can the drawers hold standard size file folders

You can lay folders down in the drawer, but cannot hang folders in the drawer.

No. The way the drawers ABOVE the file drawer slide in and out would make it, I believe, impossible to convert them into a second file drawer.

yes all drawers are usable. pretty good size. the file drawer is about 13" deep. almost half the size of a file cabinet at an office.

Not having an Ikea file drawer, I do not know for sure. But if other standard hanging folders fit, these certainly will. They are standard size. If the Ikea drawer doesn't use standard width rails or supports for hanging folders (i.e. standard distance between each side), no they would not fit.

If you mean a standard 8x11 file folder, no chance. It is only 7-inches wide internally. A folder won't fit. Neither will a piece of 8x11 paper unless you fold it.

It holds standard letter-sized hanging folders. I didn't measure, but if they will hold 12" wide paper, then this file cabinet will.

Yes!! Mine has PLENTY of room! It will easily fit Legal sized File Folders.

You can use regular folders but the hanging folders keep everything tidy and in place. I love the cabinet, very sturdy never a worry of falling over.

Yes, but the handles are secured firmly on the files so they don't readily separate. I'd recommend using a vice and mallet if you need to replace the files.

Yes, both drawers have racks and they hold a good number of folders. This file cabinet is quite a bargain.

I believe do. Thought these files were pretty much "standard". My file cabinet is nothing really special comes from a Office a Max. If for some reason these don't fit then made you have to get one of those "file drawer inserts" to accommodate the Sure Hook Hanging a Files, good luck

legal size files would be side to side. The drawer pulls out almost completely.I have no problem seeing the letter size file in the back of the drawer.

It will hold legal size folders. I keep legal size hanging file folders in it and transfer letter and legal size folders in and out of another working legal size file drawer, depending on what is current business, titles, documents I wouldn't want to lose in a fire.

The drawers do have bottoms, so the unit could be used for other items than just hanging folders.

I agree with Grits. I don't have an Ikea file drawer, but I think they will fit any standard file setup. The difference to me is that the black plastic has some "depth" to it... so when these are empty, they take up more space in the drawer (won't mush flat) than normal hanging file folders. But once there's (enough) paper in the folder, it doesn't matter.

I do use the bottom right as a file drawer but the files fit into the drawer sideways. They included the rails for the file folders to hang from. The drawer is notched so you can use the rails for letter size or legal size folders.

Yes, it does. Each drawer comes with a set of rails that can be place for legal-size or letter-size folders.
