The usual suspects are DDB Unlimited and American Products.  There are others 
as well.  They can add slack storage boxes onto the cabinets for sure.

They're never cheap.  You could build a building for what a cabinet costs.  
They're really for when you need the small footprint, or for the logistical 
simplicity of dropping a cabinet on a pad vs everything you need to go through 
for constructing a building.  You also get electrical pre-wired and HVAC built 
in, so it can eliminate having to get an HVAC contractor and reduce the scope 
of work for an electrician to just hooking up the service drop.  If your 
capital is cheaper than your labor, then cabinets are great.

If you abandon rack mount and go to panel or DIN mounted hardware, then you can 
get industrial controls enclosures for $hundreds rather than $thousands.  This 
is the direction I went when the budget was tighter.

Indeed, it would be nice to have a source for an affordable version of this, or 
something close that costs less than a used Hyundai.
