winesmile 0 Posted July 24, 2010 We're doing a job where we are going to house a security DVR, 2 RF modulators, and a power supply in a semi-finished attic... The client is a "little" over-protective and wants it all housed in a locking rack of some kind. The monitor can be out in the open. I'm thinking of using a Middle Atlantic DVR lockbox (DBLX). Wall-mounted with the monitor and mouse on top. Problem is the RF mods and power supply wont fit. Anybody have a suggestion for a rack product (DVR can be shelf mounted) that will house the whole system as well as properly ventilate? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soundy 1 Posted July 25, 2010 Skip the attic, it's too hot... tell him to jackhammer through the slab in the basement, dig a 4x4x4' hole, line it with reinforced concrete with rebar on 6" centers, then put a 3" thick bolted steel trap door over it... there should be plenty of room in there for the system, it will keep cooler underground, and it should survive a nuclear blast, let alone vandals...

If customer is "concerned" with the integrity of the wire, approached it as a UL-Certified Burglary installation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
