I want to cut a slot in the side of my cabinet / stand for a 19” American DJ 100 Power outlet. (8 Plug) Will this infringe on the cabinet / stand integrity?

The stand is a Marineland Monterey 48 X 24 Stand. (120 Gallon)

I plan on mounting a Dart board to the side of the stand which will be my electronics cabinet. The cabinet / stand originally had an 8” space between the front and back. I glued a piece wood in between the space for mounting purposes. (The Lighter piece of wood) The Power outlet will be mounted to the inside of the Dart board cabinet. My concern is the Power outlet is five inches wide and the dart board cabinet is only 3 ½ inches wide. Therefore, I will need to cut a slot into the stand.

Thank You in advance for all your advice

Mike

personally I'd find a different larger side cabinet, or mount the power bar vertically. I would not cut into the stand like that.
