Here are five reasons why you should take a good look at the Dahle 20452 if you are in the market for a dependable, high capacity shredder.
1. Capacity. And when we say capacity, we mean capacity. As the largest shredder in Dahle s stable, the 20452 has the ability to handle an astounding 100 pages at a time. The powerful four HP motor drives a slip free gear and chain mechanism that is designed to run all day, every day to the tune of 2 tons of documents destroyed. That is probably a lot more shredding capacity than any but the biggest businesses will ever need, but if that kind of productivity is what you need, the 20452 is the machine for you.
2. Build. The 20452 is a rugged, all metal machine that is clearly built to give you years of faithful service. In order to make the process of shredding huge amounts of documents just a little bit easier, there are three handy work shelves included, and the well lit and color coded control panel makes the 20452 a very simple machine to operate.
3. Safety. When you are talking about a powerful machine like the 20452, safety is key. In this case, you can take that literally. The 20452 comes with a special locking mechanism that allows you to prevent the machine by being used (or even turned on) by anyone who is not authorized to do so. Safety features like this is just one of the reasons that Dahle is one of the leading manufacturers in the industry when it comes to shredder innovation.
4. Bin Size. A shredder with this kind of capacity needs to have a large enough bin that you are not running to empty it every 5 minutes or so. The 20452 takes care of that by giving you a very large 50 gallon shred bin. The process of emptying the well constructed wooden bin is made that much easier by rolling castors and handles. All you need to do is to slide the bin out and take the waste to its final destination. To make the process easier still, you can purchase some of Dahle s waste bin liners. That way, you can keep using the 20452 while you are emptying the bin.
5. Warranty. Dahle is well known in the shredder world for making some of the best cutting heads in existence. Instead of using a system of stacked knives like some of the others machines, the 20452 s cutting heads are matched and milled from solid bars of the best steel Germany has to offer. Dahle obviously to have a lot of faith in these remarkable cutting heads, because they are fully guaranteed for the life of the machine.
