Despite the general computerization, paper media are still in demand and are mandatory in the work of many, not even government agencies. The rules for their storage require a specially designated and equipped place or room, and for compact placement, so-called with archival tellages are widely used. Unlike classic office furniture, they are more practical, convenient to use and, most importantly, affordable for a budget organization.

Before you start choosing racks for storing paper documents, you need to clarify the following information - the premises used for archives must correspond to:
- Fire safety requirements, so the equipment for them must be made of non-combustible materials.
- Standards for reliability and strength, have a manufacturer's warranty and technical specifications for the possible permissible load during operation.
In this case, you should take into account the possibility of moving the archive to another room. Sufficient mobility, ease of disassembly and installation is another important selection criterion. The design parameters of the main archival racks used today allow them to be divided into the following types:
- Stationary - a classic type, most often found in city polyclinics and hospitals. They are distinguished by simplicity, lightness and low cost. It is a structure in the form of shelves from floor to ceiling.
- Mobile - more complex, but convenient in terms of space saving. Equipped with special mechanisms for free movement along specially installed guides using a mechanical or electric drive.
- Angular is a great option for a very small archive. Allows you to compactly and conveniently place it directly in the user's office, securely fixing the device in the corner of the room.
You can familiarize yourself with various options for archival racks using the official website of their manufacturer. The online catalog contains detailed technical descriptions of models, sizes, as well as their photos.
