What good would it do if you still have to tilt the rack to go through a short door? Still being on a pallet will only make it taller. We have an 8 foot door on our server room so we do not have to tilt any racks. (Thank goodness.) At a previous site I had to tilt the rack and maneuver around a cube wall. What a pain. Darn near had a wedge between the top of the door frame and the cube wall. Had a dent in the back of the rack from pushing the bottom with the foot while pulling the top down. (cracked the pod wall too!)
IBM and others can re-design the racks, no wheels but slots for a pallet jack. Now that would be nice. Also you can get 36U racks which are short enough for most standard doors.

Subject: steel pallet for standard racks.
Is there an appealing standard black steel pallet for IBM racks?
Friendly to either a lift truck or pallet jack?
One you could leave under the rack in the computer room.
Just thinking of the time wasted with wooden pallets.
Granted, this might be "interesting" with overhead wiring solutions.
And we already take our lives in our hands tilting these taller racks over
enough to get through our short entry doors. Our CE has seen one fall on
one IBM guy at another place.
