Great cabinet, period.
I've dealt with a few flat pack cabinets, and it's not my first rodeo with Sysracks. I'm pretty sure that they have upped their game in packaging; the box mine arrived in has padded corners and reinforced sides. All panels were padded in sheet foam to avoid contact with one another and the glass door was toward the middle of the stack, nice and safe. Everything arrived in one piece, no issues.I'm honestly a little mystified by reviews that complain about lack of instructions. It goes together in 20 minutes by mild application of some logic (cable entry brush plates go in the back) and some mild twisting of a cross tip screw driver. Bonus points if you check your progress with a carpenter's square, but it squares itself. Which part goes where is blindingly obvious from looking at the parts. If something looks like it might accept a bolt and a nut because you can see through it, that's where the bolt and nut go. I'm not a rocket surgeon but worked it out all on my own with zero fuss.Some hints and a few minor niggles not worth deducting a star over. Those little teardrop shaped rubber doodads that are rolling around in the shipping box and hiding in the crannies of the panels... you need those. They're responsible for making the side panels shut up. Once you pull them through their grommets, the side panels don't vibrate. The door... different story. There's a tiny bit of play between the lock bar and the frame member it engages with. The front door rattles. A little wad of electric tape or self stick felt solves it.I'm hanging mine, so I can't speak to whether or not the bolts for the casters are included. That leads me to my second niggle. Wall mounting an 18U cabinet and getting it level is never exactly fun, but it's a lot less un-fun when the manufacturer uses a French cleat type system rather than keyed holes. Sysracks chose to incorporate keyed holes, probably because of the amount of weight the cabinet is rated for. Sysracks would have gained cool points if they'd included a mounting template, but that's 5 minutes with the cardboard it came in, some painter's tape, and a sharpie.Mine's going onto a concrete wall in a narrow space, so unless I tapcon a ledger board on, it won't be a party at all to hang this beast solo, even with doors and panels stripped. Luckily, it does come with feet and casters, along with a generous accessory pack, so it can sit on the floor if I get tired of wrangling with the wall mount. Overall, this is a great cabinet with useful design features and a solid accessory pack. VERY pleased.

Needed an upgrade
I had been looking at this for awhile and it finally came today. It was pretty easy to put together but took me awhile to do it.Not sure where I messed up but the door sags a bit on the handle side.I really like the color. As far as locks go, they are cheap and easy to pick. If you’re looking for a secure rack, this ain’t it.I like how they included some shelves, fan, and a PDU. I don’t need the shelves or the PDU. The PDU is cheap and not that great.I have a fan intake that is a 3U that I put in the bottom, I didn’t notice but there seems to be a random screw welded to the bottom. I assume it’s for grounding. I wasn’t able to put it all the way at the bottom. I got the 27U but it’s more like 25 or 26.The top mounted fan is pretty quite so far.The biggest issue I have is the back panel. I don’t mind taking screws off to get back there but it’s only secured by 4 screws. Anytime I move it, it makes a noise that I find super annoying. It has holes for more screws but the rack doesn’t have the holes drilled for them.Also, with the 27U you can either do the casters or the feet. Can’t do both because the casters run into the feet. Not a big deal for me, but was just wanting to be able to roll it where I want and use the feet to level it all out.This is a rack I would definitely get again. It seems pretty good quality where it counts.

This enclosed rack is perfect for many ideas in my case i personal got it for set up and protect my Technics Sound System that for the most important have a lock so nobody can open it is you lock it is safe and you can see in the pictures is from top to bottom is full everything work perfect and I did couple of upgrades to it but for me is wonderful really recommended you can open the front that is a glass door the sides and from the back you can move it easily 🏆💯👍

Great Company
We had a issue with the fan in the rack after a year and half. I contacted Sysracks and they shipped a replacement fan for free. Great Customer Service.

Install caster wheels early.
Easy assembly. If you plan to have one of the included shelves near the bottom and plan to have the caster wheels, install the casters before installing shelves. Instructions have installing the casters after installing shelves. You will have a much easier time placing the bolts and nuts for the caster without the shelf in the way.

Good, sturdy enclosure with nice features.
We purchased the 22U model to hold both IT and AV equipment. We found it to be well made and sturdy. It has several features that sold us on it: ventilated doors and sides, removable sides, fans, and included trays and power strip. The real glass door adds security, along with the locking sides. Removable panels at the top and bottom give nice places for cable access. Something else that leaned us toward purchasing this enclosure was the mounting slots on the back--we felt like having holes/slots in the back of the rack itself was better than a bar that would act as a cleat. For us it worked much better, especially for a cabinet of this size. Like others, our side door latches were damaged in shipping, but Sysracks customer service was great to work with and sent us new ones immediately. We would definitely recommend them and this rack enclosure product.
