i had that (one at top and bottom) in my previous home and it worked fantastic but keep in mind its going to pull dust into the closet if you install the intake close to the floor.
eta less of a problem if your server rack, etc is mounted and not sitting on the floor as you can just vacuum it.

The door
took that sucker off and put it on a couple sawhorses and cut 2 big arse holes in it. The devices went on smoothly and the cable routed on the hinge side internally so it looked nice and professional.
If you have a wall instead as an option I would do that instead if it passes the WaF.
