How to install Middle Atlantic DWR Series Pivoting Wall Rack

• Before you begin, plan your layout and confirm the wall structure where the DWR rack will be installed. Mark stud locations and ensure there is adequate clearance for the 26-inch depth and pivoting action. Have the required wall fasteners and mounting hardware ready as specified by Middle Atlantic for a secure install.
• Mount the rail system or mounting brackets per the included hardware, aligning with the wall studs to support the weight of loaded equipment. The Forward rack rail feature is designed to simplify this step, letting you position equipment on the rail first and then slide it into place for a secure engage-and-lock operation.
• Install any pre-mounted components or accessories using the tool-free options provided. Attach cable management accessories to channel data and power cables neatly, keeping bundles organized to promote airflow and ease of maintenance.
• Begin loading equipment from the bottom up to maintain center-of-gravity balance. Use standard 19-inch equipment in the 12 RU space, ensuring that heavier items are placed lower in the rack to minimize tipping risk during pivot operations.
• Pivot the rack open for wiring, then secure devices with the Lever Lock hardware. Close the pivot and verify that all latches engage fully and that doors or panels align flush with the rack frame. Perform a final test pull on integrated cables to ensure stability and proper routing.
