• It’s best to store large paper formats such as posters, drawings, lighting plans, etc. in drawers designed specifically for this purpose (map/poster cabinets). These are available up to A0+ format (1600mm x 841mm). Metal cabinets with a powder coating dried at high temperature are best.
• Multiple paper documents can be stored in a single drawer, but make sure you don’t overfill them as this can put too much pressure on the documents at the bottom.
• Take into account that you need to be able to put documents in the cabinet and take them out again quickly and easily.
• If you’re storing documents of assorted sizes together in one drawer, place the largest ones at the bottom.
• It’s best to protect delicate documents in an (acid-free) cover.
