Could I put these on their sides, so the opening is facing forward? Or would they just fold upon themselves in that orientation?

That should be fine as long as you have them with the handles on the sides. Let us know if you have any other questions.

You can place them facing forward. I placed one just that way and it does not fold up. It is very sturdy.

It cannot fit in my cubes if I put it on the side with the opening facing out.

They can sit right against each other and the doors open. You'd just have to have a 1x4 (possibly thicker; I can't measure it now that it's installed) vertically in between them to space and mount them properly.

I have not, but they're pleated on the sides and do expand quite a bit. I think it would work.

Yes,if you side mount them like they are supposed to be installed. I put mine on top of my rack and fixed it where it won't fold. ;)

If you sit them on their side, yes I believe so. I use them for clothes but I don't see why not. They are very sturdy for just being lined with some kind of cardboard.

Hi, they actually have the ability to be either right or left opening. They are designed in such a way that there is technically no specific top or specific bottom. So, you just flip them according to which way you want them to open. I have two of them and one opens to the right and one to the left.

They are stackable, but only open at the top. You might consider laying them on their side and stacking them, if that would work for you.

They might fit if they were folded some.. I don't think it would work very well.

You can fold them, though it would still be bulky. Their made of thick canvas.

If using letter sized they will face the side. Wish I had asked that question... Once I put the thing together I was ready to be done so I didn't investigate if I can rearrange the hang bars sideways... I imagine I'll end up buying legal sized hanging folders

I have not tried it but since they collapse on the sides, I wouldn't try it. I have set them on their sides to have easier access to contents when they are on a shelf and they seem to hold up fine, but don't think it would work to stack them on their side.

You would have to fold them very tight.. i love the cabinet it looks great!

Yes, you definitely can. I have two of them side-by-side and they open just fine.

a flat area about 2" would be best.If they are mounted on the side the convex would do up & down. its meant to do sideways

No. The only overhang is on the front. So you could put them side to side without issue I believe.

I wouldn't use these on one side. They are slightly taller (about 1/3 an inch) but they are quite a bit stiffer.

I have no problems with them opening themselves. I can turn them upside down with my 60 card deck in sleeves inside of them and they don't open. They are very good.
