While the shelf itself is of fixed length, the mounting brackets can be adjusted to proper depth. Which was pretty easy to do. 2 screws for each bracket (total 8 screws). Installing it in my rack was simple; probably took me an hour altogether. Though as you can see from my pics, I have full access from all sides. Might be more difficult to do in more enclosed racks. As you can see in the pics, I placed my tower server and other peripherals on the shelf. It's not flimsy, so I had no concerns if the shelf could support the weight or not. Review: Stupidly strong rack shelf - perfect IF you install it correctly - Writing this review after purchasing six of these over the years. I have a full size server rack that houses my home network and home theater gear. This is a very strong shelf. It's unlikely you'll ever put 175 pounds of stuff on this shelf unless you're using it for a non-standard purpose, such as storing bags of cement or bricks. I have two, 4U servers that are home-built, meaning they didn't come with rack rails. Though you can get generic rack rails, they never work correctly and are more trouble than they are worth. Those go on these shelves. I have a a Denon HT receiver/amp that weighs about 30 pounds. A regular, 2U rackmount shelf just bends and isn't safe. So that goes on one of these shelves too. There is a trick to installing these shelves in a rack and it helps big time if your rack has open sides like mine does. Only attach the front mounting ears to the shelf. You will need about 4U worth of space to slide the shelf into the rack with the front ears attached b/c the screws that hold the ears to the shelf stick out and won't clear the rack rails. You'll have to angle the shelf diagonally a little bit to slide it in. Loosely secure the front brackets to the rack rails. Loosely install the rear brackets on the shelf, leaving them loose enough to slide back and forth. Tighten the rear mounting ears to the rack rails. Tighten the rear brackets to the shelf. Now, tighten the front brackets. I recommend using a socket and socket wrench on the nut, while you hold the screw in place with a Philips screwdriver to tighten the brackets to the shelf. The brackets are what hold the shelf up. Tighten the snot out of the brackets and you'll never have a problem. The mounting ears are exactly 1U in height, meaning if you intend on mounting something directly underneath the shelf, you have to ensure the brackets don't sag downwards into the 1U space directly underneath it b/c it will interfere with whatever you're trying to slide into that space. Other than those quirks, these things are built like a tank. I've had 100 pound UPS's and servers that weighed almost that much on these shelves and they don't bend, break, creak or do anything but sit there and take it. Pre-pandemic these shelves were about 25% cheaper than they are now. But, everything has gone up in price. Welcome to the new reality, I guess. Highly recommend this rackmount shelf! ## Features - UNIVERSAL 19" FIT: This vented server rack mount shelf is designed to fit any 19in server rack and has a fixed surface depth of 27.56in (70cm), and an adjustable mounting depth range of 19.5-38in (50-97cm) for your data, networking or other equipment - MAXIMIZE VENTILIATION: The vented shelf ensures consistent airflow to effectively dissipate heat on servers; It also works great to keep your computer and AV equipment cool - HEAVY-DUTY & DURABLE DESIGN: Constructed with SPCC commercial cold-rolled steel, the sturdy IT-grade cabinet shelf ensures long term durability and supports a total weight load of 175lb (80kg) - VERSATILE FUNCTIONALITY: With a surface depth of 27.56in (70cm) and adjustable mounting depth range of 19.5-38in, this shelf can work with any 19in cabinet or equipment rack.

They adjust via slider cutouts and hardware to bolt them down. This can be seen in the product images. There should not be any cutting. The ends are important to these since the end clips are needed to attach them to the vertical adjustable bars inside server cabinet. If your cabinet interior is smaller than 19.5 (shouldn't be) or larger than these dimensions you may need to look for a different shelf. I have a larger cabinet but the vertical cabinet bars are adjusted to the depth of my servers and this shelf is adjusted to the same depth to attach properly. **Q: Will this fit my 2u height server?** A: This is a shelf and not rails for a for a rack server. The only question is whether it will hold the weight of what you want to put on it **Q: Could a 4U server without rail kit sit on top of this in an open rack?** A: Please do not take this as the official answer. It is pretty solid. And it is rated to 175 pounds. I have an old Mac Pro, 5 MacMinis, and a switch on mine. It isn't flexing at all. I have no concern about adding 5 more MacMinis. 175 pounds is a lot. Hopefully that helps. With all the weight you are putting on it, be sure you put the screws in tight. :) **Q: will it fit a 19wide by 19 deep rack** A: I have a 21” rack and it doesn’t fit, I’m going to have to extend it, mounting brackets don’t fit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy Duty Shelf - Easy to Put Together and Install *by G***. on December 6, 2024* Solid rack shelf.

Highly recommend this rackmount shelf! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to modify for 2-post rack *by B***K on June 12, 2012* The product description doesn't make it clear that this shelf is designed for 4-post racks only. You have to download the PDF manual from StarTech's website to confirm this. I ordered this shelf anyway for a 2-post rack, figuring I could modify it easily for a 2-poster. I own a number of other StarTech products (rack hardware, server enclosures, etc.), and I've been very impressed with StarTech's quality. I was equally impressed with the quality of this shelf. It's well-designed, well-built, and very strong. The shelf surface is welded to a "frame" that can hold significant weight. And as I estimated, the shelf was very easy to modify for my 2-post rack. I only had to drill three holes per side -- six total -- to mount the four included rack "ears" to the shelf frame using the included nuts/bolts. (I used existing "slots" for the fourth hole for each side.) It took me a total of 30 minutes to measure, drill, and clean up. Note that the shelf also comes with eight 10-32 rack screws for mounting into a rack. 10-32 threading is the most common for audio/video racks, but 12-24 is the standard for IT and telecom racks. Therefore, I had to supply my own 12-24 rack screws -- not a big deal since most purchasers of this shelf will already have their own rack screws to match their racks. ## Frequently Bought Together - StarTech.com 1U Adjustable Vented Server Rack Mount Shelf - 175lbs - 19.5 to 38in Adjustable Mounting Depth Universal Tray for 19" AV/ Network Equipment Rack - 27.5in Deep , TAA (ADJSHELF) - StarTech.com 4-Post 42U Mobile Open Frame Server Rack, 19in Network Rack with Wheels, Rolling Rack for Computer/AV/Data/IT Equipment - Casters, Leveling Feet or Floor Mounting (4POSTRACK42) - StarTech.com 2U Server Rack Shelf - Universal Vented Rack Mount Cantilever Tray for 19" Network Equipment Rack & Cabinet - Heavy Duty Steel - Weight Capacity 50lb/23kg - 16" Deep Shelf, TAA --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2575805-startech-com-1u-adjustable-vented-server-rack-mount-shelf-175lbs](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2575805-startech-com-1u-adjustable-vented-server-rack-mount-shelf-175lbs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
