APC Easy Rack 2U metal blanking panel,10pk

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For a blanking panel, the APC Easy Rack range is pretty sensible: you’re paying for something that fits cleanly, looks professional, and won’t rattle about when you (inevitably) open the rack door a few times. At £69.42 ex-VAT for a 10-pack, that’s decent value if you actually have gaps to fill—especially in server rooms and comms cupboards where neatness affects airflow discipline and day-to-day serviceability.

That said, I wouldn’t buy these just because they’re “APC” or “metal” if you’re only missing one or two panels. For a small gap, the per-panel cost works out less favourably, and you might be better off sourcing singles or making sure you’re not buying the wrong size/thickness for your rack rails. Also, blank panels don’t fix bad airflow planning—if you’ve got oversized openings elsewhere, these are a tidy cosmetic/functional patch, not a solution. Buy this if you’ve got multiple unused U spaces on APC Easy Rack infrastructure and want consistent, trouble-free finishing. Pass if your rack situation is minimal or mismatched and you’re better off spending that budget on cooling/blanking where it actually matters.
