on good cabinets (with slides), pull drawer all the way out, there will be release latches on the left and right slides. Some have buttons you push in and some have levers you lift up.

There are so many types: Newer (cheap) file cabinet drawers can be removed (after removing most of the weight) by pulling the drawer out to it's limit then slightly lift the front of the drawer a few degrees up and then try lightly pulling forward.

Another style requires you to depress a small lever, at the rear most point of the drawer slides, on both the right and the left and then pulling forward.

Then there are more difficult drawers that have a small latch in the rear of the drawer (in the center) that needs to be either depressed or moved to the right or left.

Some of the older wood file cabinets, you will actually have to remove some screws on the "slides" (sometime located on the sides, sometime on the bottom.)

Note: File cabinets, when the drawers are full, can be prone to falling over when you pull the drawers out, please be careful.

How do you remove a drawer from a silverline four drawer filing cabinet?

There is a small square opening at the bottom center on both the right and left sides of the drawer with a tab that is bent through the drawer wall to the outside of the drawers. This must be bent back until it is fully within the inside of the drawer's storage area. You will need a screwdriver or similar tool to do that. Once that is done open one drawer at a time until fully extended in the open position. The drawers will then lift straight upward, sliding off four tabs located two on each side. It will take some wiggling to get it loose from the four tabs.


How do you remove a drawer from a 3 drawer Bisley filing cabinet?

there should be little plastic clips on the drawer runners when open push them up and pull out the drawer OR: If you have the alternative type- one of Triumph (UK) drawer cabinets, the A4 sheet filler, there is a little tab on the side of every drawer, 2 inches from the front. 1. remove plastic sleeve (if any) 2. untwist the metal locking tab with pliers so it fits the slot its protruding from. 3. when both sides are untwisted- lift to clear the tabs completely and pull towards you, as the drawer is held by two claws on the back as well and you need to slide out of those. REMEMBER TO WORK ON EMPTY DRAWERS- most people never realise that while a single sheet of A4 paper is feather light, a thousand or more can weight 'a tone'. ooldgregg
