That rack is just 60cm deep so not fit for servers unfortunately. But it's very heavy and well made. It was originally used to house low power tv relay transmitter.
My IT "engine room" is just small storage room in my apartment that I have converted to that purpose. Mainly because some of the equipment's are pretty noisy. It's connected to my home office and living room via single mode fiber-optic cable. Its a kind of overkill but most of this stuff I have salvaged at work from going to scrap.
Here's a picture of whole rack in it's current state

There is eaton protection station 650 UPS at the bottom of the rack but it's little underpowered so Im gonna replace it at somepoint.
Cooling is currently handled by simply 10W 48V DC fan with PWM control for fan speed but that system is little too underpowerd for summertime. I have been trying to think alternative methods of cooling but small roomsize and money have restricted my options.
Im also planning to adapt somekind of access controll as I recently salvaged Interlogix standalone keypad for electronic door locks. Now Im looking for magnetic lock to use with it. Once again, defined overkill with no really point but it would sure bee cool looking.
