Three-Drawer Lateral File 42w Charcoal

The HON 693LS 600 Series three-drawer lateral file provides high-density filing in a 42 inch wide footprint. Its charcoal baked enamel finish resists wear in busy office environments. The unit suits administrative teams, legal practices or any workspace needing side-to-side folder storage.

Check drawer clearance

Ensure the installation area allows full drawer extension without striking walls or adjacent furniture. Verify that the floor can support a fully loaded steel cabinet and use the four adjustable leveling guides to compensate for uneven surfaces. Confirm the counterweight is installed as supplied to maintain stability when drawers open.

Double-walled steel construction

Reinforced case steel and a double-walled base deliver rigidity for daily heavy use. Telescoping ball-bearing suspension ensures quiet, smooth drawer travel while the mechanical interlock prevents multiple drawers opening simultaneously. Aluminum recessed pulls, plastic label holders and a core-removable lock secure both drawer sides for reliable everyday operation.

Questions about this item

Does the 693LS lateral file include the counterweight and hangrails, or must they be ordered separately?

The counterweight is included, and adjustable hangrails for letter-size or legal-size folders are also supplied with the unit.

How do I decide between the 42-inch wide 600 Series model and other widths in the range?

Choose the 42-inch width when you need maximum side-to-side filing capacity for letter or legal folders in a single cabinet footprint.

What does the mechanical interlock on the 693LS actually prevent in daily use?

It prevents more than one drawer from opening at the same time, keeping the cabinet stable and reducing tip-over risk.
