A hot/cold aisle air containment room includes a plurality of electronic equipment enclosures at least partially defining an interior aisle, a frame structure supporting one or more ceiling panels above the interior aisle, and a door assembly. The door assembly includes a sliding door and an unpowered door closer mechanism adapted to move the sliding door from an open state to a closed state, thereby providing controlled access to the interior aisle and minimizing intermixing of hot air and cold air between an environment external to the hot/cold aisle air containment room and an environment internal to the hot/cold aisle air containment room.

1. A hot/cold aisle air containment room comprising: a plurality of electronic equipment enclosures at least partially defining an interior aisle;a frame structure supporting one or more ceiling panels above the interior aisle; anda door assembly, including: a sliding door, andan unpowered door closer mechanism adapted to move the sliding door from an open state to a closed state, thereby providing controlled access to the interior aisle and minimizing intermixing of hot air and cold air between an environment external to the hot/cold aisle air containment room and an environment internal to the hot/cold aisle air containment room;wherein the hot/cold aisle air containment room is disposed within a room in a building;wherein the plurality of electronic equipment enclosures are arranged in a row, wherein the interior aisle includes two sides and two ends, and wherein the row of electronic equipment enclosures defines one side of the interior aisle;wherein the door closer mechanism includes a belt/pulley assembly supported by a rail assembly; andwherein the belt/pulley assembly includes a damper pulley, a free pulley, and a belt routed around the damper pulley and the free pulley, wherein the sliding door is attached to the belt, thereby allowing the sliding door to be controlled relative to the belt. 2. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the interior aisle is a cold aisle. 3. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the interior aisle is a hot aisle. 4. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, further comprising one or more wall panels. 5. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 4, wherein the wall panels at least partially define at least one end or side of the interior aisle. 6. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the belt is a synchronous belt. 7. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 6, wherein the synchronous belt is toothed. 8. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 7, wherein each of the damper pulley and the free pulley include a cylindrical bearing surface having a series of teeth that interlock with the toothed synchronous belt. 9. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, further comprising a pulley tensioning device. 10. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the sliding door is attached to the belt via a splice bracket and a belt splice plate. 11. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the door assembly further includes a return spring mounted on a spool to provide resistance to the sliding door. 12. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 11, wherein a biasing force of the return spring is resisted by the damper pulley. 13. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein the damper pulley is permitted to rotate freely in one direction and is damped in the other direction. 14. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 1, wherein a spring bracket is attached at one end of the rail assembly, wherein a structure is provided that engages the spring bracket when the sliding door is moved to a fully open state. 15. A hot/cold aisle air containment room comprising: a plurality of electronic equipment enclosures at least partially defining an interior aisle;a frame structure supporting one or more ceiling panels above the interior aisle; anda door assembly, including: a sliding door, andan unpowered door closer mechanism adapted to move the sliding door from an open state to a closed state, thereby providing controlled access to the interior aisle and minimizing intermixing of hot air and cold air between an environment external to the hot/cold aisle air containment room and an environment internal to the hot/cold aisle air containment room;wherein the hot/cold aisle air containment room is disposed within a room in a building;wherein the plurality of electronic equipment enclosures are arranged in a row, wherein the interior aisle includes two sides and two ends, and wherein the row of electronic equipment enclosures defines one side of the interior aisle;wherein the door closer mechanism includes a belt/pulley assembly supported by a rail assembly;wherein the rail assembly includes a main rail extrusion supporting at least one roller bracket assembly; andwherein each roller bracket assembly includes at least one roller that rides along a portion of the main rail extrusion and that supports a roller bracket which supports the sliding door. 16. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 15, wherein the interior aisle is a cold aisle. 17. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 15, wherein the interior aisle is a hot aisle. 18. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 15, further comprising one or more wall panels. 19. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 18, wherein the wall panels at least partially define at least one end or side of the interior aisle. 20. The hot/cold aisle air containment room of claim 15, wherein a spring bracket is attached at one end of the rail assembly, wherein a structure is provided that engages the spring bracket when the sliding door is moved to a fully open state.
