Rack 0 is a Black Box branded rack which is shipped and assembled IKEA-style.

Notes on the installation manual:

p6: the difference is in the direction of the curve of the rear part of the upright, when looking through the bottom hole of U1

pp7,9: watch for which holes are threaded and which one aren't by the way they appear on the drawings

p8: Based on a phone call on 20160130-2335 with Black Box, installations on server room raised flooring does not generally need bolting, but brackets can be attached to the front and back.

Manual: rm7000a-r3_rev1.pdf

lroop and stroucki installed the rack 2016-02-14. Assembly was pretty much straightforward, took about 90 minutes, moderate strength required, some uncomfortable working positions. Two people were optimal, tools needed were a level, a 19 mm wrench and 19 mm socket with ratchet. Contrary to what the manual implies, all metal was unthreaded.
