Middle Atlantic VWM-PD-6-36K-PW 6RU Vertical Wall Mount Rack with Plexi Door
Overview
The VWM-PD-6-36K-PW is a 6-rack-unit vertical wall mount rack from the Middle Atlantic rack and enclosure line, built for small AV and security equipment deployments where floor space is unavailable and a dedicated equipment room isn't justified. The plexi door keeps gear visible at a glance without opening the enclosure — useful in shared spaces where staff need to confirm indicator lights without touching the equipment. At 36 inches tall with 27.8 inches of usable depth, it accommodates shallow NVRs, access control panels, and patch equipment that would otherwise sit unsecured on a shelf. Steel construction with a putty wrinkle powder coat finish gives it the durability to stay in-spec in light commercial environments. TAA compliant and UL Listed — both matter if you're deploying into a government facility or a contract that requires Buy American compliance.
Compatibility
Accepts standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment using 10-32 threaded rack rails and cage nut mounting — the two most common fastener formats in commercial NVR, networking, and access control equipment. The 27.8-inch usable depth handles most 1U and 2U appliances; verify your deepest unit against that figure before ordering, as some high-density switches and UPS units exceed it. Forward Compatible design means it accepts Middle Atlantic accessories and panels from the broader VWM family. The 150 lb UL-rated load capacity is sufficient for fully populated 6RU configurations — a mix of NVR, PoE switch, and patch panel won't approach that ceiling in a typical small-site security system install. Swing handle (25mm x 150mm) provides a consistent grip for service access.
Installation Notes
Wall mounting requires a structural surface capable of supporting the rack's 70.4 lb product weight plus up to 150 lbs of equipment load — verify stud spacing and fastener rating before install. Shipping weight is 80 lbs; plan for two-person handling. Putty wrinkle powder coat finish; confirm color match against existing enclosures on site. GREENGUARD certified for low chemical emissions — relevant for school or healthcare installs with indoor air quality requirements. Made in the USA (Federal Ops Country of Origin: USA).
