[Boatanchors] 19" Cabinet Mounting Question

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

That sort of rack panel mounting is designed
to slide "clip-nuts" (or whatever they're called)
with the proper thread over the holes in the
unthreaded lip holes.

> Hello to the group,

> I have obtained a very nice 19” cabinet for my R-390A. The cabinet has a
> recessed lip on either side of the cabinet that runs down both sides behind
> the front panel of my R-390A. The holes in the lip are NOT threaded - and
> are larger than a standard mounting screw - so I can not simply attach a
> screw through the front panel into threads on the lip behind it.

> Anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to secure the front panel to the
> cabinet?

> Thanks, and 73,
