Middle Atlantic VWM Door W/SOLID36H X 16DBLACK - VWM-SSD-3616-BW

Middle Atlantic VWM-SSD-3616-BW Solid Steel Wall-Mount Rack Door — 36H x 16D, Black

Overview

The Middle Atlantic VWM-SSD-3616-BW is a solid front door designed for Middle Atlantic VWM (Versatile Wall-Mount) rack enclosures configured at 36 inches tall with a 16-inch depth. If you're securing AV, networking, or security equipment in a wall-mount rack and need a clean, opaque panel — not a vented or glass-front option — this is the door that fits the bill. At 26.5 lbs of cold-rolled steel finished in black powder coat, it closes out the front of a VWM enclosure with no flex and no rattle.

TAA compliance is confirmed for this SKU, which matters for government, education, and federal contractor installations where Trade Agreements Act sourcing is a procurement requirement. The door also carries RoHS compliance under the REACH regulatory framework and meets TSCA standards — relevant for deployments with environmental materials restrictions.

Key Features

• Solid Steel Construction (26.5 lbs): This isn't a lightweight stamped panel — 26.5 lbs of steel means the door adds genuine rigidity to the enclosure front, resisting warping and providing real physical security over the rack contents. No glass, no mesh, no visibility from the outside.
• 36-Inch Height x 16-Inch Depth Fit: Dimensioned specifically for Middle Atlantic VWM enclosures at 36H x 16D (91.4 cm x 40.6 cm). Confirm your enclosure's height and depth before ordering — a 16D door will not fit a 12D or 20D rack.
• Black Powder Coat Finish: The VWM-SSD-3616-BW (often searched as VWM SSD 3616 BW) ships in black powder coat, matching standard Middle Atlantic rack coloring in most AV and security closet installations. Powder coat holds up to handling wear better than paint in high-traffic telecom rooms.
• TAA Compliant: Verified TAA compliant for this SKU, enabling use on federal and government contracts subject to Buy American and Trade Agreements Act requirements — a procurement checkbox that can determine bid eligibility.
• RoHS / REACH and TSCA Compliance: Materials meet RoHS under REACH and TSCA standards, supporting environmental compliance documentation for LEED projects or regulated facility deployments.

Integration & Compatibility

This door is designed specifically for the Middle Atlantic VWM series of wall-mount rack enclosures. It is sized for a 36-inch-tall, 16-inch-deep cabinet configuration. Before ordering, verify your VWM enclosure's exact height (in rack units or inches) and depth against Middle Atlantic's compatibility documentation — VWM enclosures come in multiple height and depth combinations, and doors are not interchangeable across sizes. If you're also specifying the enclosure itself, see the full range of rack and enclosure options for complementary hardware. For infrastructure planning in security or AV deployments, a PoE network switch and structured cabling inside the same wall-mount rack are common pairings. Consult rack accessories for side panels, rear doors, and cable management that complete the enclosure build-out.
