Monteringsrammer

Monteringsrammer are structural frames used to hold and support equipment or components within an enclosure, on a wall, or as part of a larger assembly. They provide a rigid mounting plane, aid in alignment, and distribute loads to the supporting structure. The term is common in Danish and Norwegian technical language and encompasses a range of products designed to organize and secure hardware.

Materials and construction: Monteringsrammer are typically made of steel (including galvanized or stainless variants), aluminum, or durable plastics. They may be welded or bolted, and often incorporate perforated panels, slots, or hole patterns to accept fasteners, brackets, and accessories. Some frames are modular, allowing length adjustments and reconfiguration without replacing the entire frame.

Design and variants: Frames come in rigid, perforated, or grid configurations. They may be designed for free-standing use, wall mounting, or as part of modular enclosures. Compatibility with standard mounting spacings, such as hole patterns or rail systems, is common to facilitate component integration. Accessories include corner brackets, mounting feet, cable management channels, and expansion sections.

Applications: Monteringsrammer are used in electrical distribution boards, machinery housings, laboratory and medical equipment enclosures, server and telecom racks, and industrial installations where components must be precisely mounted with reliable support and service access.

Installation and safety: Proper selection of frame size, material, and load rating is essential. Frames should be securely anchored to load-bearing supports, aligned, and protected against corrosion where appropriate. Electrical installations must comply with applicable codes and ensure safe clearance for cables and components.

Maintenance: Regular inspection for wear, corrosion, and loosening fasteners is recommended. Cleaning should avoid damaging protective coatings, and fasteners should be retightened according to the manufacturer’s schedule.
