Blueprint Storage
Vertical Jalema Grafi-System

blueprint flat storageOur vertical filing systems make flat files obsolete by offering you more space and lower cost. In addition to the Grafi-System graphic arts filing system, Jalema has been marketing hanging file systems for blueprint storage, drawings, maps, plans, artwork and other large format material in Europe for over 55 years.

Jalema has combined the graphic arts filing system product line with these products to offer a large format filing solution for engineers, architects and planners. Drawing strips with an adhesive backing are used for individual pages as well as hanging clamps and large format files with dust flaps for groups of drawings. This blueprint storage system allows the user to save space by storing 3-4 times more blueprints in a given area when compared to flat file cabinets while offering better accessibility and faster retrieval.

Flat file cabinets are one of the most inefficient methods of filing available. Vertical space is wasted and actual filing capacity is only about 20 inches per 10-drawer flat file cabinet due to the physical construction of the cabinet and air space between the drawers.

Finding valuable film, plates, blueprint storage, maps and plans in a flat file cabinet is difficult since it requires the user to search for a stack of material that may not be grouped or indexed. The material is almost in the bottom of the drawer making filing and retrieval a nightmare resulting in lost productivity, scratched film or damaged plates and drawings.

Jalema floor racks, which use vertical space, are available for high-density archive storage. A Jalema 2-level Uni-racks, with a width of about 39", offers 75" of usable fling inches which is the same capacity as 3-4 flat files.

Wall racks, table arms and mobile carts for managing active material. T-bars can also be retrofitted to fit in existing 4-post and mobile shelving systems. Color- coded tabs are used for identifying documents and allowing for quick retrieval.

flat file cabinetsThe Axcess plan file, also known as the Easi File, allows for efficient blueprint storage and protection of single drawings with several models available for sizes ranging from 24"x36" to 44"x72". This blueprint storage cabinet is another efficient method for plan filing allowing for quick and easy filing and space efficiency. Before you search for flat files, remember, Blueprint flat storage is fast and easy with the Axcess vertical storage cabinet.
