Product Highlights:

Structural Solutions to Support Data Center Services

Framing systems and supporting accessories can play a key role in supporting and optimizing data center operations while reducing time to market, costs, and interruptions. By creating environments that align with what your users demand—and what your data center employees need—you can be confident that you can meet evolving requirements. Select structural framing systems and components that free you to design your data center in whatever way works best, time and time again.

Design for Flexibility

Data centers are the enablers of our progressively more data-hungry world. If these mission-critical spaces aren’t optimized for real-time performance, then the result is service outages, lost productivity, higher costs, and missed opportunities.

  • Scale on the FlyAs operational demands change, your data center layout must keep up. Structural systems that are easy to reconfigure and repurpose allow you to design spaces and supports for designs that suit the way you want to operate today, tomorrow, and beyond.
  • Less Labor Time – Data center operators are experts at maintaining and monitoring data center systems. Let them do what they do best by using framing systems that are fast and easy to assemble and require few tools. Build framework for a partition or an aisle containment system and they should be able to do so quickly without lots of training.

    More Uptime – People depend on your data center operations. Equipment damage can lead to unplanned downtime, where even short outages have lasting implications. To protect availability, framing systems must be strong, durable, and safe to use around electronic equipment.
