File Drawer Catch Disabling Screw

Category: Storage cabinet, latch, office, workshop, other

Problem:I received a couple of file cabinets from my brother. They had about 6 inch deep drawers which were just right for storing items in my shop. However, as I was in and out of them often, I found the drawer catch to be annoying.

Action: I disabled the catch on each drawer with a screw that could be removed if I ever wanted to have the catch functional again.

Result: It works Great!
