The concept of a central file room or high density file room is to eliminate wasted office space of cluttered file cabinets. Office space is extremely valuable and usually can be re-captured by consolidating file cabinets into a central filing system. From free-standing shelving, to a high density mobile shelving system, a central file room will in most cases capture a higher density of storage than scattered cabinets utilizing heighth not available in file cabinets and using a smaller footprint to store files.
