    File Box 1871

    originally posted on sterilite.com
    Purchased 6 months ago. Great for transporting small files, but the locking mechanism is a problem. It broke and fell off after a few weeks. Have been managing with a carabiner clip through the lock hole. Is it possible to just get a replacement handle?

Sterilite does not manufacture extra lids or component parts for our products. Our products are manufactured and sold as a unit to retailers. Additionally, we are not set up to sell direct to consumers. We apologize for the inconvenience. Product quality and customer service are very important to us. Please reach out to us at Consumer-Team@sterilite.com for further assistance.

    Hinge Breaks Off Easily

    The latch hinge has a thin joint where the latch connects to the box, and the hinge breaks off easily through normal use.

    I bought the box because it seemed perfect for fransferring a small number of files from place to place. The hinge on the latch failed after about a year-and-a-half, rendering the box worthless for its intended function.

    This thing is great. I use to store all my children's' school work during the year. If I need to find anything school work during the year, I know right where it is. At the end of the school year, I empty and prepare for the next year.

    Love this box....but whats up with the lid hinge?!

    Jamie81p - 2 years ago

    This file box is exactly what I need for the few things I still keep in paper form. We recently ditched our large file cabinet and digitized most of what was in it. Pros: I like how the entire top area is designed to store essentials (pens, clips, scissors, etc). The other portable file boxes I considered don't have nearly as much space in the lid for this. The latch to close the box and the handle to pick up the box are both solid and sturdy. I can pick this box up one handed, by the handle, full of files and paper, and carry it with confidence (i.e. it does not feel like the latch or handle will give way....causing the bottom of the box to fall out and your files and papers ending up all over the floor due to handle or latch failure - - yes I've had this happen with other file box brands). The only Con I can find is with the hinges. The box I purchased didn't come with the little buttons or plugs that are needed to keep the lid secured to the box. Anyone know where I can find these? Or do I need to buy a whole other box?

    I bought this about a three weeks ago and in the first week of using it the cover fell off. It was easy to put back on but it still continues to fall off from the back hinge. It is missing the plugs that were supposed to be in it to keep this from happening. I have not put too much paperwork into yet but after looking at the other reviews I would expect for the handle or latch to break as well in the near future. I do not know how they can sell a defective item like they have been. Quality Control needs Quality Control to make sure these defective products don't leave the factory.

    I've had this awesome file box for a few years now and noticed that one of the caps of the hinges has come off and the file box cannot stay closed when being carried. It does not appear that I've overloaded the file box, as it's always held the files I've stored and there is room to slide them around for accessibility, so I'm not sure what caused the part to pop off. I've reached out to customer support for assistance finding replacement caps. When I was looking at this, I'm finding that this is a common issue. Hopeful that Sterilite: a. has replacement parts readily available and, b. they improve the design for future file boxes! Aside from the part, I do like this box. I'd like to fix it and not have to buy a whole replacement. :)

    I bought this about year ago. I use it for filing paperwork for a small business. The hinge that holds it closed broke after a few months with very little use so I can no longer carry it by the handle on top.

    I bought this a month ago to carry all the paperwork for my father's Estate. When the hinge cap fell out, I didn't know what is was. When I realized what is was I didn't know where it was. So I came on this website and found how to get a replacement.

    The very first time I used it, both hinge tabs came out as I was carrying it across a parking lot, dumping small tubes of bead components everywhere. I spent over an hour picking them up, while dodging traffic. I have another file box that lost both hinge tabs, but that was over the course of 5 years! If I could get those little button hinge tabs, this purchase would not be a total waste.

    I've purchased 3 of these things. The first one because it's perfect for my job (alot of over the road sales), the other 2 for parts to replace. Specifically the latch (twice) and the plastic tab hinges (out of 6, im down to 1). I'm stubborn when I find a product I like, but its getting hard to justify purchasing a 4th one in the course of 6 months.
