A file cabinet is provided and comprises an outer housing defining an opening, at least one file drawer assembly slidably disposed within the opening, the at least one file drawer assembly including an open-ended storage box, and a split-bodied fire-resistant cavity including first and second cavity
A file cabinet is provided and comprises an outer housing defining an opening, at least one file drawer assembly slidably disposed within the opening, the at least one file drawer assembly including an open-ended storage box, and a split-bodied fire-resistant cavity including first and second cavity portions. The first cavity portion is mounted within the outer housing, and the second cavity portion is mounted to the file drawer assembly and is configured to surround a portion of the open-ended storage box. A mating interface is provided between the first and second cavity portions. The open-ended storage box is accessible when the at least one file drawer assembly is in an open position. The first and second cavity portions are configured to join together at the mating interface to entirely surround the open-ended storage box when the at least one file drawer assembly is in a closed position.
