@wolf480pl @mikesiegel I've used patchbox's similar version (/dev/mount). While they do work nice, the issue you tend to have with them with is rails tend to be of fixed length, and often don't have enough space to pull an inch+ longer than designed, so you can never get the rails on the post properly. At least with the patchbox version, the bolt is welded onto the bracket. If you accidentally turn too hard, you can shear the weld and you just end up with a spinning bolt you cannot get out.

@wolf480pl @mikesiegel They are. I bought some and tried them out but my boss wouldn't let me roll them out en-mass. So one mini rack rather than the server rooms. Although to be fair I had my doubts about using them on heavy bits of kit.
