I used standard rack rails running horizontally when I built my cabinet.
Standard rack screws will fit through the holes, but the large heads
tend to obscure some of the panel graphics. I just looked around for
some of the same size (10-32?) with a small head. Found some allen head
ones that work nicely and are stainless steel so the little heads help
as markers for module boundaries as well. Due to the arc of the rail
bend you end up with about 1/8" gap top and bottom but I think they work
fine.
Pics are here (pre stainless screws, those are standard MOTM screws
which are wiggly but bite enough to hold the modules down):
