LMS DataServer Rack Data Cabinet - 9U 450mm Deep Wall Mounted 19" Black Storage Rack for Computer Equipment at Home, Office, Server Room with Removable Panels, Lockable Front

I decided to get this 9U rack cabinet with some cautious optimism, because of some of the previous reviewers. The bottom line is simply, I’m glad I decided to grab it.One of the reasons I’m glad I grabbed this cabinet is the ease of assembly. You simply start by attaching the two front corners and the two rear corners (pay attention to illustration) to the base with two of the small screws per piece. After this, the top goes on the same exact way, with two small screws per corner bracket. Next is attaching the four pieces to which your equipment will mount, a.k.a, the racks, to the top and bottom of the cabinet with just two screws per piece. There are three different holes to mount the racks in which you can choose depending on the depth into the cabinet you need. After this, the back wall goes on via 6 screws, then the front glass door goes in via two rods on springs, which requires a simple pull/push from the angled pin on the backside of the door/inside of the door, depending on perspective. *Note, I didn’t understand what it meant by putting an “isolation column at the right bottom”, which I assume was referring to the white plastic/nylon spacer. There doesn’t appear to be a problem without whatever it means. Also, there are four screw holes that weren’t mentioned in the instructions that are located in each corner of the front. If the cabinet is out of square, the door won’t shut correctly, but getting the cabinet square and then adding a screw will set its position. Then just add the other screws to keep it locked in position.It’s actually quite sturdy once everything is put together. I’m not sure why other reviewers had negative experiences, as so far, everything is great. All I can say is I recommend it, and haven’t found any negatives worth noting. I’m happy as can be with it.

Ordered the flat pack version to get it into an awkward space. Took around 1 hour to build - fairly simple, and sturdy once built.Same kind of quality to other network cabs I've worked with. Arrived in good condition.Main possible downside is that the sides do not lock. Not an issue in my case, but be aware if you require security.

This is a lightweight server rack for lightweight equipment like networking equipment and lightweight servers and such. After everything is setup, it is sturdy and would be a good rack to hold lightweight rackmount gear.Don't expect to comfortably put heavy servers in here though. It is made out of lightweight materials and the back panel is so lightweight that it makes boing boing sound just holding it. My server is 2-3 inches too long to even fit in here. It's meant to be wall mounted and so the bottom is wobbly as well and doesn't have feet. There are no handles to hold it and lift the rack so just only put lightweight stuff in there.I didn't see any place to route wires into the rack. I'm not sure if the rectangle punch outs were for that or not.The front door also should remain closed mostly. I would not suggest trying to use with the glass door open because the glass door will be flopping around and don't want a free swinging glass panel in your room.Installation does take a bit of time because the instructions are not clear. The first step is to screw all the four posts into the top and bottom and the rest becomes obvious. I was confused about which direction the posts were supposed to face. I figured out that the lips on the pillars face inwards. There are extra holes on the rear pillars and so that was causing the confusion. The white "isolation column" which is just a plastic spacer did not make sense on where to put. I put it on the left against the instructions and it works but now I have to lock the door otherwise it will slide open.For installation, please take out our most comfortable screwdriver. The screws are self-tapping screws and require some force to push through. Perhaps a electric drill would make things easier but I didn't try. I did taking a screw out and putting it back and that was fine and it was able to tighten at the last turn.Overall, this is a very lightweight rack. It is perfect for storing and organizing lightweight rack mount gear but not for heavy duty stuff.

NOT the depth that is advertised, however the construction is 'okay'. Came with a couple of dents, but is otherwise sturdy

This cabinet could be more sturdy, but it's perfectly capable of holding network gear once assembled. The steel is a thinner gauge than some other cabinets, but when everything is bolted together, it gains a lot more structural integrity than any individual panel on its own.Could it be sturdier? Yes. Will it collapse from network gear being installed into it? No. Would it potentially have issues with some heavy gear, such as a server full of 3.5-in HDDs? Yes.I would not buy this as a server rack, but it's fine for network or other light to medium duty gear.
