• Attach the hinges to the rack rails using the supplied hardware; tighten mounting screws evenly to avoid door binding and to ensure the door opens and closes with uniform resistance; verify that the hinge pins are secure and that there is no play.
• Test the door’s function and ventilation clearance by swinging it through a full range of motion, confirming that cables, PDUs, and other components do not obstruct the perforated area; verify that latches or catches engage securely and that the door remains stable during use.
