Choosing the right file folders

FilingSupplies.com carries end-tab folders for open-shelf systems, top-tab folders for drawer filing, and heavy-duty classification folders with dividers and fasteners for multi-section records. Pick letter or legal size, then choose material (11-pt, 14-pt, or 18-pt manila), optional reinforced tabs, color-coding, and expansion capacity to match your volume.

Folder FAQs

End-tab vs. top-tab — what’s the difference?
End-tab folders show the tab on the long side and are used on open-shelf systems; top-tab folders show the tab along the top edge and are designed for drawer filing.
When should I choose classification folders?
Choose classification folders when you need built-in dividers and 2-prong fasteners to separate sections within one file—ideal for medical charts, legal matters, and case files.
Letter or legal size — how do I pick?
Letter (8.5" × 11") fits standard documents; legal (8.5" × 14") fits longer forms. Match the folder to both your documents and storage equipment.
What tab and material options are available?
Tabs include full-cut, 1/2-cut, or 1/3-cut (assorted positions). Materials range from 11-pt to 18-pt manila, with optional reinforced (2-ply) tabs for added durability.
Can I add fasteners, pockets, or expansion?
Yes—add 2" bonded fasteners (various positions), pockets/jackets, and expansion gussets (e.g., 3/4" to 2"+). Check each product’s options for capacity and placement.
