- Inside Pocket Dimensions: 9-3/4" x 12-1/2"

Always verify product dimensions before purchasing to match your document and storage needs.
Size Selection Guidelines
Select a holder with inside dimensions larger than your paper size to avoid tight fits. Consider storage constraints and handling frequency.
Rules of Thumb
| Use Case | Additional Width | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Single sheet or sign holder | +1/8" (0.125") | Minimal extra space for one sheet. |
| Up to 25 sheets | +1/4" (0.25") | Space for moderate document stacks. |
| Up to 50 sheets | +1/2" (0.50") | Accommodates thicker stacks. |
| Frequent insertion/removal | +1" (1.00") | Easy access for regular handling. |
| Large or bulky items | Expandable gussets | Extra room with side gussets for oversized items. |
Key Questions for Selection
- Paper/Item Size: What are the dimensions of the largest item to be stored?
- Quantity: How many sheets or items will the holder contain?
- Storage Method: Will the holder be hung, or must it fit in a drawer or box?
- Handling Frequency: How often will items be inserted or removed?
Additional Considerations
- Paper Behavior: Frequently handled papers may wrinkle and puff up, taking more space than expected.
- Storage Fit: Always check the outer dimensions for drawer or box compatibility.
- For Frequent Access:
- Use a holder at least 1" larger than documents.
- Choose a long-side opening for easier access.
- Opt for expandable gusset holders when storing thicker stacks.
