Middle Atlantic 1 Bay Riser Base, 42"D GRK

The Middle Atlantic 1 Bay Riser Base for 42" GRK racks is engineered to help you maximize room for equipment while preserving solid, dependable support. This 4" high, 42" deep riser base is designed to elevate a single bay GRK rack, enabling smarter cable management, improved airflow, and easier access during installation and service. Built to complement the GRK family of 42" racks, this riser base integrates seamlessly into floor-standing configurations, delivering the stability and reliability you expect from Middle Atlantic products in data centers, broadcast suites, and professional AV installations.

Whether you are outfitting a control room, a production studio, or a small data rack, the 1 Bay Riser Base provides a practical solution to maximize usable floor space without sacrificing strength or accessibility. Its floor-standing form factor ensures dependable performance in demanding environments, where vibration, foot traffic, or equipment heat could compromise stability. By elevating the rack, you also promote better airflow around cables and components, contributing to cooler operation and more straightforward maintenance. This riser base is a smart, economical upgrade that helps you get more value from your existing 42" GRK setup.

  • 1 Bay, 4" Height, 42" Depth: Precisely sized to accommodate GRK 42" Racks, this riser base lifts a single bay to a practical height while preserving the full depth needed for wiring, brackets, and cable management. The 4" elevation strikes a balance between ground clearance and stability, enabling easier access for maintenance or expansion without sacrificing footprint or load distribution. Ideal for AV installations, data centers, and broadcast environments where every inch of floor space matters.
  • Floor-Standing Design for Reliability: The floor-standing form factor provides a stable, robust foundation that supports demanding equipment and high-traffic rooms. By keeping the base anchored to the floor, it reduces the likelihood of tipping or wobble, even with heavy gear mounted above. This design is particularly beneficial in environments with frequent rearrangements, service access needs, or temporary configurations, delivering dependable performance you can rely on during critical operations.
  • Maximized Space Utilization: Elevating the rack with a dedicated riser unlocks under- and around-rack space for routing cables, power distribution, and cooling paths. The 42" depth of the GRK-compatible setup ensures there is ample room for deep components, rear cabling, and access to rear ports. Organizations can keep aisles clear, reduce clutter, and simplify cable management, which often translates to faster installations, easier service, and improved airflow efficiency across the rack ecosystem.
  • Durable Fit for GRK 42" Racks: This riser base is designed to work in harmony with GRK 42" racks, ensuring a consistent fit and alignment with the rack’s footprint. The result is a clean, professional installation where panels, doors, and accessories line up correctly. The compatibility reinforces a cohesive rack system that not only looks polished but also behaves predictably during maintenance and upgrades, minimizing installation stress and downtime.
  • Easy Integration and Maintenance: The riser base is engineered for straightforward integration with existing GRK racks and floor installations. Its simple, purpose-built design reduces installation time and complexity, enabling technicians to position, secure, and connect components with confidence. When combined with proper cable management practices, the riser base supports efficient servicing, quicker part swaps, and smoother future upgrades, making it a practical, long-term addition to any professional rack setup.

how to install Middle Atlantic 1 Bay Riser Base, 42"D GRK

To install the 1 Bay Riser Base, start with a clean, level floor to ensure maximum stability for the rack system. Position the riser base in the desired location so that the footprint aligns with the planned rack footprint and cable routes. Place the GRK 42" rack atop the riser base, making sure the rack sits evenly and squarely on the base. If your installation includes mounting hardware or leveling feet, attach them according to standard rack installation guidelines and the GRK rack manual. Verify that all four corners are firmly seated and stable before adding any equipment. Route rear cables through permitted channels and ensure there is adequate clearance for airflow and service access. Finally, perform a light check by gently rocking the setup and inspecting for any movement. If security hardware is provided, engage it to lock the riser base to the floor or to the rack as recommended. Regularly inspect the base for signs of wear, and maintain proper cable management to sustain performance and reliability over time.
