Can you put letter-sized hanging files within these boxes in such a way that they hang in the box? If so, does the lid fit over the top?

You can hang files in the boxes but the cover does not fit correctly over them.

These are not the type with the flip lid and you can put files in the letter-sized files in the boxes but there is no hanging feature.

I was hoping for this as well. Unfortunately, not really. You can force it but you can tell it's not made for it. You can put hanging folders in but no lid. I had to get non-hanging folders to get the top to close.

No . not in any functional way. You might be able to squeeze them both in if the closed folder is really thin in width and depth

Yes, I believe you could use this shelving cart in the manner you described. The hanging shelves and the one tray shelf are height adjustable. If you wanted the tray on top you could easily put it there, and adjust the hanging shelf to accommodate your larger hanging folders. I have both box hanging folders for lightweight notebooks, and Advantus Hanging folders (for 12 X 12 papers) hanging from my top shelf. I have standard 8 1/2 X 11 hanging folders in the middle area, a pack or two of 8 1/2 X 11 cardstock stored on the bottom shelf as my configuration.

They can definately be hung seperately. In fact by hanging them seperately you will get much more space to put files then when they are stacked.

Yes, but only when laid flat. 12" paper would not fit in the hanging file system. The hanging file system will only allow what can fit in a standard manilla file folder.

I would say no, but it depends on how you plan to use this. I have hanging files in the top portion of my cart, like they do in the photo. Consequently, the open part of the files, along with the identification tabs, would be crushed if you put anything on top. But if you didn't use tabs, and if you didn't mind not being able to have quick access to the things inside your hanging files, then you could stack something on top. However, I think a better solution would be to buy the file cart with a drawer on the top and the hanging files below, because that cart has a firm shelf/drawer cover on top, and you could easily stack your basket there.

Yes! There is an edge all around the inside for hanging the folders, and the crates are still stackable with the folders inside.

Yes. I keep heavy files in them and they do just fine. It is well made and sturdy. I would keep the heavier items in the bottom drawer to keep it from being top heavy.

Mine do not fit legal size files/folders. They hang on a T shaped hanger(2 vertical parts) that we mounted w/ anchors into drywall. Not sure about partition hangers, but probably would work. Each basket hangs separately on the hanger.

Yes. This is designed to handle hanging files and folders. The hardware where the files hang sits along the top lip of the drawers and files hang nicely.

They are a little thinker than plastic document protectors. They should not fall down if you are putting them in like a hanging file. I also fine when documents are in them, they get even sturdier.

I do use the bottom right as a file drawer but the files fit into the drawer sideways. They included the rails for the file folders to hang from. The drawer is notched so you can use the rails for letter size or legal size folders.

Well I use the legal size hangers on top (which I use daily) and regular size folders on the bottom (rarely used). It is troublesome, but if you are only going to use regular size it might be easier. It is pretty sturdy. I have so many files so it is a tight fit, which makes it hard at times. I use it in my home office, I like that I can take it from room to room. I just wish it was longer so that it could accommodate my files more easily. I hope this helps.

I believe do. Thought these files were pretty much "standard". My file cabinet is nothing really special comes from a Office a Max. If for some reason these don't fit then made you have to get one of those "file drawer inserts" to accommodate the Sure Hook Hanging a Files, good luck

There should be no problem with that. The letter sized folders are almost 12 inches wide, legal are almost 15. They are designed to hang in a file drawer or box. There's plenty of leeway.

If you want to use legal size folders you would have to design some sort of cradle for hanging folders, because there is no support for them on the front or the back of the drawer. Size-wise legal folders can be accommodated, but I'm not sure I'd want to buy something that doesn't quite work.

Yes, the lid can close with the label tabs on the hanging folders. This is a very sturdy file box. When the lid is closed and locked, the box can be easily picked up by the handle. I originally ordered 2 boxes and was so please with the quality that I ordered 2 more.
