FAQ

How to install server rack rails?

Server rack side rails are installed by attaching them to the front and rear posts of a standard 19-inch rack, then placing the server onto the mounted rails. Our Universal Server Rails do not require proprietary tools and are adjustable to fit rack depths from 650 to 900 mm. For installation, you can order 8x M6 cage nuts and screws; the screws have a diamond-shaped head for easier alignment and a more sturdy, secure assembly.

Are server rack rails universal?

Most server rack sliding rails are vendor-specific, but HOSTKEY is different. Our universal sliding server rack rails are designed to be truly universal. They support 1U to 4U equipment across multiple vendors and feature an adjustable depth from 650 mm to 900 mm (27" to 37"), which allows the same server rack rails to fit different rack models and layouts. This reduces compatibility issues, simplifies deployment and saves both time and money when racks or hardware are changed.

What is the difference between sliding and fixed server rack rails?

Sliding server rack rails allow the server to be pulled out of the rack for maintenance, while fixed server rack rails keep the server in a static position. Our Server Rails are fixed server rack rails, designed for maximum rack density, higher structural stability and a lower cost, making them a practical choice for environments where servers are rarely serviced in-rack.

Do I need server rack rails to rack mount a server?

Yes, in most cases server rack shelf rails are required to safely rack mount a server and distribute its weight correctly. Without server rack rails, airflow, stability, and serviceability are usually compromised.

What server rack rails do I need for a 1U / 2U server?

For a 1U or 2U server, you need rack rails rated for the correct height and weight. We offer server rack rails that support 1U, 2U, 3U, and 4U servers, with a load capacity of up to 40 kg, covering most standard configurations.

Can I mount a server without server rack rails?

A server can be mounted without server rack rails using shelves, but this is generally a workaround rather than a best practice. Using proper server rack rails provides better weight distribution, airflow and long-term reliability.

Are server rack rails compatible with square hole racks?

Yes, HOSTKEY rack universal server rails are compatible with standard 19-inch 4-post racks, including square hole racks, as well as round and threaded hole racks.

What are rack mount server rails and who are they for?

Are rack rails server solutions universal or vendor-specific?

Most rack rails server solutions are vendor-specific, but this product is a universal server rails kit. It supports equipment from multiple vendors and is not tied to OEM designs, making it ideal for mixed environments.

Do these server rack slide rails support sliding functionality?

This product is not server rack slide rails or sliding rails for a server rack, Rather they are fixed server rack rails, designed for maximum rack density, stability and cost efficiency in large-scale deployments.

What server sizes are supported?

The rails support 1U server rails, 2U server rails and 4U server rails configurations. They also work as 1U server rack rails for most standard 19-inch racks.

Can these rails be used as server shelf rails?

Yes, in practice they can replace server shelf rails and adjustable rack mount server shelf rails when fixed mounting is needed. This is common in hosting environments where servers are rarely serviced in-rack.

Are these short server rack rails or deep server rack rails?

Both. The adjustable depth allows use as short server rack rails and deep server rack rails, with support for rack depths from 650 mm to 900 mm.

Is this a complete server rails kit?

Yes, this is a complete server rails kit, with optional M6 cage nuts and screws available for installation in square hole racks.

Who typically buys these server rails?

These server rack rails are commonly purchased by hosting providers, system integrators and server rails suppliers who deploy hardware at scale and need predictable, repeatable installations.

Are these cheap server rails?

These are cost-effective cheap server rails compared to OEM alternatives, while still offering professional-grade durability and load capacity of up to 40 kg.
