How to install Middle Atlantic 28SP Glass Door for BRK/OBRK

• Verify compatibility: confirm that your enclosure is a BRK/OBRK model and that the door opening matches the 28U height and the 18.7" width specified for the 28SP door.
• Prepare the enclosure: power down equipment as needed and clear the rack interior to provide unobstructed access to mounting points and hinges.
• Remove existing door or insert: if replacing an existing door, remove it carefully by loosening hinge fasteners and supporting the door to prevent damage to glass or frame.
• Align hinges: position the 28SP door so that hinge pins align with the cabinet mounting points. This ensures smooth opening and closing and prevents binding or misalignment over time.
• Attach mounting hardware: secure the door using the supplied hardware, tightening hardware to the manufacturer’s recommended torque. Check that screws are seated firmly but not over-tightened to avoid frame distortion.
• Check operation and alignment: open and close the door multiple times to verify smooth movement, proper latch operation, and an even gap around the door frame. Make minor adjustments if needed to ensure a uniform seal and clear viewing area.
• Test thermal and airflow considerations: after installation, verify that door placement does not obstruct cable management or airflow patterns within the enclosure, and adjust if necessary to maintain proper cooling for mounted equipment.
• Final inspection: confirm there are no loose components, the glass remains clean and intact, and the door sits flush within the enclosure opening with consistent gaps around the perimeter.
• Documentation and care: keep the installation guide for future maintenance, and clean the glass with a non-abrasive cleaner to preserve clarity and reduce fingerprint marks over time.
