A wall mounted IT enclosure is a secure and sturdy structure used to store and protect a variety of sensitive electrical and IT components. What distinguishes a wall mounted enclosure from other electrical enclosures and cabinets is, as the name suggests, its ability to attach to a wall.
This provides a protective shield for sensitive assets, ensuring security and safety while saving valuable floor space in an office or industrial production environment.
The purpose of a wall mounted enclosure is to provide security and privacy, alongside ease of access when needed. Due to their compact size, wall mounted enclosures are used in numerous industries, from retail shops, offices, and leisure centres to construction sites and factories.
How Are Wall Mounted Enclosures Made?
A wall mounted enclosure is a compact box that can be constructed of plastic, or sheet steel and often has doors and removable sides. The choice of material depends on the operating environment and the application, so please get in touch to discuss the best solution for your needs.
Most IT wall-mounted enclosures are fitted with safety glass doors in order to display the contents – and can be fully customised to meet the needs of the application and environment.
Our wall-mounted cabinets, such as the compact fiber-optic distributor, provide robust protection up to an IP66 rating. This ensures a defence against dust penetration and low-pressure water jets, keeping your critical equipment safe. The enclosures can be offered preconfigured with customisable solid ground plates, wall mounting bracket, and top and bottom punch rails so you can customise your installation to your needs and easily reposition the enclosure if necessary.
