Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf, 2 RU, 20.5"D, Anodized

Elevate your rack installations with the Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf, a precision-engineered solution that brings versatility, efficiency, and a clean, professional look to any standard 19" enclosure. Designed for flexibility in demanding environments—from broadcast rooms and recording studios to data centers and AV installations—the 2U shelf provides a sturdy home for a wide range of equipment without forcing you to modify or compromise your rack. The generous 20.5" depth accommodates deep devices, substantial cabling, and cooling hardware, while the anodized finish delivers durability and a sleek, consistent appearance across environments that demand reliability and long-term performance.

What truly sets the RSH system apart is its ability to integrate irregular or non-standard components into a standard rack through a custom-cut front opening. Each Custom Wide Shelf is engineered to be cut to a precise face opening that matches the front panel geometry of the mounted device. This creates a neat, framed installation where every edge aligns with the component, delivering a professional, high-quality look and reducing front-panel gaps that can collect dust or impede access. The result is a rack setup that not only looks polished but also functions more efficiently, with easier access to ports, controls, and ventilation.

Beyond fit and aesthetics, the Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf is built for practical, real-world use. Installers appreciate the straightforward mounting process, where standard 19" rails and hardware can secure the shelf, and the component itself sits flush with the rack face thanks to the dedicated cutout. The 2U height strikes a balance between maximizing vertical space and maintaining ample clearance for rear cabling and airflow. The 20.5" depth ensures you can accommodate bulkier power distribution units, multimedia interfaces, network devices, and other equipment that demand more room behind the front panel. In environments that demand tidy cable management, the wide shelf provides sufficient space to route cables neatly, reduce strain on connectors, and keep critical connections accessible for maintenance or upgrades.

As a centerpiece in a modular rack system, the anodized finish contributes to a professional aesthetic—resisting wear, fingerprints, and corrosion over time, while maintaining a bright, uniform appearance even after years of service. This makes the Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf an ideal choice for high-visibility rack installations where both form and function matter. Coupled with Middle Atlantic’s established ecosystem of accessories and rack-mounting solutions, this shelf can be paired with cable managers, blanking panels, and fan kits to optimize airflow, organization, and reliability. Whether you’re consolidating gear in a compact studio rack or expanding a data center cabinet, the RSH-based shelf delivers consistent performance, easy maintenance, and lasting value.

  • Precision-cut front opening for a perfect, foot-to-face fit. The Custom Wide Shelf is designed to be cut to match the exact face profile of the component being mounted, creating a clean, professional front panel line and making maintenance and access effortless.
  • 2U rack height enables efficient use of vertical space in standard 19" racks. This height is ideal for pairing with other 2U or 1U devices, ensuring you can stack modules cleanly without crowding or sacrificing service access.
  • Generous 20.5" depth supports deep equipment, robust cabling, and rear connections. The extended depth helps prevent cable strain and provides ample room for connectors, power cords, and airflow behind the front panel.
  • Durable anodized finish for long-term durability and a consistent appearance. The anodized surface resists wear and corrosion, maintaining a professional look in critical environments such as broadcast, control rooms, and production studios.
  • No modification required for standard 19" racks. Designed to work with typical rack rails and mounting hardware, the shelf installs quickly, keeps the installation tidy, and reduces downtime during upgrades or reconfigurations.

How to Install Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf, 2 RU, 20.5"D, Anodized

  • 1. Prepare the rack: Confirm there is at least 2U of available vertical space and a minimum 20.5" depth in your standard 19" enclosure. Ensure the rack rails are aligned and in good condition to support the shelf and attached devices.
  • 2. Gather mounting hardware: Use the rack screws and hardware recommended for your specific 19" rack system. The shelf is designed to work with standard hardware, so no custom adapters are required in most installations.
  • 3. Align the shelf with the rack: Slide the Custom Wide Shelf into the rack rails, positioning it so the custom front opening will align with the device’s front panel. Double-check that the opening will frame the device cleanly and that there is adequate clearance for cables behind the unit.
  • 4. Secure the shelf: Attach the shelf to the rack using the provided mounting holes or hardware. Tighten screws evenly to ensure the shelf sits squarely, avoiding any tilt that could impact equipment alignment or front-panel access.
  • 5. Install the component: Place the device into the front opening, ensuring its faceplate aligns with the cutout. Align mounting holes on the device with the shelf’s mounting points and secure it with appropriate screws so the front edge sits flush with the rack’s front.
  • 6. Route cables and verify airflow: Neatly route power, data, and interconnect cables behind the device. Use cable management accessories as needed to maintain breathability for cooling and to keep ports accessible. Power up the system and verify all connections function properly without strain on any connectors.
  • 7. Final check: Confirm the entire assembly is stable, the device breathes well in the rack environment, and there are no visible gaps around the front opening. Periodically inspect mounting hardware and cable management to preserve performance over time.

The shelves sag away from the wall overtime
Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 15.7in, Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 15.7in
Although the wood quality and finish of the shelf are clean and well-made, the main issue is that the shelves begin to sag over time while holding around 10 pounds, even though the product listing claims they can support up to 20 pounds. They may perform better on a brick wall, but on drywall you should be cautious. To fix the problem, I had to purchase floating shelf brackets for support, which solved the sagging issue. However, this defeats the purpose of the “floating” aesthetic. Since the shelf is in my bedroom, I can overlook it, but I personally wouldn’t install these in a common area if I wanted a clean floating look.

Looks nice, easy to install
Color: Rustic Brown, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
This shelf is lightweight, looks nice, and was easy to install. It comes with a little level to help you install it properly. There are plenty of mounting holes to choose from, so it is easy to screw it directly into a stud, or to just use holes that are convenient for you. It comes with a plethora of mounting hardware. I mounted mine a bit high up and chose to mount it upside down so that I wouldn't see the three screws that hold the shelf to the mounting bracket.
