Where do you find enclosures?

I'm looking for an aluminum 2U rackmount enclosure. I am mounting two channels of SC-1 plus 2 Mini i/o kits and VU meters. I have designed the frontpanel using front panel designer (free from www.frontpanelexpress.com). However, i cannot for the life of me find a good place to get enclosures. I can't even really find any 19" 2U enclosures. It's likely that i'm being dumb in my searches and missing something, but can anyone help me out? Thanks much!

May I interest you in an SC-1 frontplate? Create a pro looking preamp. Use with whatever case you buy. Anodized aluminum, 0.125" thick, engraved lettering, pre-milled CNC holes. Mounting bolts included.
(I only have 2 pcs left. This is just an experiment.)

Hey thanks owel. I will check those out. I would be interested in a frontplate that supports all the extra toys. I didn't see anything like that when ordering more kits last night, so i just figured i'd design my own. If you have frontplates avaliable, let me know where to find them and i'll take a look!

That's it... the photo above. It's not in the online store since I only have 4 qty of these. I'm now down to the last (2). PM me if you're interested.

The whole idea is you use your own case, and just slap these plates in front of your SC-1, and then mount the plates (with the SC-1 behind it) to your own case.

I plan on doing a modular design, so there'll be different front plates for the Active DI/Mini-IO, VU meter, and other future kits.
