Ok, I admit it most of the doors are in the basement, but these two racks are in arrow of 7, still have their doors. By the way the price if the racks (60" or 72") is only about $50.00 more with the sides and door. On the other hand the filler panels for the front may break the budget. As for cooling we use under floor, so it is piped into the bottom of the racks and vented out in the ceiling. I've learned to tell the bean counter you can't by standard racks with out doors or sides, I think they have to be special ordered.
