Once assembled, you can start mounting your 19 - inch wide equipment like patch panels, routers, etc. on it.

To maintain the rack, you can periodically wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth. The smooth black powder epoxy finish is durable, but try to avoid scratching it as much as possible. If there are any signs of rust or damage, address them promptly to ensure the rack's long - term performance.
