Product description
Sheet steel door, one-piece, solid for VX IT, to replace existing doors. For enclosure width 800 mm, for enclosure height 2,200 mm, sheet steel, spray-finished
IP 55 protection on a one-piece sheet steel door provides reliable ingress control for VX IT enclosures. This reduces dust and moisture ingress that can shorten electronics life and trigger unplanned downtime, translating into lower maintenance costs and higher line uptime. The replacement door is designed for retrofits, allowing technicians to swap without extensive reconfiguration, minimizing commissioning time. Spray-finished sheet steel offers a durable, uniform finish that resists corrosion and wear in harsh factory environments. The business impact is a lower repainting cycle and a consistent appearance across cabinet rows, supporting easier asset management and reduced total cost of ownership. The door is well suited for manufacturing floors with frequent washdowns and chemical exposure, where long service life and predictable performance matter. Comfort handle VX and four 130° hinges ensure smooth, secure operation. The business impact is predictable door swing, reduced risk of misalignment, and easier maintenance. For bayed installations, a 180° baying hinge is required to achieve full 180° opening, ensuring full accessibility during service. Fit and compatibility are central advantages: the DK 5301.542 door is sized for VX IT enclosures at width 800 mm and height 2,200 mm, with matching color scheme to maintain a cohesive appearance. The enclosure interface uses standard hardware and mounting practices, simplifying procurement and installation for plant-wide rollouts. Environmental and logistical considerations matter, too. The door weighs 35.4 kg per pack and carries a cradle-to-gate PCF of 134.9 kg CO2 eq (Cat B), supporting sustainability reporting. The included components reduce lead times and ensure your team can complete replacements in a single site visit. Supply includes: door with comfort handle for semi-cylinders with security lock 3524 E, four 130° hinges inside, and necessary assembly parts. This complete package minimizes additional orders, avoids missing hardware, and speeds up installation in multi-enclosure projects.

FAQs
To install the door, first verify the VX IT enclosure width and height (800 mm × 2,200 mm) match the application. Use the supplied assembly parts and four 130° hinges for proper alignment. For bayed installations, use a 180° baying hinge to achieve a full 180° opening, then attach the comfort handle and security lock as shown in the installation guide.
Key specifications include sheet steel material, IP55 protection, and a spray-finished surface.
