Removing the Doors From a 24-U or 42-U Rack

You must remove the doors from the rack to provide access to the interior of the
rack and to prevent damage to the doors while installing the kit. To remove the doors,
perform the following steps.
CAUTION: To prevent personal injury due to the size and weight of the
doors, never attempt to remove the doors by yourself.
1.
Open the latch on the front door (see Figure 1-2).
Slide the latch's push-button cover up as far as it will go, press the push button,
rotate the handle clockwise until the latch releases, and then pull the door open.
