Ron,

I put one in about a year and a half ago, when I  moved the shack to 
another part of the house.   I spent the extra money and got the powder 
coat finish, and the keyed lock.

Construction is robust.   Also, the door has a stainless steel piano 
hinge and is tightly gasketed.


I got   the  18 gauge  medium size box.  It has 8  grommeted holes for 
cables.   I also got the copper  plate, although the standard aluminum 
probably would have been fine.   Since I already had  Alpha Delta surge 
arrestors, I had him  drill the plate for these.  Since I was going 
through the wall behind the box, I had him punch the hole and provide 
the  PVC  pipe and fittings to pass cables into the house.

I am pleased with the whole setup.   I found Chris to be very easy to 
deal with and he responded to  e-mails promptly.

Hope this helps, Steve KW3A
