Kolor-Lok™ Folder without Pocket, Item 823

Versatility in Your Office Filing System

The Kolor-Lok™ file folder system was originally designed to work with first and last names as its primary indexes, but it can be easily customized to utilize its unique color-coded system with other identifiers like personal account and phone numbers. Let AADS show you how Kolor-Lok™ can be used for office organizing.

High-Quality Color Coded Filing

Kolor-Lok™ file folders are sturdy. 14-point, 185 base weight manila folders will hold up to heavy use in the busiest office filing system. Kolor-Lok™ office filing folders last longer than similar looking 11-point folders. Our folders have reinforced edges and end tabs that provide strength and durability where it is needed most. All Kolor-Lok™ folders can be customized to further improve the efficiency of locating file contents.

Eliminate Alphabetizing in Your Office Filing System

How many versions of the alphabet are in your filing system? We’ve all had experiences where someone’s interpretation of the alphabet in a filing system has resulted in misfiles or lost files. The Kolor-Lok™ system completely eliminates that problem because there is NO alphabetizing! By using colors instead of letters, your filing system is significantly more efficient.

Studies show that humans can recognize color in 1/1000 of a second. Kolor-Lok™ leverages your natural ability to recognize color. It is more efficient than alphabetic or numeric office filing. To file in the Kolor-Lok™ System, you only need to remember two things:

• Alpha labels represent a person’s last name
• Colored folders represent a person’s first name

Increase Filing Speed and Save Time

The Kolor-Lok™ system enables you to quickly look within one small subset – eliminating the majority of your file folders within seconds. Scanning this small subset is twice as fast as searching alphabetically or numerically. Re-filing is considerably faster as well; just replace your file folders in the front of the appropriate alpha and color section.

Easily Filter Inactive Office Files

By replacing your folders in front of their section, your most used files will naturally gravitate towards the front. You can further differentiate office folder usage by applying a year label to show either when a folder was created or when it was last used.

Avoid Misfiles and Lost Records

You can quickly scan your entire section of office files and look for misfiled records. Simply look across your files and check if the colors within each section match - misfiled folders will be easy to spot. Finding files around the office is easy as well. By using the first name color guide, you will eliminate 90% of the folders you sort through just by knowing the individual’s first name.
