## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where do I find hanging folders that will fit in this frame? The width of the frame is only 11 1/2", most folders have 11 3/4" length.**
A: there are only 2 standard frame sizes, standard and legal. my standard frame is  12 inches across the front and will accommodate ANY standard hanging file folders. ...Where did you get the frame? if you purchased a standard frame then the only conclusion is there may have been an error in assembly?

**Q: 2 hanging folder frames, does this mean 2 set of frames for 2 drawers**
A: Yes, 2 sets for 2 drawers

**Q: Can they stand alone without being put into a drawer?**
A: They are best used in a drawer other wise they are wobbly becasue the stands are not wide and any weight on them might make them tip

**Q: Will this work to hang letter-size files in a legal-width drawer?**
A: Yep.  The hangers are free standing so they will let you hang folders anywhere in any width drawer or on a table or even on the floor if you are very short.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Work good but limited on quantity.
*by D***C on February 4, 2026*

Work good but really disappointed in the fact that I could only order 2 sets at a time. Is there a shortage on these or what? Makes it difficult to start files for new year.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy, great fit, easy to assemble
*by P***S on November 18, 2025*

These arrived today (on time), great quality, easy to assemble. In place and sturdy. Exactly what I needed!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tricky
*by J***E on June 22, 2025*

I suppose the fact that I own a filing cabinet that needs this item is telling. Regardless, this product does the job. It’s a little tricky putting the frames together. The pieces are long and thin and wobbly as a result. Long and thin does not mean cheap. The metal pieces are sturdy. Having another set of hands would make the process that much quicker, but it is doable alone. At a minimum, you will need a flathead screwdriver (or a butter knife, or letter opener) and a pair of heavy duty pliers. You will also need some strength in your hands in order to break off the main brace piece if it is too long for your drawer. (I had to get some help.) Luckily, those pieces are pre-indented in order to make adjustment easier. You will also need to be able to wash/wipe off your hands as the metal pieces are a bit oily. Overall, this product is fine. It does its job and now that I have installed it into my filing cabinet drawers, I doubt I will ever give it another thought. That is nice to know. This is begrudgingly a win.
