String-and-Button File Boxes for Reclosable Record Access

String-and-button file storage boxes use overlapping top flaps and an attached string that wraps around button-style eyelets. The reusable closure lets staff reopen the box without cutting tape, while white corrugated surfaces support identification. Choose the correct letter or legal orientation and use this format where periodic top access is part of the records process.

Choose the Closure for Repeat Access

The string-and-button mechanism keeps its closing components attached to the box and can be opened repeatedly. It is useful when records must be reviewed and returned to storage without consuming tape each time. Leave enough shelf clearance to release the string and open the overlapping flaps without damaging them or disturbing adjacent boxes.

For a one-piece top that closes with interlocking corrugated flaps, compare file storage boxes with flaps. For inactive files that need a straightforward lift-off cover, consider removable-lid file boxes.

Protect the Closure and Control File Weight

Match letter or legal format to the exact folder orientation, then assemble the bottom squarely and keep files below the flap path. Wrap the string snugly enough to hold the top closed without pulling excessively on the eyelets. Do not lift or carry the loaded box by the string, buttons or top flaps.

Label contents and retention details before placing the box into storage. The reclosable mechanism is not a lock and does not indicate whether someone has opened the container. Corrugated construction is not inherently archival, waterproof or fire-resistant. Where custody, environmental protection or restricted access matters, use a specifically documented system and separate operating controls.

String Button File Storage FAQs

How does a string-and-button file box close?

Its attached string wraps around button-style eyelets to hold overlapping top flaps closed.

Can the closure be reopened?

Yes. It is designed for repeat access without cutting carton-sealing tape.

Is string-and-button storage tamper-evident?

No. The closure is reclosable and does not show whether the box has been opened.

Can I carry the box by the string?

No. Use the intended box-handling points and keep the file weight manageable.
