Defective GSA-Approved Security Filing Cabinets.

After initially receiving GSA approval, a number of security containers have been identified that require either the removal of the GSA approval label or must be repaired to eliminate a security hazard.

A. Art Metal Products Inc. The GSA approval label must be removed from all two and four drawer, Class 5 security filing cabinets made by the Art Metal Products Inc. These containers shall not be used for storage of classified material.

B. Hamilton Products Group, Inc. Four and five drawer, Class 6 security filing cabinets made by this manufacturer prior to July 1988 are subject to defects. The defects allow the control drawer to be locked while another drawer is open. These cabinets must be checked to ensure the cabinet cannot be locked with other drawers open, without exerting excessive force on the control drawer handle. If it is possible to lock the cabinet with less than 10 foot-pounds of torque, a modification to the cabinet is required. Security officers that determine it is necessary to retrofit a container must contact a local locksmith for repairs. Cabinets that are found to allow the locking but are not repaired shall have the GSA-Approved label removed.
