Does it hold hanging file folders?

No. It is a shelving cabinet with doors, not a drawer file. Hanging folders need a rail system this unit does not include, so use binders or file boxes on the shelves.

How tall is it and will it fit a low ceiling?

It stands 71 inches tall, about 5 feet 11 inches. Check ceiling height and any overhead fixtures before placing it, and leave room to open the doors.

Should I anchor it to the wall?

Yes. A tall, narrow steel cabinet can tip if a door is left open or a child climbs it. Use the wall-anchoring hardware or a strap, especially in homes with kids or pets.

How many shelves does it have?

The cabinet uses adjustable shelves behind its doors. Confirm the shelf count for the exact configuration you order, since listings vary by model.

Is it suitable for a garage or damp basement?

Powder-coated steel handles humidity better than wood or particleboard, but standing water and prolonged damp can still cause rust. Keep it off wet floors.
