I've never used document cases, but I would suggest that you compare the 
risks, costs, and benefits of the cases versus acid-free folders.  At first 
blush, it appears you haven't really built a case for document cases - it 
sounds like a nice-to-have, but not a necessity.



I would be more concerned about protection from fire, water, vermin, and 
other environmental risks.  If the cases are of a grade that contribute 
significantly to that kind of protection, especially because you're storing 
them onsite, then I would say it's worth it.  If not, then it may be an 
unnecessary expense, and the money would be better spent as a down 
payment on a fire-rated cabinet.



Hope that helps.
