Frequently Asked Questions

Foolscap is slightly taller and wider than A4 (about 330 × 200mm versus 297 × 210mm). It was the standard NZ office size for decades, so a lot of older filing cabinets, suspension frames and lateral systems are still built for it. If you're starting fresh, A4 is the sensible default — every printer, scanner and folder on the market fits it. If you're topping up an existing system, check what your cabinet was built for before ordering.

A standard 75–80mm lever arch file holds around 500 sheets of 80gsm paper comfortably — call it 400 if you've got a lot of dividers and pockets in there. Going past that puts strain on the lever mechanism and makes it harder to flip pages. If you're regularly maxing them out, switch to a 4-ring binder or split the project across two files.

Copysafe pockets (also called clear pockets or sheet protectors) are heavier than standard L-shape pockets and are designed not to lift toner off photocopies or laser prints. If you're filing originals, certificates, training material or anything customer-facing, copysafe is worth the extra few cents per sheet. For day-to-day printouts, plain L-pockets are fine.

If you've got drawers and a few hundred files, suspension files in a normal cabinet are fine. Once you're past about 1,000 active files — typical for medical practices, accounting firms, schools and law firms — lateral filing (Codafile or Filecorp) is faster to retrieve from and uses roughly half the floor space. Codafile and Filecorp aren't cross-compatible, so pick one and stick with it. Both ranges are stocked here in full.

Filing & Storage at Discount Office

If you've ever lost half a morning hunting for a contract or last quarter's invoices, you know why filing matters. Our Filing & Storage range covers the day-to-day stuff every NZ office burns through — lever arch files, manilla folders, copysafe pockets, ring binders, indices and clipboards — alongside the bigger gear like suspension file frames, archive cartons and full lateral filing systems from Codafile and Filecorp.

Most products ship from our Auckland warehouse or that of our suppliers across NZ. Most orders ship the same or next business day, with free delivery on orders over $30 nationwide.

Lever arch files & ring binders

The workhorses. Lever arch files in A4 and Foolscap from FM, Marbig and Esselte handle 75–80mm of paper without the levers giving out after a year. If you cycle through covers a lot, the FM Overlay 2/26 ring binders let you swap the spine and front insert in seconds — handy for course manuals, SOP folders and anything that needs to look tidy on a meeting-room shelf.

Manilla folders, pockets & suspension files

For day-to-day filing inside a cabinet or drawer, stick with manilla folders (the FM Kraft 100-pack is the most-ordered SKU in this category) and suspension files like the FM Crystalfile range. Pair them with A4 copysafe pockets to keep originals, certificates and anything you don't want hole-punched in good shape.

Archive boxes & long-term storage

When records have to live on for 7 years (IRD), 10 years (employment), or "forever, just in case", archive boxes with hinged lids are the cheap, stackable answer. We stock both A4 and Foolscap sizes in white and kraft, plus the standard FM storage box that fits straight onto Lundia and Mitre 10 shelving.

Codafile & Filecorp lateral filing systems

If you run a clinic, accounting practice, law firm or anywhere with thousands of client files, lateral filing is faster than vertical drawers and uses far less floor space. We carry the full Codafile and Filecorp ranges — standard files, end-tab labels, fasteners, pockets and the colour-coded alpha/numeric label sets to match. Not sure which system to standardise on? Talk to our team — we'll usually save you money by mixing components rather than buying a packaged kit.
