Storage Cabinets & Drawers Designed for Large Format Documents
Storing large format documents flat is one of those problems that most standard filing and shelving systems can't solve. Rolled or folded plans deteriorate faster, become harder to read, and are slower to retrieve. The right solution is a flat plan cabinet — a purpose-built drawer system that stores A0-sized drawings, engineering plans, architectural documents, maps, and artwork horizontally, protecting them from creasing and making every sheet immediately accessible.
Hydestor's A0 Cabinet is NZ-designed and manufactured specifically for large format document storage. Available in configurations from 5 to 10 drawers, the system scales to the size of your collection without requiring additional floor space — each additional drawer sits within the same footprint. Internal drawer dimensions of 1227mm wide by 858mm deep comfortably accommodate A0 format documents, and the low-profile 75mm drawer height keeps each sheet lying flat and undisturbed. Whether you're managing architectural drawings, engineering plans, council maps, or a museum's large format print collection, our cabinets and drawers are built to hold and engineered to last.
If you’re looking for shelving or storage solutions for your workplace, office, school, library, museum or any other environment, there are a few things to be aware of.
Purpose-Built for A0 Format:
Internal drawer dimensions are sized specifically to store A0 documents flat, protecting them from the creasing and deterioration that comes with rolling or folding.
Scalable Drawer Count:
With configurations from 5 to 10 drawers within the same external footprint, you can scale storage capacity to your collection without increasing floor space.
NZ Manufacture & Precision Fit:
Being locally made means drawer tolerances are held to the standard needed for smooth daily operation — something that can vary significantly with imported alternatives.
Immediate Document Access:
Flat horizontal storage means any sheet can be retrieved without disturbing the rest of the collection, reducing handling time and the risk of damage.
Direct Parts & Support:
As the manufacturer, we provide replacement components and ongoing support directly, ensuring your cabinets and drawers remain in service long-term.
