Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a fastener system for securing a component to an enclosure member. A mounting cage can include a flange and a cage portion with a blocking feature. In an installation configuration, a threaded fastener extends through the flange to engage the nut, and the blocking feature blocks translation of the nut along the cage portion towards the flange.

Abstract: A locking mechanism for an enclosure. The locking mechanism includes a housing with an outer surface having a first tab fixedly attached to the housing. The housing is adapted to be coupled to a door by pressing the housing through a latch housing of a latching mechanism of the door until the first tab springs out and locks the housing in place in the latch housing. The locking mechanism includes an insert adapted to be positioned through the housing and adapted to be coupled to a flange of the latching mechanism of the door. The insert includes either a handle or a knob. Rotation of the insert rotates the flange to lock the door.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide enclosures for electronic components and methods for manufacturing the same. In one embodiment, the enclosure includes first and second sidewalls formed from a single elongated piece of sheet metal. The first sidewall, the second sidewall, a third sidewall, and a fourth sidewall define an interior space of the enclosure. At least one of the first and second sidewalls includes an edge region folded inwardly relative to the interior space to form a mounting channel. The enclosure further includes a backwall coupled with first edges of the sidewalls and a door hingedly coupled with a second edge of at least one of the sidewalls.

Abstract: A blanking panel includes a main body extending from a first end to a second end and adapted to cover a rack having at least two posts, a fastener portion at the end of each of the first and the second ends, and an alignment member at the end of each of the first end and the second end, the alignment feature including a first pin and a second, removable pin such that the main body can be alternatively attached to a square hole with the removable pin intact, or attached to a round hole with the removable pin removed and the first pin extending through the hole.

Abstract: A door stop apparatus holds a door in an open position. The door stop includes a first member mounting to the door and having a slot formed therein with a ramp portion located at one end of the slot. A link member pivotally mounts to a bracket on a door frame. A follower mounts to an end of the link and slides along the slot in the guide member. The follower slides up and over the ramp when slid along the slot in a first direction and engages an abrupt edge of the ramp when slid in the opposite direction.
