Safco Products Vertical Desktop Sorter - 11 Compartments
Take control of your work space clutter and quickly bring a sense of order and organization to your papers, folders and other documents.
Curved Shelf Edges
It may seem like a simple detail, but it's really nice. On a standard straight-front shelf, you might have to attempt to press-down and slide-forward a document that's drifted even slightly too far back in the compartment. With a curved cutaway along the front edge of each shelf, Safco's Desktop Sorter lets you easily grasp the letter-size document, folder, notebook or catalog you're after with greater ease.
Elevating Storage to Make Organization Simple
Your desktop gets cluttered. You're not alone, it happens to us all. With only a limited amount of real estate to spread out, maybe it's time to go up. That's where Safco's Vertical Desktop Sorter comes in. Featuring up to 11 compartments, this sorter lets you make the most of your truncated landscape by creating one convenient storage space on top of the other. Documents, file folders, notebooks and even tablet computers quickly go from piled-up-all-over to easily-accessible-right-in-one-place.

Getting Creative
Need to keep sheet music sorted in the choir room? What about shared drafting kits in the art studio? And the trays of tools and parts in the STEM lab? Safco's Vertical Desktop Sorter doesn't limit itself to just documents and you shouldn't either.

Simple Assembly - You Can Do It!
Gently Tap In Dowels
Start assembly by adding the dowels to the side panels.
Dip
each dowel
one at a time
into water to activate the adhesive coating, then
tap with a hammer
until the dowel is set down into the panel. The damp glue on the dowels can get a little messy and possibly leave a stain on hands or materials, so
wear a glove if you want to
and be cautious about touching other objects after you handle the dampened dowels.
Build Frame
The tops of the
dowels should be roughly even when installed and stick up slightly less than half a penny
.
(see the inset above)
Once they're all set, align the dowels on the side panels with the holes on the base and top panels and push down until they're fully seated.
Wait! -
Make sure the finished edges of the side, top and base panels all face the same direction!
Add Shelves
After the frame is assembled,
start sliding the shelves into the grooves
to set them in place. See the unfinished border around the outer edge of the frame? Make sure yours looks the same, if not,
you might still have a second to fix it before the glue sets
. Shelves will be difficult to rearrange after the backing board is applied, so maybe
test your configuration beforehand
if you plan on using less than all 10 shelf boards.
Fasten Backing
Grab your hammer again because it's time to start attaching the fiberboard backing. You'll be tapping nails along the edge to fix the board to the frame.
Nails should be evenly spaced about 4 - 6" inches apart.
Use the diagram in your assembly instructions to get an idea of spacing and don't hesitate to
grab your ruler or measuring tape
and just mark your spots with a pen or pencil before tapping in the nails. After the nails are in, you're done!
Nice work!
