FIre and Water Resistance

The Ulrich Planfile and Minifile, our premier large document filing products, are designed with both fire and water resistance. Our fire resistant design features thick, double steel wall construction throughout; with fire resistant fiberglass insulation sandwiched between the steel walls. All four sides, the bottom and the lid of these filing systems utilize this insulated, double wall construction. Ulrich is the only manufacture to offer a large document filing systems with true, engineered, fire resistance construction. In the unfortunate event of a fire, Ulrich files offer this additional level of protection for your valuable documents.

When fires do occur, often water damage from sprinklers and fire hoses is a bigger problem that the fire itself. Ulrich has you cover there as well. The Ulrich Planfile and Minifile both feature a water lip and gasket system that protects the contents for water damage. Again, Ulrich is the only manufacture to offer filing systems with engineered water resistant design and construction.

You should always keep your files both closed and locked for the full benefit of these important design features.

The link below is a PDF file of the testing results, done by an independent observer, when an Ulrich Planfile was tested for heat resistance. For a more dramatic example of our fire resistant filing cabinets, take a look at the video presentation at www.ulrichplanfiling.com.

Map Storage Cabinet used at Penn State

PENN STATE CHOOSES ULRICH MAP STORAGE CABINET.
Map Collection housed in Ulrich Map storage cabinet - Planfile

You can find The Donald W. Hammer Maps Library  in the Central Pattee Library at the heart of the Penn State University Campus.  Notably, this map library is estimated to be one of the 15 largest map libraries in the country. And you will find more than 200,000 maps in this library. Specifically the collection includes Topographic maps, historic maps of Pennsylvania, Fire Insurance Maps and the regional Federal Depository Libraries Program (FDLP) maps collection. Also their collection extends to 4,000 atlases, reference books, gazetteers, cartography texts and historic aerial photographs.

Striving to provide the best to their patrons

Not only do these librarians meet the important job of safeguard the past, they have their feet firmly planted in the here and now. Namely providing digital geospatial data and expert geospatial consulting services, scanning and printing maps, and keeping up with a blog and a number of social media streams. Above all they strive to bring their patrons the best.

MAP STORAGE CABINET CHOICE

“It isn’t any one benefit of the Ulrich Planfile, but rather all the advantages together that we appreciate.”
-Laura Probst, Head of Public Services
Penn State University Library

Notably, the Planfile features that are especially important to the library’s staff and public users:

  • Easy access, easy to use
  • Reduced floor space
  • Fire and water resistance
  • Overall convenience
  • Lockable

These maps are kept safe in these Ulrich map storage cabinets. As shown above the standard lock, fire and water resistance and heavy duty folders provide great protection for these valuable maps. While reducing the floor space normally required for this type of storage. And the fact that these cabinets are easy to file, and that all filing is done at waist height make these Ulrich Planfiles the right map storage cabinets for these maps.

Penn State Map Librarians trust Ulrich Planfiles to preserve important Maps that will support generations of Geospacial Education.

NeoCon East was held on October 16th and 17th at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, MD. Ulrich was there and demonstrated our newest product, the Cadfile PF510 and our premier product the Planfile to a number of potential users and dealers. Our newest Cadfile is the most cost effective and space saving way to file documents up to 30” x 42”.

The show was well attended and showcased a number of new products. Included with the many visitors were a number of federal government and GSA personnel. We had a chance to discuss large document filing systems and solutions for a number of different and unusual applications. We had visitors with maps and charts, renderings, artwork, historical documents as well as the more common prints, drawings and cad plots. All in all it was a great show at a nice facility and Baltimore is place to visit. We are looking forward to next year!
