Why Fireproof File Cabinets are the Professional Choice


If you’re putting a document away in a file cabinet, it’s usually because it’s important enough to keep for a long time. Otherwise, you'd probably would not bother filing it to begin with.

If your documents are important enough to be saved, why risk losing them in a fire? Often, what gets filed away are the original copies of very important paperwork. Be it a contract, customer file, photo, birth certificate or something else, you’re bound to have documents that are nearly impossible to replace. Simply putting away these crucial items is not enough. A fireproof filling cabinet will give you the extra peace of mind in knowing that in case of fire, your irreplaceable documents have added protection. As an added bonus, most fireproof file cabinets also come with impact protection (in case of drops, falls, hits) and some models also offer water protection against flooding.

Aetna, one of the nation’s largest insurance companies, knows the importance of prevention and protection in case of the unexpected. It is sadly too easy for a sudden disaster to wipe out a company. Not only does Aetna insure others, but they also make sure to protect themselves and their vital documents.

As stated by Cynthia Balmer, Senior Executive Assistant at Aetna, "All of our offices nationwide are required to store certain vital records in a UL®-rated fireproof filing cabinet. Items such as customer contracts and sensitive internal documents must be protected in the case of a disaster."

She continues by emphasizing the importance of protecting your important documents: "Being in the insurance industry ourselves, we know how important it is to protect these documents because some of them are very difficult, if not impossible, to replace or re-create. All businesses should take the extra precautions to be as prepared as Aetna is."

A fireproof file cabinet is the professional choice by both major corporations and savvy small businesses. With a wide range of sizes, options and prices to suit every budget, there is no reason to not choose a fireproof file cabinet. In fact, considering the serious consequences, can you afford not to?
