Storage Rack Dimensions
The storage rack is built from 3/4 by 1/16 inch angle iron.
Measurements from the top to bottom a total height of 52 inches, total width 25 1/4 inches, (not including the strengthening bar on the side)
The unit has 4 shelves, measurements from the top of the storage unit to the top of the angle iron shelf, shelves slope toward the back:
All measurements in inches
shelf front rear
1 8 9 1/2
2 18 1/5 20
3 29 30 1/2
4 39 1/2 41
There is a stiffing slat 7/8 by 1/8 welded to side of the storage rack, from the top edge to the top of the 4th shelf angle iron (40 1/2) inches). Mine is welded 6 inches from the forward edge of the storage unit at the top to the leading edge of the slat and 6 3/8 from the edge of the storage unit to the leading edge of the bar at the 4 shelf angle iron. Note this stiffening piece was not included in the overall width measurement.
There is a sheet metal wall on the side of the unit at the bottom to make an enclosed compartment. It is made from 1/16 sheet metal and has a 90 degree bend with a 3/4 flap. Mine measures 10 1/2 back by 11 3/4 front and 13 3/4 length to the 90 degree bend.
On the opposite side 1/16 piece of metal was bend 90 degrees (3/4 by 3/4) and welded unto the bottom angle iron.
At the front facing bottom, a 90 degree angle iron 23 5/8 inch length of was welded. This made the 1/4 pocket for the door to slide into.
There were 4 Masonite shelves 3/16. They were attached to the angle iron by screws 3 on the front and back and two on the sides. They were drilled to fit a 1/4 machine screw. The holes were 3 1/2 inch from the outside edge inward on both front and sides and a middle hole drilled at the front and rear at 12 5/8. The Masonite holes were countersunk to provide for a flat surface.
Each of the 4 shelves had a canvas strap on the front to secure the contents. The footman loops were attached to the inside of the angle iron frame. The placement of the footman loops when measured from the top of the frame to where the top bolt of the footman loop would attach is 2 1/2, 13, 23 3/4, 33 3/4. The footman loops are the same as used on the rest of the wireless installations. Note that the screw holes on the 4th shelf are recessed to allow the sliding door to be lifted upward without any interference. I am not sure of the sliding door construction.
There are also holes drilled on the back wall angle iron to attach the the back wall of the wireless box. Again measured from the top of the unit the holes would be at 1 1/16,7 1/2, 19 1/2,31 5/8. 38, same on both sides.
Let me know if you need any further information and probably will need some clarification on my notes.
