12U Network Rack - Enclosed Wall Mount Rack Kit Includes 2X 1U Shelves, Pre-Mounted Fan, Lockable Door & Hardware - 600mm Depth Fits All Your AV Gear

This is very sturdy and well made rack/cabinet. If you are looking for a nice easy network rack for your home or small office. Having the front door as a metal mesh was a selling point for me. I am not a fan of plexiglass doors. The sides are also metal mesh style. As others have noted, the side panels do not lock. In an enterprise environment this is more of a concern. In a home or small office this is less of a concern. However, people are correct that it makes zero sense to put a lock on the front and not the sides. The metal is high quality and a nice thicker gauge metal considering the price point. Airflow is great. All sides are able to breathe well. However, if you want to manage airflow by putting in blank panels to force air up, that likely is not as much of an issue with this unit. Overall, a great rack/cabinet at a decent price. Not perfect for all, but more than enough for the right uses. But, I’m pretty sure if you are looking for higher security rack/cabinet, you are likely shopping other places/brands. Last point, the pictures here on Amazon do not give a great reference to scale. It was bigger than I planned (Width/Depth overall). It still works for my needs and works well. But, I should have pulled out the tape measure to get a true representation of the size. Just make sure you understand what you are buying when it comes to size. All said and done, I would buy it again and recommend it to others.

Very easy to assemble and install. I was slightly worried it wouldn't be sturdy only being attached to the wall at the top, but it's very sturdy and worked really well for where I needed it to go. The instructions are also very on point, very clear and well done.

The rack itself when put together and mounted feels very sturdy and overall I'm happy with that. Some places that could use improvement though are the side panels, front door, and clearance in the front in general. I used the rack to mount my ubiquiti equipment to the wall in my garage which wasn't too hard (other than the hell on my wrists to get those lags in but if you have a drill attachment I'd bet it would be considerably easier). The back clearance is great but the front side is a very tight fit. I bought smaller patch cables that could bend 90 degrees to connect my patch ports, switch, and udm pro but even with the bend I find that I have to push the door in against the cables to lock it or the cables will just push the door open. I was definitely a bit more careless than I should have been and simply assembled this on my garage floor (so again my own fault) but the finish on the panels scuffed quite easily. If you care about that sort of thing then remember to put down a towel or tarp to protect the pieces on the ground as you assemble things. I saw a few reviews mention concern about the side panels not locking so I knew that going in (like them I do wish they would as it makes the front lock seem pointless) but I also found that the latching mechanisms are a bit hit or miss. Specifically the right panel seems to be a bit wonky sometimes when trying to latch it back in after removing that panel. I suspect its probably due to the tolerances not being super tight as I also had some issues getting the top on when assembling it. Overall though I'm pleased with it and would recommend it if you just want a simple deterrent from anyone messing with your networking equipment but aren't concerned about it being actually secure. If you're looking for something that is actually locked and can't be messed with you'll want something else for sure.

Nice rack. Perfect size for my application. Do note that this does not swing open from the back. So, when installing equipment, you have to remove the sides and access everything there. So if that is something you need, you won't want to get this particular rack.

I’ve used this brand a few times now and have no complaints. This particular unit “locks” on the door, but also has holes on the side panels so you can insert bolts to make it inaccessible if needed. I’ll be using this again.

This the first rack I've built for myself and it was a joyous experience. The instructions are hilarious while being well-written from an objective point of view. The installation went without a hitch. The always-on-when-powered fans are loud, and I'm hoping I won't really have to use them. I have a feeling some Noctuas might be in my future.

I spent almost $300 on a server rack. And apparently the manufacturer didn't think it made sense to spend $.25 on some screws for the cage nets. They also only included eight cage nuts. This is a 12 U rack which with 72 possible Cajun holes. And the manufacturer supplies eight. How cheap? I used to buy this product exclusively, not anymore. I hope it was worth it guys. I hope the two cents you saved justified the thousands of dollars in lost business for me alone.

Very sturdy. Some issues I have with it is it's slightly too skinny for many of the rail mounts I tried. Also the front door doesn't have enough clearance for normal power cables, but the door can be removed. The default fans are also slightly loud. I have been using it for about a year now and it's been great.

Fantastic network rack! Its very sturdy and heavy . I am loving it!
