StarTech 15U 2-Post Wall Mount Open Frame Rack, 19in, 200lb (RK15WALLOA)

This thing is a tank! At first I was disappointed it doesn't have any vertical rails in the rear, but if assembled properly, you really don't need them. Assembly isn't difficult, but it took longer than I'd have expected. Fortunately, I got the exact depth needed. I do low-voltage work on the side, something I've done for more than a decade. I've installed dozens of different wall-mount cabinets and racks, from 2U racks up to 26U cabinets. This was far easier to assemble and more logical than most. It gives depth flexibility, everything you really need comes in the bags. I had enough capture nuts and hardware to mount my equipment and shelves. This is probably more than what your average person needs, but it fits my QNAP NAS, Unifi switches and UCK, patch panel, CCTV DVR, and Fortigate nicely. Initially I thought I would've liked something height-adjustable, but this was the perfect height for me. Very sturdy. Very heavy. Very well-finished. Exceptional bang for the buck. Highly recommend this product!

I recently installed this wall-mounted 2-post rack in a small equipment room, and I’ve been extremely pleased with the build quality and usability. It’s lightweight enough for a single technician to mount without assistance, yet once installed, it feels rock-solid and more than capable of supporting a full load of gear. In my setup, I’ve mounted four 24-port patch panels, two 48-port switches, and a rack shelf holding various devices, including Meraki appliances and an Intel NUC. The rack handles all of this without any sagging or flexing, and cable management has been straightforward thanks to the open-frame design. The alignment of the rails is precise, which made it easy to mount hardware without any fuss. Standard rack screws fit perfectly, and all equipment is securely held in place. The spacing is also ideal for access and airflow, especially important in tighter network closets. Overall, this rack is a great value. Whether you're building out a small IDF, a remote site, or even a home lab with enterprise-grade gear, this is a dependable, technician-friendly option that doesn’t compromise on quality or ease of installation. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase it again.

Model: 12U Heavy Duty Wall Mount Rack Packaging for delivery: Exceptional (all pieces in perfect shape) Assembly instructions: Sufficient (read through first and match fasteners by count since the bags aren’t labeled) Assembly difficulty: Easy (everything fit together perfectly) Quality: TOP NOTCH. Constructed of heavy sheet steel. All screw holes tapped perfectly. (You can screw in with just your fingers!) Fit was perfect. Summary: I looked at lower cost alternatives and it seemed that their quality might be sketchy. But I wasn’t sure that this was going to be worth the money; IT IS! It even comes with all the cage bolts and screws needed for all 12 slots. Bravo to StarTech for this impeccably designed and executed product!

Easy assembly, more than enough included mounting hardware. Didn't notice the adjustable size until after I ordered. It was nice being able to set the depth to 14" (depth of the shelf it's on). This one is for our home network but, contemplating another couple 12u to hold some of my audio equipment (synths, mixers, etc). Sturdy freestanding, more sturdy if you are able to run a couple of large screws into the wall.

The value of this rack is outstanding. It is basic enough to put together in just a few minutes, but strong enough to feel like a true enterprise rack. I love the options they have for different total capacities. I went with the 12U model given I have only 4U worth of equipment at the moment, maybe expanding to 6U total. Nonetheless, this thing is now loaded up with equipment and doesn't move an inch. It's worth noting that mounting hardware isn't included, but I used some exterior screws with a few washers and it isn't moving at all.

Fantastic rack. Very easy to extend and very sturdy. I'm knocking off 1 star because it doesn't come with any recommendations for mounting hardware; it simply says "use appropriate hardware." Their excuse is "Unfortunately with any of our wall mount racks we are not able to provide specific bolts as each customer setup can vary." I think that is quite weak. It is certainly possible to provide some recommendations based upon the maximum capacity of the rack. At the _very least_ they could provide a list of bolt sizes that fit the mounting holes. For others with the same problem, here's what I did: 1. 4x 1/4x2" 2. 12x 1/4" washers 3. 8x 1/4" nuts 4. 4x 1/4x1/2" nylon spacers 5. Sheet of 66"x36" 1/4" plywood 6. Install bolts from the back of the plywood with a washer on each side. Affix bolt with 1 nut and some loctite 7. Mount plywood to wall with some general 2" construction screws 8. Put nylon spacers on the bolts 9. Affixed rack to the bolts with remaining washers and nuts It's not going to come down.

Needed additional space in network rack - selected the 8U depth adjustable rack. This thing is solidly built, very sturdy and easily adjusts the dept to allow for a variety of most common devices. The open top, sides and bottom allow for easy cable management, access and fan-less ventilation. My rack arrives pre-assembled, with only needing to remove the 16 bolts to extend the depth and inset the cage nuts. Only considerations / slight cons: My rack did not have markings for the U positions as others have shown. Not an issue as just did quick marks with marker to ease installation. The cage nuts that came with it were not the best and had several occasions of the cage nut popping out while installing component. Also didn't notice cage nuts and bolts are M5 rather than M6 (which is a bit more common) until was missing 3 bolts and attempted to use cage bolts I already had, after lots of cussing discovered my old rack used all M6 cage nuts and bolts. But minor considerations for a very reasonably priced and sturdy wall mount rack. Be sure use solid 1/4" lag crews (not included) into studs, or if stud alignment is off (like mine was) a good piece of plywood backer which is attached to the studs.

This is a good rack for custom builds. If you have limited space and need a rack solution that gives you flexibility, this is your clown. I build a network rack on a shelf in a closet and this thing thing worked perfectly. Because it is adjustable, you get a custom look. Lots of room in the rear for cables and wall jacks. I got my Gateway, Switch, Power Strip, UPS and Security Cameras NVR neatly inside. Looks pro and has good ventilation. This rack is well worth the price.

Well made! very sturdy even without a back post, the adjustment bolts can be a little tricky to put in if just doing solo assembly, but very well connected once together. changing the positioning isn't simple, but that's not a bad thing (nice and secure with 3 bolts on each connection point on the join)

Ottimo rack. Qualitativamente molto ben fatto e molto robusto. Viterie in dotazione di qualità.

This rack was perfect for upgrading a network install which had been crammed into a cupboard far too shallow to take a decent sized cabinet. This rack wastes zero space and having the sides open means easy access; I was afraid it might be a bit wobbly given the lack of bracing but needn't have worried as this is a very sturdy (and very well finished) rack indeed. No sharp edges anywhere; easy to assemble; decent sized holes for wall mounting; adjustable to the precise depth required - very impressed.

Great! It was handy to be able to change the depth, good quality
