Rack accessories fit the empty spaces in a 19 inch rack, with shelves for gear that has no mounting ears and lockable drawers in 1U to 5U sizes for storage.
About Audio Rack Accessories
Rack accessories turn a bare rack frame into an organised, road-ready rig. Rack shelves let you load in gear that has no 19 inch mounting ears, while rack-mount drawers, available in 1U through 5U sizes, put unused rack spaces to work. The drawers look like a blanking panel from the front and are key lockable, making them handy for storing valuables, cables and small accessories. Blanking plates fill empty spaces for a clean finish, and patch panels bring your connections to the front of the rack.
Everything here is built to suit standard 19 inch racks with standard rack unit (RU) spacings, so it fits straight into our 19 inch audio racks, rack cases and rack stands. Browse the full 19 inch rack gear range for racks and rack-mount units, or explore the wider studio gear range to complete your setup.
Rack Accessory FAQs
What does 1U, 2U or 3U mean?
A rack unit (U or RU) is the standard measure of vertical space in a 19 inch rack, equal to 44.45mm or 1.75 inches. A 2U drawer takes up two of those spaces. Add up the rack units of your gear to work out what size rack you need and how many spaces are left to fill.
How do I rack-mount gear that has no mounting ears?
Use a rack shelf. The shelf bolts into the rack rails like any other unit and gives you a flat platform for gear of any shape, from power supplies to small mixers. For loose items like cables and adapters, a lockable rack drawer keeps them tidy and secure.
What size rack drawer should I choose?
Rack drawers come in 1U to 5U heights, so you can match the drawer to the rack spaces you have free. A 1U or 2U drawer suits cables, adapters and small tools, while the deeper 3U to 5U sizes take bulkier gear. Every size is key lockable and looks like a blanking panel from the front, keeping stored valuables secure and the rack face clean.
