With this vibration-resistant quarter turn, EMKA is introducing a robust lock onto the market that is suitable for a wide range of applications.

FDB Panel Fittings managing director Gary Miles looks at evolution of enclosure and cabinet hardware for panel building applications.

EMKA will again be an enthusiastic exhibitor at Data Centre World exhibition from 12-13 March at Excel London on stand DC115, with an array of data centre-ready cabinet and enclosure access/security equipment, and a selection of friendly technical salespeople who will be delighted to discuss exactly what each customer needs for their next project.
