Abstract

A framework installation guide assembly is provided that is selectively attachable to mounting rails of an electronic enclosure cabinet. The mounting rails include a plurality of mounting apertures at predetermined intervals. The framework includes a set of guide rails extending into the electronic enclosure cabinet. A first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket are affixed to a first guide rail and second guide rail, respectively, for selectively coupling the guide rails to the vertical mounting rails using fasteners at a selected one of the mounting apertures. An array of rollers is coupled to the first guide rail and the second guide rail for providing support to a bottom-side surface of the electronic component. The array of rollers further provides a slidable support surface for allowing the electronic component to be moved to a position for securing the electronic component to the mounting rails of the electronic enclosure cabinet.
