Mini Network Rack – Lockable & Ventilated Homelab Cabinet
A compact and practical 3D printed network cabinet designed to keep small networking setups clean, organized and protected.
I designed this enclosure for compact network equipment such as routers, gateways, switches and other small network devices. The internal shelves allow multiple devices to be installed while keeping the setup organized.
The cabinet features integrated ventilation openings on the sides and top to improve airflow around the equipment. Cable routing openings make it possible to keep power and network cables neatly managed.
The front uses a separate hinged door and can be equipped with a small cabinet/cam lock, making the enclosure useful in locations where you want to prevent easy access to the network equipment.

The example shown in the photos is being used with compact network equipment, demonstrating how several devices can be installed in a clean and protected enclosure.
Printing
The model is divided into multiple printable components/plates. Check the supplied print profile for the recommended orientation and settings.
PLA can be used for normal indoor environments. For installations where the networking equipment generates significant heat, PETG or another temperature-resistant material is recommended.
Assembly
Print all required parts, install the internal shelves and assemble the enclosure. Fit the door into the hinge points and optionally install a compatible cabinet/cam lock.
Network equipment and lock hardware shown in the photos are not included.
