We have been allocated the top shelf of a closet for AV gear. The shelf is 36"w x 21"d x 33"h. The gear we need to accommodate includes:

- Controller (Control4 EA5)
- 3 x cable box
- 3 x Roku
- 3 x HDMI switch
- 3 x HDMI TX
- network router
- switch
- UPS / IP Power controller

Our plan to accommodate this gear involved using a Middle Atlantic SRSR.

HOWEVER, the closet is being furnished by California Closets, and they do not have the faculty / inclination to create the shelf such that it can support the weight and torque of an SRSR.

We see two options:

1. After the closet is installed, bring in our own resources to try and shore up the shelf so it can accommodate the SRSR.

2. Figure out a way to accommodate the gear that does not require a pullout rack mechanism, but still affords us the needed access for installation and maintenance.

Focusing on option 2, any thoughts on how to approach this? Anytime we've ever tried putting gear on static shelving in the past, it has been a huge head ache with ongoing concerns about maintainability and we vowed never to do it again.

Much appreciate any thoughts.
