The Lowell FS-18-14 Wall Mount Equipment Shelf provides a strong, space-saving platform for mounting AV, audio, network, and other equipment directly to a wall. Constructed from 16-gauge steel and rated to support equipment loads up to 100 lbs, the FS-18-14 is designed for professional commercial and installed-system applications where a traditional equipment rack may not be required.
The shelf measures approximately 18.22 inches wide × 14 inches deep and features keyhole mounting slots positioned on 16-inch stud centers for convenient installation. Its reversible design allows the equipment platform to be installed in either the up or down position, providing additional flexibility for different equipment and installation requirements.
The FS-18-14 ships flat to reduce storage and shipping space and unfolds for quick installation.
Flexible Wall Mount Installation
The Lowell FS-18-14 is designed to simplify wall-mounted equipment installations. Integrated flanges insert into panel cutouts as the shelf is unfolded, creating a sturdy equipment platform without complicated assembly.
Keyhole mounting slots are positioned on standard 16-inch stud centers, helping installers securely fasten the shelf to appropriate wall framing.
The equipment platform can be installed in either orientation:
-
Platform up for conventional shelf mounting
-
Platform down when the application benefits from the alternate configuration
Built-In Cable Management
The FS-18-14 includes several features specifically designed to make AV and low-voltage cable routing easier.
Two 2.5 × 1.25-inch oblong openings provide cable drop-down access, while a large center opening in the rear panel allows the shelf to be positioned over existing wall fixtures.
Additional rear openings accommodate single-gang, stud-mounted conduit boxes, and pre-punched mounting holes simplify installation of surface-mounted gang-size accessories.
Multiple bridge lances provide convenient attachment points for organizing and securing cables.
16-Gauge Steel Construction
The FS-18-14 is manufactured from durable 16-gauge steel and supports equipment loads up to 100 lbs when properly installed.
A flanged front retaining lip adds strength while helping keep equipment securely positioned on the shelf.
The shelf is finished in a smooth black powder epoxy coating for a clean, professional appearance suitable for commercial AV and equipment installations.
