Product Overview
The Middle Atlantic FD-18 is an 18-space solid front door in a universal fit configuration, designed to enclose the front of standard rack enclosures for security, dust protection, and a finished appearance. The solid panel construction provides a clean facade without ventilation openings, making it appropriate for environments where airflow is managed through the rack sides or rear. It mounts directly to racks with standard front door mounting provisions. Available from Creation Networks.
Product Description
The FD-18 solid front door secures 18 rack spaces of equipment behind a steel panel, providing a barrier against unauthorized access, dust accumulation, and accidental contact with rack-mounted components. The solid construction blocks all front-face airflow, so this door is best suited to installations where thermal management relies on rear venting, side channels, or active cooling within the enclosure rather than front-to-rear airflow. The universal mounting design accommodates a range of rack widths and door attachment configurations, giving integrators flexibility when specifying front protection for existing rack builds. This door is commonly used in public-facing environments such as conference rooms, lobbies, and classrooms where rack equipment must be visually concealed and protected from casual contact. The steel construction and powder coat finish match Middle Atlantic rack aesthetics and provide durability in installed environments. Hinges allow the door to swing fully open for equipment access, and a latch mechanism keeps the door closed during normal operation.
