Rotary Units

Businesses large and small still need to keep hard copy files even in today’s world of electronic communication. Some organisation's are required by law to keep hard copies of documents e.g. police, doctors, courts, solicitors and many more just prefer the security of hard copies.

Outsourcing filing is not usually cost-effective for smaller organisations, and can incur large recall charges for larger organisations. This means there is still significant demand for office based document storage.

Filex Systems will provide an alternative solution to the standard office filing system. The Rotary Unit consists of two lateral filing cabinets that rotate within a single outer shell. Simply depress the foot pedal, rotate and within three seconds the equivalent of another filing cabinet appears in the space usually occupied by one. The file quite literally comes to the customer.

The dual nature of the unit means floor-space saving is a given, in most cases a massive 50%. One seven tier Rotary Unit contains nearly three times as much file space as two standard 4-drawer filing cabinets within the same floor space (footprint).

Rotary Units are versatile with three to eight tiers available, and a range of different shelf options and drawers to suit different customer needs. With just one quarter turn the Rotary Unit will be fully closed and can be securely locked. Various colours can even be arranged. Add-on units take care of future growth.

Filex Systems provide a personalised customer focused service. A single point of contact and factory trained staff help customers specify and plan the installation to best suit their individual business needs.

Better business decisions

Imagine two lateral filing cabinets back-to-back that rotate within an outer shell.

You don’t have to move an inch, the files come to you. Two files in one – that’s Rotary Units.

Stand in front of a 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 tier Rotary Unit. Depress the foot pedal and rotate the inner cube and within three seconds the equivalent of another complete lateral cabinet is in front of you.

But this is just the beginning. Rotary Units have a lot more to offer, including tremendous space and cost savings. Increased productivity is the result.

Administration productivity is sometimes difficult to put a price on, but good filing practice ensures that the right information is presented at the right time to those needing to make crucial business decisions.

Versatility

Unlike traditional 4-drawer filing cabinets, Rotary Units are a genuine multipurpose filing system. Rotary Units have a broad range of shelf options ensuring that whatever your current or future applications Rotary Units can keep in step with change. All shelves are quick and easy to modify.

Security

With just a quarter turn Rotary Units are fully closed and securely locked. Two sides of the unit are flush metal panels. This means no more doors shutters. Simply depress the foot pedal, turn the filing unit and lock. Should you need higher levels of security for sensitive records then more sophisticated security locks can be fitted - as well as ability to have lockable drawers within each unit.

Future Growth

Rotary Units are designed to keep pace with your business growth and can expand with your filing and general storage needs. Add-on units can be attached at any time to suit your changing requirements.

Colours And Finishes

Rotary Units are available in a wide range of standard and special colours. So what ever the ultimate colour decision, Rotary Units can match and complement your choice.

Fitments

A range of fittings that truly keep up with your individual needs. Rotary Units can be tailored by the user to meet the needs of any document management system.

Less time, more accuracy

Rotary Units give you the equivalent of three 4-drawer cabinets worth of filing on display at any one time (three each side, six in all), so less time is spent trawling through conventional cabinets for that important file. By introducing colour-coded filing, this will ensure that file retrieval is a more accurate process. Studies show that colour- coding can speed up the filing process by 40% and help eliminate those instances of ‘lost’ files, further improving the productivity of the office.

Flexible working

It is important when working up new office layouts to consider how the day-to-day filing and storage needs will fit into the design. Frequently this subject, often seen as ‘a necessary evil’, can be overlooked and sidelined by more important issues. Rotary Units overcome most physical limitations and can be built into an alcove, used as a room divider, configured back-to-back for maximum capacity or arranged with panel systems of any height. They can also be positioned through a wall or partition serving two offices at the same time. Closed backs can be applied for high security.

Redefine Space

Take time to see how just three Rotary Units can swallow the equivalent of 18 4-drawer filing cabinets. Take a little more time to discover the saving in floor space, in most cases this is a massive 50%. Now consider what you can do with the space saved. More work stations, more generous communal areas or better space allocation for meeting rooms. Rotary Units enable you to redefine space creating new opportunities. The cost and inconvenience of moving premises may even be removed.
