would not have met my needs. Not a big deal to adjust with the hacksaw. I believe the package/box I received had been returned by someone else based upon the tape on the box and it's used condition. Glad I was able to use the item, even with necessary adjustments.

I had none of the problems some of the other reviewers talked about. First, if you don't know how to break these off to fit then ask somebody for help. Don't bend it up because that will only a) weaken the supports, and b) make it harder to assemble. For assembly, lay the legs on a flat, raised surface (like a desk or table) and position one side piece at a time into the grooves and tighten down the screw. Then move onto the other side. After both side pieces are attached to one leg stand it up (as it would sit in your drawer) and slide the other leg on and tighten the screws.I really don't understand people. If you do not have the knowledge it requires to adjust and assemble something it's not the manufacturer's fault.In order to adjust mine to 25" I put the side rails in a vise and lined up the mark. Then I took lineman's and grabbed it straight from the end. It took very little effort to bend and break off the excess.To address one other concerns....The rails were a little dirty when I took them out of the box. But unlike another reviewer here I did not have to wipe it down with wet paper towels then wash my hands multiple times during assembly installation.The product does seem sturdy enough for a moderate amount of files. However, I don't know that I would want to stuff a drawer completely full of files using these. It could cause the side rails to warp or snap off where it attaches to the legs. With that said, keep in mind that we are talking about very deep drawers that can hold a lot of stuff. I'm not sure if any other product would hold up to a drawer stuffed full, either.

i am trying to return this and i was told by costumer service that they were was sending a bar code to my email in the next 24 hour which i have not received do i need to call costumer again

Did just what I expected very happy
