On the File menu, point to New, point to Network, and then click Rack Diagram (US Units) or Rack Diagram (Metric). To locate the shelf shape in a new Visio drawing, follow these steps: The shelf shape is located in the rack-mounted equipment (US units) pane and in the rack-mounted equipment (metric) pane of the Shapes window.

To work around this behavior, use one of the following methods. This behavior occurs because if you resize the patch panel shape to 1U, the geometry (the patch panel drawing detail) extends outside the boundaries of the patch panel shape. When you try to resize a Microsoft Office Visio 2007 or Microsoft Office Visio 2003 patch panel shape to 1U, you find that you can only resize the shape as small as 2U. You cannot resize a patch panel shape to 1U in Visio 2007 or in Visio 2003 Symptoms
