Middle Atlantic LACE-37 – 37-Space Vertical Lacer Strips

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic LACE-37 series of vertical lacer strips gives integrators a dedicated lacing point for cable management in 37-space racks. Each strip mounts vertically to rackrail brackets and is highly perforated, providing ample holes for cable ties along the full height of the rack. The family spans single strips and 6-piece contractor packs, in widths from 1 inch up to wide tie-post versions for heavier bundles. Strips adjust to fit within any Middle Atlantic enclosure and can be trimmed for shorter applications.

Product Description

Vertical lacer strips are the backbone of professional rack cable management: they give every cable bundle a structural anchor, keep service loops organized, and provide the strain relief that protects terminations over the life of the system. The LACE-37 series mounts vertically to rackrail brackets in 37-space racks, putting a continuous run of tie points alongside the rackrail where cables actually need support.

The strips are highly perforated, so cable ties can land exactly where the bundle requires rather than where a slot happens to be. They are also tapped for tie saddles, letting installers build reusable, serviceable lacing points instead of cinching ties directly around the bundle. Fit is flexible in both directions: the strips adjust to fit within any Middle Atlantic Products enclosure, and they can easily be cut down to smaller sizes when a project calls for partial-height lacing. The series covers multiple formats, including the 1-inch-wide LACE-37-1P 6-pack that accepts tie saddles, the 3.25-inch-wide LACE-37-OP with tie posts, and the 4.75-inch-wide LACE-37-OWP with tie posts, plus single-strip versions for smaller jobs. Contractor 6-packs keep per-strip cost down on multi-rack commercial AV installation work. Pair them with racks and accessories from our Middle Atlantic collection for a complete cable management plan.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Which racks are LACE-37 strips compatible with?
They mount vertically to rackrail brackets in 37-space racks and adjust to fit within any Middle Atlantic Products enclosure.

What is the difference between the variants?
The series spans single strips and 6-piece packs in several widths: 1-inch strips that accept tie saddles (LACE-37-1P), 3.25-inch strips with tie posts (LACE-37-OP), and 4.75-inch wide strips with tie posts (LACE-37-OWP). Choose width by bundle size and pack size by project scale.

Can the strips be shortened for a smaller rack section?
Yes. The strips can easily be cut down to smaller sizes when full 37-space coverage is not needed.

How do tie saddles improve AV integration?
Tapped tie-saddle points let installers create fixed, reusable anchor positions, so bundles can be re-dressed during service without re-engineering the lacing.

Why specify 6-packs?
Multi-rack commercial deployments typically lace both sides of every rack. The 6-piece contractor packs reduce per-strip cost and simplify procurement for larger installations.

What warranty and support apply?
LACE-37 strips are covered by Middle Atlantic's manufacturer warranty, and Creation Networks provides specification help and post-sale support for commercial projects.
