Open & close case file mobile sorter storage & powered court records shelving
With a new and updated federal courthouse expected for a city within the Midwest, an architect gave serious thought to using a combination of moving storage in a number of areas for the sake of making better use of the space. Having made a definite decision about the kind of accommodation he wished to outfit the space with, the architect then reached out to the local representative for help in communicating with end users and assessing needs. Once that was all said and done, a pair of open and close case file mobile sorter storage units were devised for two separate spaces within the courthouse. One unit was to be featured in the United States District Court Clerk’s Office, while the other would be in the Bankruptcy Court Clerk’s Office. Both were reserved for storing active and nonactive case files.
The files’ design allowed them to be consolidated into one location for each of the courts. This was very different to that of the former facility, where file rooms were everywhere. The task of locating and working with records was very much inconvenient as a result. This was not so with the new file rooms, as they saw to it that records were properly accommodated by locating them in one central area. Powered court records shelving would subsequently be purchased by the U.S. Marshal’s Office later down the line. How compact mobile storage shelving makes better use of space than that of conventional filing cabinets is demonstrated.
Open & close case file mobile sorter storage adds efficiency
Within the interior of the two open and close case file mobile sorter storage units are records needing to be archived, while those considered to be active are kept at the ends of the aisle. Nearly 10,000 files are accommodated within the space. There are also roughly 200 daily file requests from attorneys, judges and the public. A majority, of which, involve active files. Having the records stored as they are, makes the process of locating and retrieving them more efficient.
Powered court records shelving adds file capacity & improves accessibility
The courthouse also included raised-access flooring. It made the space increasingly flexible, while also allowing computer and communications cabling to be accommodated for. Aware of the state of the floors, the architect and the representative collaborated on the design of the mobile systems to ensure they performed effectively. This, of course, included powered court records shelving. It was acquired by the U.S. Marshal’s Office some time after the procurement of the open & close case file mobile sorter storage. With its installation, accessibility for physically challenged employees was much improved and increased file capacity was provided for. It meant there was no need for less efficient conventional filing cabinets. High density mobile storage & filing images.
