Causes more headaches than it solves

I bought one of these network racks and I'm not impressed. I wanted to use shorter bar options due to size restrictions, but this was not possible due to very poor welds (see image). Since I was in a dilemma, I went ahead and just used a higher pair. Then, as I started building things into the shelf (after attaching it to the wall), I noticed that the holes in the right plank were pretty small, making it almost impossible to screw them in without enough force. Since I already had the unit mounted on the wall I was really at a point of no return so I just got it working. I've installed tons of rackmounts and this was by far the worst. I would definitely recommend another product, I know I will use one.
