Arlington EB1212-1 Electronic Equipment Enclosure Box, 12" x 12" x 4", Non-Metallic, 1-Pack

This Arlington Industries model EB1212-1 Electronic Equipment Enclosure Box, 12" x 12" x 4", Non-Metallic, is a nicely made enclosure for a light installation. It is solid and can house a battery for a backup electrical system charger. It is also has knockouts in 1", 3/4" and 1/2" pipe fitting sizes on the top and bottom edges of the 4" panels. The latch can take a lock, with standard size shank. There are also knockouts on the back of the box, mounting surface for one 2" hole and Two 1/2" pipe fitting size. There are eight mounting holes on the back panel and four raised mounts for screws to hold a back panel, that is smaller than 11 3/4"x 11 3/4" square. There is a knock out for the locking mechanism sold by Arlington on the door edge. All in all it is light, sound and a good non-metallic box for use mostly indoors.

Take a look at the attached photo, this is the label that comes on the enclosure when you receive it. Also, there is no removable tray inside. I was looking for an electronic enclosure to put a big 50A 12V power supply in. This Case worked very well, and is very sturdy. I needed to cut out a large hole for a fan. It was hard to drill for sure. If you plan to drill or cut into this box, be prepared! The plastic is thick! Overall, sturdy product for the price. Highly recommended.

When I received the first one, it had been damaged in shipping. The door had a crack in it. They had not placed nearly enough packing material in the box. I returned it the same day and I did receive a replacement with in 3 days. So besides the initial hassle, its a good product. Sturdy and it worked well for the job we had. I would recommend it.

I was very happy when I received these boxes. After shopping the box stores... this is just what I needed. They are well made and you can't beat the price! Purchased to "hide" ethernet wires coming in from outside. After exposure to the hot AZ summer, they have held up well. No warping , bowing, or cracks! I also painted them with the same house paint, and they show no signs of peeling or cracking. Tabs can pop out, but I didn't need them out. They are not waterproof, but I didn't need them to be. I especially liked the option to put a small padlock on for added security. Mounting was a breeze with the keyhole option. Good quality box. I would highly recommend these!!! Hope this review helps!

Quality has improved. This box now has knockouts which are waterproof until removed. The quality of the finish is good with no rough edges. An excellent product at a good price. This box works well with the hinge in any direction but for the most protection mount hinge at top. You might want to mount some plywood in the back for a place to screw components into, but I just mounted my timer and transformer to the back of the box with stainless screws

A good project box. I purchased the 12X12X4 box. The dimensions are outside dimensions with the sides being 1/8 inch thick so 1/4 inch less on the inside. The hinge makes the box larger outside as mentioned in other reviews with the outside lid dimensions being 12.5X13. I purchased the one without the stand off tray but it appears to be the same box, just without the extra piece of plastic, and has four stand off posts inside in each corner. There are also two mounting holes in each of the corners which have raised lips around them so the inside rear of the box is not completely flat. The posts and raised lips could be in the way if you need a flat mounting surface and plan to use all the space in the corners although they could be ground down. The door has a slight overlap on the outside of the box of about 1/2 inch so the outside space on the three sides without the hinge is about 3.5 inches. This limits anything being mounted through the side walls in that area that would protrude unless you cut the door overlap. Hinge side wall is about 2.5 inches before it steps back the extra 1/2 inch for the hinge.

This utility box is pretty sturdy. Comes with lots of knock-outs that go 1/2 through the case. I wanted to open the back 2" knockout and the only way I could was with a hole saw.

Ability to fit multiple components. In small area.

Arlington plastic box, 12x12x4. fairly sturdy. used it to create a box for ethernet ports. cut out holes in the door with dremmel tool. organized all my basement cables. love it.

Using as an outdoor router box and it works perfectly. It also came a lot sooner than expected!

I am very happy with this enclosure box, light yet durable.

I have used this for about four years with no problem . This box met my needs to add an outdoor power supply for 12 volt exterior lighting. I mounted it in a "dry" location outdoors; out of direct precipitation and sunlight but in variable humid/temp environment. The power supply is on 24/7 and it seems to keep the box dry. So far no glitches. I brought AC in the bottom, and DC out the top using PVC pipe and fittings. I put a ground fault breaker on the AC feed. The only thing I would,d do differently is a buy a bigger box as it got crowded after I installed the DC power supply.

Great product perfect for the job I was doing
