Each of the drawers can be divided to give 2 sections. There are a few dividers
molded into the back frame, but nowhere enough to divide all the drawers. I
would think you make more dividers from card stock or heavy posterboard
(thereby yielding a maximum of 128 storage slots).

Akro-Mils 64 Drawer Storage Center, model 10764

Is this a new model, or have I just missed noticing it before ?

Ray

These storage cabinets are working out much better than I expected. I have five
of them mounted to a piece of plywood (behind a door) with room for five more.
At 64 drawers each (subdividable to 2 sections each), that gives me upwards of
1200+ mini storage bins on wall space that was previously unused. I have two+
similar places that I can mount these.

They also sell the same form factor (interchangeable mounting screw patterns on
the back) in 44 drawers (32 small and 12 large) and 24 drawers (all large)
styles. The three different styles are color coded: blue for 64, red for 44 and
black for 24. The local WM is sold out, so I'm going to check other stores to
finish the wall space.

To subdivide the small drawers, I cut up the cardboard from tissue or cereal
boxes to 1 15/16 x 1 1/4. Makes a perfect divider.
