Easi File Supplies

What are Hangers?

Easi File Hangers are designed to securely hold your single sheet documents, including Mylars, in your Easi File cabinet. Sold in packages of 100, Easi File Hangers are made of tearproof polyester with a self-adhesive strip along the bottom edge. Your documents are prepared for vertical filing by removing the paper covering the adhesive strip and then attaching the hanger to the edge of your document. A regular permanent marker can be used to add drawing number and title in the preprinted title block.

The Easi File Hanger Applicator is available to assist you with applying the Easi File Hangers to your documents.

What is a Hanger Applicator and how do I use it?

The innovative design of the Easi File Hanger Applicator allows you to attach your documents to the Easi File Hangers quickly and easily while providing optimal edge alignment and document placement. The Easi File Hanger Applicator is not required for attaching your documents to the Easi File Hangers, but it does ensure consistent results with no misaligned, crooked, or wrinkled documents to contend with. It is especially useful for your larger documents where handling is difficult and alignment of the strip with the document edge is important.

What are Staple Strips?

Easi File Staple Strips are designed to securely hold your smaller sets (up to ~40 sheets) in your Easi File cabinet. The Staple Strips are made of black plastic and have 3″ wide tabs in 5 staggered positions for attaching labels. Documents are stapled to the Staple Strips and then hung in the Easi File.

Easi File HD Staple Strips are designed to securely hold your larger sets (up to 250 sheets) in your Easi File cabinet. Heavy-Duty Staple Strips have a steel spine for support and hand-hold holes in the center for ease of carrying. Labels can be applied directly to the steel spine or the Self-Adhesive Tabs and Color Bars from the Index Kit can be used for organizing.

How do I attach my documents to Staple Strips?

Simply staple your documents onto the standard Staple Strip. Any heavy duty stapler can be used. Generally, 3/8″ staple can be used for the Staple Strip.

For Heavy Duty Staple Strips the documents need to be stapled from both the front and the back, taking care not to staple all the way through the documents (to make it easier to remove the documents should the need arise). Typically you would use staples that are just bigger than half the thickness of the set of documents. For example, if your plans are 1″ thick you would use 5/8″ staples.

How can I label my Hangers and Staple Strips?

Any file folder label can be used. We also offer our Index Kit for optimal indexing and organization of your documents.

What are clamps?

Easi File Clamps are designed to securely hold medium sets (up to 125 sheets) in your Easi File cabinet. The high-quality aluminum body, stainless steel hangers, and chrome plated steel wing knobs ensure durability and ease of use. Snap-on clear plastic label holders and paper labels are included. Easi File Clamps are available in 24″, 30″ and 36″” widths.
