The range of floor-standing enclosures include single door or double door enclosures, depending on your requirements of access. They consist of a large unit, usually made of metal, that can house several racks of electrical equipment and other instruments. Floor standing enclosures are used in a variety of industries from electrical to automation offering protection against dust, liquids that could damage the contents.

### How Do Floor Standing Enclosures Work?

Floor standing enclosures fit the equipment snugly, so it takes a minimal amount of additional space up. They are often fitted with locking systems to ensure that the doors don't accidentally open. Our enclosures are built with improved locking systems that enable locking at multiple points, several locking options and smooth operability. They also often have the capacity for enclosure accessories. This way you can customise your enclosures to suit your requirements:

- 19" rack mount cases - With rack mount cases, you can store equipment like computers, servers and routers in enclosures.
- Rack cooling systems - Electrical cabinets also let you house equipment in a way that prevents overheating. Fans and cooling systems can be rack mounted to circulate air within the electrical cabinets to keep your equipment cool.
- Rack panels - Made from sturdy material and fastened to racks with screws and fixings, enclosure panels help to separate the different modules within the storage facility.

### What Are the Benefits of Floor Standing Enclosures?

Floor standing equipment ensures that your products and equipment are protected against external physical elements like dirt, dust and moisture. Most of the floor-standing enclosures include an IP Rating for protection against dust and liquids. IP55 is the most common, and it means that products with this rating enable the content of the enclosure to stay in full working order from harmful dust or jets of liquid. Also assessed by the NEMA rating system, our enclosures have been certified to have ratings of 2 and above, meaning they have a durable design that keeps them protected from liquids like water, oil or coolant.

### Types of Floor Standing Enclosures
