huh... I guess I'm lucky that the only rails I've dealt with were Dell's ReadyRails which are both length-adjustable and toolless

@wolf480pl @mikesiegel Dell's ReadyRails are nice, used those plenty. Even so, there is a limit to how adjustable they are, same for most rail kits. Even more impactful when you have deeper racks. I had to mount an older Citrix SDX. The rails could extend to about 30.5", mounting in a 29" deep rack. With the /dev/null devices had to fight to get the end of the rails around the bolts. Don't get me wrong, they're very cool just some caveats. I have the rack studs in a shopping list to try, too.
