What are 'standard' depths for for post EIA racks?

Various sites advertise their product specs, but they don't always agree.
Belden has a series of depths available (24, 28, 32, 36 inch depths):

But I pulled an HP rack-mount terminal out of my scrap pile and measured the
(not adjustable) depth between front and back mounting flanges at 29.75".
This would suggest a 30" rack (1/4" off since my rack mounts to the inside
of the rack rails.

I'm building up a rack (home brewed) to fit in an oddball location. I know
that some side rails are adjustable. But some (see above example) are not.

What's the true story on standard front to back depths?
