I have an RTA Producer Desk, which has rack spaces. I also have a LOT of equipment mounted in and around my desk. I had exactly the amount of space needed. I now have 3x 3U drawers in my desk and I'm happy with that outcome.Neutral on the easy to lock category, it came with locks to install but I have not installed them. Also the oddity of opening them means you press down on the latching system, whereas it would be more natural to pull up. Is/WhatIs; I'm happy with the results.

I needed a 5U rack drawer and have been in the entertainment industry since 1980 and this is the first rack drawer that seems like a piece of garbage. It is well built and solid but after reading the reviews of how well it glides I made the purchase. When I first tried to open it I thought it must have a shipping lock or something to keep it closed. Once I mounted it to my rack I am finding it very hard to open. I have to push on my road case to keep it from moving towards me just to open the drawer. I am going to try it again in a day or so and either update this review or send the unit back.

It’s a high quality drawer, but the size on here and on Gator’s website says it’s 14.5” deep. As you can see from the picture it’s over 15”.I bought it because I thought it would be a perfect fit, with a little clearance, in my 15” case. Unfortunately, it’s too big. I tried using some spacers with the screws to help it fit, but it looked ridiculous and caused some scratches on a few places. I ended up returning it.

Fits nicely into my powered audio rack.Very sturdy with a smooth open/close action.Using the pre-cut 2" grommets in the back, I was able to easily route power into the drawer. I purchased a 2" desktop power port and after a modification to the back of the unit had a 120 volt plug and 2 usb ports.

Pleasantly surprised when I took a good hands-on look at the 2 RU drawer.

Pros:Solid construction of the actual drawer.Foam inserts are perforated for easy customization.Optional locking mechanism comes with the drawer.Cons:The latch that holds the drawer shut (not the lock) is made of the cheapest plastic possible. I purchased two of these Drawers and the plastic clip on one broke when I barely bulled on one drawer to open it (it was caught on the edge even though I had pressed the release firmly down), the second lasted maybe 2 weeks of use before it broke as well. Now I just use the locks to keep them closed and that works good enough, which is why I still kept them. Ultimately the tab that holds them shut isn't a deal breaker, just doesn make sense to skimp out on that one piece when everything else is solid!

We usually love our Gator drawers, but for some reason, this one (4U with Foam) doesn't have anything to grab onto when you're pulling the drawer out. There just isn't enough space for your finger to grab onto the latch to pull it open. I've had multiple people try it. We've all had to use the latch as best we can to crack it open and then pull from the top or sides to open the drawer all the way. Not sure if we just happened to get a faulty handle, but it's definitely not ideal.Other than that, good quality foam, sturdy all around, smooth tracks, and was easy to install into the rack. Just annoying that it's not easy to open.

Ottimo prodotto, molto solido e funzionale, lo scorrimento del cassetto è molto fluido, assolutamente consigliato a chi dovesse avere due unità di spazio libere in un rack fisso.

Solid design. Smooth action. Not sure if this is a good value or not. There are cheaper drawers this size you can buy, but because I have not purchased them I cannot compare. For me, this drawer met my expectations for quality and functionality. Given that, it was worth the money to me. The drawer open is a spring latch you push down and then pull out. Works fine. No screws came with the drawer so you may need to purchase them. It is a true double rack height drawer.

Great rack mountable microphone drawer; holds up to four wireless microphones and four wireless bodypacks. I rock the Sennhesier G3 systems and they fit perfectly in this rack. So good, I bought two of them.

Exactly what I was looking for in a rack mounted drawer. Fits perfectly in my 6u Gator Pro Series Molded rack case. This unit is too large for the shallow rack mount cases. Drawer slides in and out nicely. Will not pop out on its own. Comes with locking mechanism that can be installed after purchase. A great place to store cables, pedals, notebooks, guitar accessories, etc. Would recommend to anyone.
