PVC Junction Box with Hinged Lid 240 x 190 x 90 mm Waterproof Universal Fit Protection Rating IP56 Electrical Cable Connection Outdoor Use

Bought this to serve as a outdoor enclosure / junction box for a mains electricity based job.The box is well made and very robust with lots of built in ribbing / struts. It drills fairly easily with metal drill bits (rather than wood bits). I can't speak regarding it's longevity in keeping the weather out but so far so good with the lid having a weather proof / rubber seal built into it.I personally added some clear sealant around the edges of the outside rim just to make sure and here in Northern Ireland it rains pretty much constantly including last night when we had a serious amount of rain with a weather warning so if it's keep that amount of rain out then I am happy.For the money paid I believe I got good value for money and it's a excellent enclosure for whatever project you happen to need it for. I can recommend it.

I have used two of these boxes to enclose electrical components (a heating relay and lighting relays) for projects in our home. They are sturdy and weatherproof. Very good value compared to alternatives available from DIY outlets.

Great value for money, nice and big, using the box to house a router outdoors allowing access to the Web in our large garden. The box seems to be holding up well to the weather and have no water ingress even after some really heavy rainfall. Would recommend.

Pretty good box. Handy function that allows you to open lid whist being also retaining it on either side using two of the partially slackened screws. It is not really a hinged door but does give you some ability to do so. Thanks for a decent enclosure and a decent price.

Great value and well made, plenty of space and perfect for my needs

Such a brilliant adaptable box, nice hinged lid feature. Very robust. Would buy again. Thank you.

I purchased this to house a 12V LED Transformer in the garden for some lighting. Quality is really good and drilling holes for input was easy as mounting the transformer on some glued in wooden supports I installed. Screwing to the post to mount was easy and the box didnt flex across corners as others I have used have. The lid fits snuggly and is water tight after beign checked a couple of times since. Only thing is the hinge part, I am not sure this works as advertised although not an issue for me it might be for those that definately need this option.

These enclosures are very useful, however there is always a catch, in this case the lid's screws are not captive, so the pair that you fully unscrew and fall out when you swing the front open. Not ideal when the box is mounted at height :-( it took ages to find the screws.Update:The plastic fixing bolts, on the lid, snap quite easily when it is cold. You can 3D print new ones, however.
