                  Comments about MBI Front to Back Lateral File Rails:

                  Terrible. Idiotic design, and the instructions are nearly unreadable and what is readable is nonsensical. Files drag on bottom of drawer, and moving them causes these rails to pop out of place, making the files fall. There must be a better product out there somewhere.

                  • Q:

                    I have a 30" lateral file cabinet and I need the rails to run side to side 30" length for my drawer to convert it to a hanging file drawer. Is this the right product? It mentions something about a 15.5 inch length.

                      I apologize, but these will only allow for front to back filing. We would need further information from you, such as the make and model of your file cabinet, to further assist you. Please contact us at 800-333-3330 for assistance.

                    i have a 2 drawer lateral filing cabinet. I don't know the brand, I bought it about 4 years ago and it doesn't have anything stamped on the cabinet specifing the brand. I either got it at staples or sam's club It is 36" wide will these work to make drawers front to back filing?

                      These are 16-1/2" long, we'd recommend measuring to see if they'd fit. Even if you order them and they don't, we'd be glad to return it at no cost to you for a full refund!
