Single-Lid or Double-Entry Rack Mount: Which is Right for the Job?

Single-Lid Custom Case

A single-lid case is highly customizable and can serve many needs.

When it comes time to choose the right custom case for your product, there are countless decisions to make from which type of molding to use, to the design, to the right configuration for maximum shock protection. Here are some of the core differences between single-lid custom cases and double-entry rack mount cases.

Single-Lid Custom Cases

These are a simpler style of custom case that allow for an increased amount of customization thanks to their simplicity. If you need something specific, single-lid custom cases can almost always get the job done. The three main types are:

  • Plastic Rotationally Molded Cases: These single-lid custom cases can have a high level of detail and are known for being very strong and durable. If customization is your highest priority, these are the cases for you.
  • Plastic Injection Molded Cases: This method produces single-lid cases that are durable, water-tight, and shock-proof. There are fewer customization options available, but the process is quicker and much more cost effective.
  • Aluminum Cases: Aluminum is lightweight for frequent flyers, can easily withstand extreme conditions and can be made into single-lid cases very quickly.

Double-Entry Rack Mount Cases

Double-entry rack mount cases are designed to lock together for easy shipping and allow you to still access the contents from each side when they are locked together. Why are double-entry rack mount cases so great?

  • Molded rib exterior for easy interlocking: Since you customize the cases, you can make sure they lock together perfectly.
  • Comfort grip handles: These make it easy and comfortable to transport your double-entry rack mount cases long and short distances.
  • Customization options: Just like single-lid custom cases, these can be customized with different colors and silkscreen printing and even adding on wheels for simple transport.
  • Aluminum: If you love the strength and light weight of aluminum, you can also use this case material for your double-entry rack mount case.
