Can the drawers be removed to more easily move the file cabinet up the stairs to the second floor?

I don't know/never tried it. I doubt you can remove the drawers as they work together -- you can't pull both drawers out at the same time/there is some kind of stop mechanism. Most file cabinets work like this/otherwise they would tip over easily. Ask the manufacturer.

I don't know -- I didn't try to get the drawers out. The delivery person put it in the room where I wanted it and I slid it into place before putting file folders in the drawers.

Yes you can. I totally rearranged the order of the drawers with 2 of them myself.

No, the drawers will not hold file folders. The desk itself is much smaller than I thought. I hit my knees all the time and I'm average height.

I've never had trouble getting the drawers to pull out - they move fairly easily. There is hardware with a loop handle that makes it easier to open the drawers.

Yes. My friend put it together and he said it was much more difficult that a 4 drawer filing cabinet. It is nice once it is done. As a woman, I never could have done it.

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.

You would need a different model because the slides for the drawers are pre-made and there is a piece of wood separating the space for the drawers from the space for the doors. You might be able to rearrange everything but the cost and effort would not be worth it.

No it's not possible to move the shelves. They get screwed into pre drilled holes.

Yes, the drawers are removable. If you pull out the drawers, there is a screw on each rail that holds the drawers in place. Remove the screws and give the underside of the drawer a light upwards tap, and the drawer should pop right off the rail.

No, the drawers are not quite deep enough. The tabs make the file folder too tall.

if there is not a drawer above the door. IE the door goes the fill length of the cabinet you could take it off the hinges and mount the door to the pullout.

It will depend on how much weight you have in the drawers above the one you are trying to remove. I have found that it doesn't take much weight for the structure to "bow".

Yes you can move the shelf up. I think if you took it right out it would be very wobbly.

the cabinet is too heavy for a wall mount. The drawers are not easily removed.

No, not easily. You would have to force it. It is possible to snip off the drawer stoppers though.

Yes, each one of the drawers can be removed. My suggestion is to start on the top drawers as the bottom drawers usually have more weight put in them by the customer. In my case, doing that seems to make the cabinet more stable.

You should make sure that heavier files are in the bottom drawer. To be safe, anchor cabinet to wall or piece of furniture next to it.
