Middle Atlantic ERK-VRD-27 Vented Rear Door 27U Rack

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND ERK-VRD-27 is a vented rear door option designed for 27-space ERK series rack enclosures. This accessory replaces or supplements the standard rear door on compatible ERK enclosures, providing passive airflow through the rear panel to help manage heat buildup inside the rack. It is used in structured cabling, AV integration, and network equipment installations where thermal management is a priority. Installation is typically handled by low-voltage technicians, AV integrators, and data center or IT infrastructure professionals.

This vented rear door is suited for rack enclosures installed in server rooms, telecommunications closets, equipment rooms, and AV equipment bays in both commercial and residential applications. The 27-space configuration matches ERK series enclosures of the same rack unit height, making it a direct-fit option for those builds. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for use in environments where additional rear ventilation is needed to supplement active or passive cooling strategies.
