What Is Color-Coded Filing?
-
Research show color coding using end-tab
files saves time... more than 70%
-
Color-coded labels improve filing accuracy
and oprations. It's easier to recognize colors than black
and white images.
-
Associations between colors and letters
or numbers quickly become routine. It's easier to locate
something that has been misfiled.

Why End-Tab Files?
Files identified with tabs on the narrow side of
the folder instead of the top or long side are called end-tab or
"shelf" files. End tabs are easily recognized when stored
in shelf-style cabinetry. The combination of this style of file
folder with color coding and shelf cabinets improves filing accuracy
and saves time and file storage space.

|
Why Shelf-Style Filing?
-
Lateral or shelf-style filing saves more
space than conventional drawer filing. Since files are accessible
from the side instead of from a drawer, they can be positioned
higher, resulting in more files per square foot. Drawer clearances
are not required, saving even more floor area!
-
Several people can access the same cabinet
at the same time. File access time is also reduced because drawers
do not have to be opened and closed.
-
Mobilizing these cabinets can provide even
greater space savings in tight or crowded offices.

Lateral System
By moving shelves laterally (left or right), you
have access to all rows without using additional aisle
space. This concept allows your storage system to
grow as your storage needs increase.
Compacting System
