Chatsworth 11794-712 Standard Swing Gate Wall Rack

Overview

The Chatsworth 11794-712 is a standard swing gate wall rack designed for secure, accessible mounting of network and IT equipment within a 25.7-inch width and 12.2-inch depth. This rack is ideal for environments where space is limited and frequent access to equipment is required, such as network closets, small server rooms, or behind-the-scenes installations in retail or hospitality settings. The swing-out gate design simplifies maintenance and cable management without requiring full rack removal.

Compatibility

This wall rack is designed to accommodate standard 19-inch rack-mountable equipment. It is compatible with a wide range of network switches, patch panels, small servers, and other IT infrastructure components that adhere to the 19-inch EIA-310 standard. Its depth accommodates most standard-depth equipment, but always verify specific device dimensions against the rack's 12.2-inch usable depth before installation.

Installation Notes

The rack must be mounted to a structurally sound wall capable of supporting the weight of the rack and its fully loaded equipment. Ensure mounting points align with wall studs or appropriate heavy-duty anchors for secure installation. The swing gate mechanism requires adequate clearance to open fully; confirm sufficient space is available in the installation area. Tools required typically include a stud finder, drill, appropriate drill bits, and a level.
