StarTech.com22U Server Rack Cabinet with secure locking door - 4 Post Adjustable Depth (5.5" to 28.7") - 1768 lb capacity - 19 inch Portable Network Equipment Enclosure on wheels/casters (RK2236BKF)

I was very pleased when my Server Rack arrived, as it exceeded my expectations. The rack is solid and relatively easy to put together. My rack mount servers fit in perfectly without any issues or special adjustments to the rack.I did have a few minor issues with installation, and hopefully these stories will help someone:First, the phillips screwdriver provided (I didn't even realize it came with one, so bonus) was more of a sharp tip instead of a stubby tip; this meant my personal screwdrivers worked better for most of the screws used in installation.Second, the bottom tray pieces were extremely difficult put in, as those particular holes were not pre-threaded. This meant forcing the screws to thread metal. Additionally, I had to move the rack-stand bars out of the way to ensure I could get enough force on them.Third, the top cover panel didn't quite screw down properly all around; one corner was always off. I ended up taking a Dremel to one of the screw holes on the rear side, opening it up enough for the screw to fit properly. I believe at most it was 1/8" I ended up grinding off. Fortunately, the screw covers it up, so it's not even visible.Lastly, There was a small plastic protection film on the key-turn portion of the lock (just the little circle). At first I thought it was just some brushed blue metal to give it a neat look, but I started scraping it off after using it. I prefer to remove all the protective plastic once I get an item in place - this one however required me to disassemble the lock to adequately remove the sealant. This was because the seal covered the sides of the lock as well, which were covered by the handle. This wasn't overly difficult to do, but someone unfamiliar with basic locks might have some difficulty removing this.If you read all of that, it sounds like I ran into a lot of problems - but realistically they were all very easy to solve and didn't detract from the overall quality of the server rack. After minor installation hiccups everything is working great and my servers are happy to be finally sitting in a rack where they belong.

With a number of my network cages that find themselves locked away in a closet, I'm ok with working with cabinets that are on the lower end of the cost spectrum. They tend to be a bit flimsy but again, they are in a closet not getting banged on. The scenario I purchased this one for is an undesired location, partially out in the open on a stage in a gym of a high school. I needed something that could take a random hit from a game of dodge ball and be secure to keep students from having the ability to mess with the hardware inside. The construction of this cabinet I think will be capable of withstanding some abuse. I would have preferred a metal mesh door like the back door vs glass, but I couldn't find one for this size. Came well packaged and there were no damaged parts. Assembly went pretty smooth. I think the only thing that I would have liked to seen was the screws being in their own bags with some kind of label. I was able to do that on my own based on the manual parts list and the screw counts, but would have saved time. Overall satisfied with this purchase and feel it was worth the extra expense.

The shipping and setup of the cabinet were relatively easy. With the side panels and doors off of the cabinet it's an easy two-person lift. Otherwise just roll it into place and start racking up your gear. I'm very pleased with the fit and finish of this cabinet and would recommend it to anyone.

When my shippment arrived the box was literally falling apart with gaping holes in it. I was amazed that none of the parts were missing. I question whether I recieved a package that was previously shipped and returned. One of the corners of the cabinet door was damaged with a slight bend. But I was able to bend it back to the point that it was pretty much unnoticeable. I purchased it for work and needed to install it right away so I decided to keep it rather than going through the trouble shipping it back and ordering another unit.I am very satisfied with the construction and sturdiness. My only complaint is that the door locks are plastic and a little on the cheap side. The finish seems solid as well. There were no significant scratches or marks which is a miracle considering most of the parts weren't wrapped and the parts were totally loose and moving around inside the packaging.The assembly was straight forward. All the parts fit together well. It came with the required tools (aside from screw drivers) but I used a cordless drill and had the appropriate torx bits which made it a bit easier and faster.I should also mention that I purchased the knock-down rack because I needed to assemble it in a tight server closet with a door that is too narrow to fit a pre-assembled rack cabinet. I assembled most of the cabinet outside the closet and then did the final assembly inside the closet with limited space. Worked like a charm....

I'm a retired Network Operations Chief for a Gov't agency. This is one of the best racks I've seen for purchase. The quality is outstanding. It arrived on two pallets and it was simple to assemble. The rack is very sturdy and all the vertical mounts and horizontal braces fit perfectly, no rattling. It came as advertised and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality rack. I little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. I'd do it again.
