Middle Atlantic Pair of Side Panels Fits MRK 2431 & WRK-24-32 Black Finish - SPN-24-312

Middle Atlantic SPN-24-312 Universal Side Panels for 24RU Rack Enclosures

Overview

The Middle Atlantic SPN-24-312 are full-height steel side panels sold as a pair, designed to enclose open-frame 24RU rack enclosures in deployments where cable management, aesthetics, or physical access control require a closed-cabinet profile. Each panel is finished in black powder coat and mounts tool-free via a lift on/off mechanism — no screws to lose on the data center floor. The recessed lift handles keep the profile clean and prevent snagging on adjacent runs. An optional user-installed key lock is supported if the panels need to be secured against casual access. Each panel adds 5/8 inch to the overall width of the enclosure, so verify your rack row spacing before installing in tight equipment rooms. At 45 lbs per pair, these are substantial steel panels — factor that into any wall-mount or overhead-rail enclosure load calculation. Backed by a lifetime manufacturer warranty.

Compatibility

The SPN-24-312 fits Middle Atlantic Middle Atlantic enclosure series built to the 24RU / 31–32-inch depth envelope: specifically the MRK-2431 and WRK-24-32, and the broader WRK, MRK, VMRK, and VRK series enclosures sharing that depth range. If your enclosure is outside the 31–32-inch depth range or is not in one of these four series, confirm fitment against your enclosure's model number before ordering — Middle Atlantic depth suffixes directly encode the compatible panel SKU. For other rack enclosure accessories and rack accessories, verify series and depth compatibility as a pair.

Installation Notes

Installation is tool-free for the panels themselves — the lift on/off design seats and removes without hardware. If adding the optional key lock, standard user-installation applies; no tools or torque specs are specified in the source documentation. Plan for the 5/8-inch width addition per panel (total 1-1/4 inches added to enclosure width) when positioning the enclosure in a row or against a wall. The 48.06-inch panel height and 31.02-inch panel width are fixed — these are not field-trimmable.
