ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus for the suspension filing of sheet articles having perforations extending along their upper edges, of the type including a pair of spaced, parallel guide rails and a plurality of suspension carriages extend- ing between and movably mounted on the guide rails, sus- pension compartments being defined between adjacent car- riages. A system maintains each suspension carriage parallel to itself during its movement along the guide rails; each suspension rack consists of a main bar fitted with carrier pins for the sheet articles and end flanges normal to the main bar and extending along the respective guide rails; a coupling lever and a coupling lug are mounted on the end flange at the same end of each suspension carriage, with the coupling lever of a carriage removably engaging the lug of the rearwardly-adjacent carriage to retain the associated compartment in the closed condition; the rearmost lug being stationsy; the system further includes a locking device mounted at the same end as said latching levers but only on the frontmost suspension carriage, said locking device including a lever operated, spring-biased plunger engageable with anyone of two holes longitudinally spaced along the same guide rail at a location to lock the frontmost carriage in either an intermediate position or a fully-open position. The handles of the coupling levers and of the locking lever extend along- side of the bars of the respective suspension carriage for ease in their selective operation. Manipulation of the sus- pension carriages to select a specific suspension compartment can be effected with a single hand
