Can this be collapsed then expanded any hung, contents still inside on a need to work basis? Thanks

I just gave it a try and yes it can be folded back up with contents inside. I didn't notice this till now but there is a bungee strap that is built in at the top to hold things together when folded up. I have some non-conforming bigger than letter size items sticking out of the pockets and it still folds up but keep in mind either way that there is no cover over the top. If it were to get upside down your papers are coming out.

Yes. My folders are not "stuffed", but I have no problem with portability of the entire folders-in-pockets set up.

No... You need something more flexible for that. This must be pulled from the bottom and each section locked in one by one in order to be serviceable. We had a narrow opening and the existing surround makes it work for us. If I were pre planning in construction, no way would I purchase it. Unwieldy.

Yes and no. The button will collapse it, but you have to push it down into the base so that it will stay folded.

Not if leaned vertically. You would need to hang it on some nails for it to stay open. If leaned horizontally, it does stay open w/o any help.

It is not designed to be opened. With the right tools it may be possible to open and reassemble.

i haven't tried that. I doubt it. There is not enough height. It won't be convienent any way, because its not quick and easy to close.

Probably - you'd have to close off the "door", but you could likely use the spindles provided. It doesn't appear structural, but I'm not a designer/engineer.

It depends on how well you secure it. If its half empty and you're not careful about how its tied down, yes. If you tuck and fold it, no problem at all.

Not really. I don't think it was designed to collapse but, it could be folded down a little.

No that shouldn't be a problem. It is not a soft close but one that you have to push closed. So it will also stay open in the up position which is nice.

Not in my opinion. It has been up since we assembled it. I suppose you could take it apart, but it is not "collapsible".

I would not recommend this product for that purpose. It works great for its intentional design, but it does not truly lock down from opening on the inside.

Yes, they can. Make sure not to fill the container all the way to the edge but leave some space for the contents to contract & expand

Yes, except for the expansion portion. Of course if it is expanded something in it will be holding up the expanded portion. Great,quality item!

I would say yes to this. You would have to remove the two support boards that you insert when you first put it together. I've not tried to collapse mine but I'm sure it would fold back up. The brackets just slip over and under the door so that wouldn't be a problem. When you take it out of the package it opens up like an accordion so I'm sure it would close back up similarly. It comes as one piece except for the brackets and the 2 supports that you have to insert.

Not if you want to do a through job since it does not completely disassemble. You should be able to easily reach all interior portions which is not really possible. Right now I've been filling it up with a bleach and water mix after several uses to kill bacteria that could form near top inside

It does not expand. Height raises to 6.25 x 11. I use 3 extenders. It is able to fit 2 stackable legal folder drawers.
