About this product
The Cathedral Foolscap Metal File Box helps you keep important paperwork organised and secure in one practical place. It holds A4 documents comfortably, with five suspended manila folders that separate different categories, so you can find what you need without rummaging through loose papers. The powder-coated steel provides solid protection for birth certificates, insurance documents, and other essentials you need to keep safe. A cam lock secures the contents with two keys included, giving you control over who can access your files.
The carrying handle makes it easy to move between rooms or take with you when needed. The stackable design lets you add more boxes over time without taking up extra floor space. Foolscap filing compatibility means it works with standard suspension files and tabs. The black finish fits neatly into home offices, under desks, or on shelving units. Designed to keep vital documents protected and easy to locate when you need them most.

Customers Say
Sturdy, lightweight metal filing box with good capacity and neutral colors. Lock mechanism often criticized for poor security and alignment issues. Suitable for organizing documents but not ideal for secure transport.

Good size but not overly secure.
Bought this to replace a large plastic box that we'd bought previously. This is a great fit as the precious one was a larger box, but the latch on this isn't great if you want it to be secure. If the key is in, the latch slips when you try and pick it up by the handle and the box opens up. Good storage but not the most secure.

Useful product
Excellent product and great service from Dereham Argos as usual.

As expected
Basic metal filing box. Hard to get excited about it. It does what it's supposed to do.

Durable with good capacity
I bought this as a birthday present for my brother. I particularly wanted the foolscap size which unfortunately was not available locally in any colour except pink. Very disappointing as the terminal allowed me to order it in grey but the order was then cancelled within 30 mins. I had no choice but to take a pink box if I wanted one in time. It is durable and can hold quite a few files - more than the old file it is replacing. I cannot comment on the security as I have not used the file box myself.

File for paperwork
Handy file for organising paperwork

Very poor locks.
Bought two, catches down not meet on either purchase therefore cannot lift the box by the handle.

File box
Only thing is when I ordered extra files when they arrived they would not fit the file box so I had to go back to Linwood store for a replacement box

Hi There,
Cathedral Foolscap Metal File Box - Black
This comes with two keys.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Not from Argos as they do not sell foolscap suspension files. The A4 ones recommended on the site by a member of staff are too small.
Hello Greg,
The supplier has advised the following for the Cathedral Foolscap Metal File Box - Pink:
The Brand confirms that they do suitable additional files as well, but they do advise that any A4 or Foolscap ones will fit the Cathedral File boxes.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi Paps
The files from the Cathedral Foolscap Metal File Box, can be removed.
Thank you for using Q&A.
The folder size is known as Foolscap - try searching that but I dont believe Argos sells that size at this moment. A4 is not the correct size
Hi AJB,
The Cathedral Foolscap Metal Box File - Black is suitable for use with A4 foolscap suspension files.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi there
Having checked with the supplier for you I can let you know the FS File box is best with 25 files in it. They can hold more but it starts to get tight at 30 files.
Thanks for using Q & A
Hello there,
The Cathedral Foolscap Metal Box File - Black 9326383 is larger and heavier than 911/9875 .
Thank you for using Argos Q&A.
Hi Rocky,
This comes with 5 suspension files, tabs and inserts included.
Hope this helps!

I believe since the dimensions are H30, W43, D22cm, you need to get folders that are 406mm wide. Argos doesnt stock that size sadly!
Hello AJG
I would advise that this Cathedral Foolscap Metal Box File - Black is indeed suitable for foolscap filing.
Thank you for using Argos Q&A.

Hi Creamcake,
The Metalbox has foolscap sized suspension files, it may not be large enough to contain folders as well as the documents and hanging file.
Thanks for using Argos Q&A
