Airflow-Optimised Blanking Panels for Server Racks
EziBlank blanking panels are engineered to block hot air recirculation inside server racks. Designed for commercial server rooms and data centres across Sydney and NSW, our tool-free panels improve airflow performance, reduce energy consumption, and support compliance with modern data centre cooling and containment standards.
Prevent Cooling Loss by Sealing Empty Rack Spaces
Unsealed rack units compromise airflow management, increase cooling loads, and raise operating temperatures. Blanking panels correct this by filling unused spaces in your server racks, redirecting cold air through active equipment, and preventing hot air from circulating back into the intake area.
Without blanking panels, racks develop pressure imbalances and hotspots that reduce the efficiency of cooling systems. In both small IT environments and large data centres, unsealed spaces contribute to increased power usage and accelerated wear on critical hardware.
EziBlank panels are designed to deliver consistent airflow performance across rack elevations. By isolating thermal zones, they maintain the integrity of hot and cold aisle setups and help facilities achieve better Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE).
Our panels are ideal for new installations, retrofits, or airflow correction in existing racks. If you operate a server room in Sydney or NSW, using blanking panels can improve both system performance and energy efficiency compliance.

Blanking Panels Designed for Server Room Efficiency
EziBlank manufactures blanking panels to meet the technical and operational needs of modern server environments. These panels eliminate bypass airflow, protect against recirculation, and improve thermal control in rack-mounted IT equipment.
Constructed from UL94-V0 flame-retardant ABS plastic, they provide durable airflow control without adding weight or complexity. Tool-free snap-on installation makes them easy to apply to existing racks without downtime or cable disruption.
Product compatibility includes:
- 1U, 2U, 3U, and 4U rack unit sizes
- 19-inch, 21-inch, and 23-inch rack widths
- Solid or vented panel options for various cooling strategies
- Tool-less, screw-mounted, or magnetic configurations
Blanking panels are applicable in enterprise data centres, edge computing racks, co-location spaces, and smaller IT cabinets. Used correctly, they support equipment longevity, lower cooling system demand, and reduce total energy usage.
All EziBlank panels are modular and reusable, supporting fast retrofits, standard compliance, and long-term airflow strategy in critical environments.
Tool-Free Installation with Sydney-Based Support
EziBlank provides blanking panel solutions with optional installation support across Sydney and New South Wales. All panels feature a modular tool-free mounting system for rapid installation in both live and planned environments.
Installation can be completed by in-house teams or arranged through our engineering support services. Whether retrofitting existing racks or deploying new builds, EziBlank panels allow for fast, accurate airflow sealing without interrupting live systems.
Key service features include:
- Local stock and fast delivery within Sydney and the surrounding regions
- On-site airflow assessments and system audits
- Full compatibility checks for 19-inch and wider rack systems
- Optional integration with other Airflow products, including brush grommets and airflow tiles
EziBlank panels are compliant with Australian thermal management practices and energy standards. Each installation aligns with cooling design strategies like hot aisle and cold aisle containment, and can be coordinated alongside cable management solutions.
We also offer layout planning assistance and sizing support for high-density environments. Installation recommendations follow industry best practices such as sealing all open U spaces, managing bypass paths, and aligning with raised floor airflow patterns.
Improve Cooling Efficiency and Reduce Operational Costs
Blanking panels deliver measurable energy savings by reducing cooling load and improving airflow alignment. Open rack units allow conditioned air to escape and enable hot exhaust air to re-enter cooling zones, leading to inefficiencies and increased HVAC usage.
By sealing unused rack positions, blanking panels ensure that cold air is delivered directly to working servers, reducing the demand on fans and air conditioning systems. This reduces energy waste, prevents hotspot formation, and supports more efficient thermal zoning.
Facilities can expect:
- Decreased power consumption and lower electricity costs
- Improved temperature control across rack units
- Longer equipment life due to consistent airflow conditions
- Support for ASHRAE airflow compliance and PUE reduction targets
For operators in Sydney and across NSW, blanking panels also provide an opportunity to meet local energy performance targets without costly infrastructure changes. When used with containment systems and cable sealing products, they form a complete passive cooling solution.
Installing panels across a 42U rack can produce immediate results in airflow consistency and cooling efficiency. EziBlank products are built to deliver long-term value and scalable integration into existing thermal strategies.
Order Server Rack Blanking Panels with Local Support
EziBlank supplies blanking panels throughout Sydney and New South Wales, offering fast dispatch and technical support for IT managers, data centre engineers, and facility teams. All products are available in standard sizes and tool-free mounting options to streamline the selection and installation process.
For those requiring assistance, we offer consultation to determine the right sizes, materials, and panel types based on your rack environment and airflow requirements. This includes guidance on:
- Matching rack width (19″, 21″, 23″) and unit sizing (1U to 4U)
- Choosing between solid and vented panels
- Selecting mounting styles that suit your infrastructure and density
Our panels are compatible with EziBlank airflow tiles, cable sealing brush grommets, and thermal optimisation software integrations such as EkkoSense.
