Wall Boxes
A wall box is a secure enclosure that is mounted onto a wall. Also known as wall-mounted enclosures, these storage boxes are primarily used to house various components or equipment. Many models sold in New Zealand feature a door or lid for easy access and some wall mounted enclosures are lockable for security. When working with limited spaces, these storage boxes help maximise efficiency by housing potentially hazardous items while protecting them from environmental hazards like moisture and dust.
Key Features of Wall Boxes
Most wall-mounted boxes are also made from strong and durable materials like stainless steel, ABS, or thermoplastic. This enables them to withstand high impacts and offer a high level of security, preventing accidental or unauthorised tampering or removal. With a wide range of IP ratings, the enclosures are also suitable for outdoor and indoor use.

Benefits of Wall Boxes
Given their durability and versatility, wall-mounted boxes can meet various needs. Listed below are some of the common ways residential or commercial users in New Zealand benefit from storage containers.
Electrical
Electrical enclosures are frequently used to secure access to delicate or potentially dangerous electrical systems such as fuse boxes of power inlets. When it is important to keep electrical systems free from environmental factors such as moisture, for safety and functionally, high IP rated wall boxes are used normally with suitable locks.
General Purpose
General purpose wall boxes are often used for secure outdoor or indoor storage. Many of these wall-mounted boxes are lockable, providing storage for important or potentially hazardous items. With stainless steel, steel, polyester, plastic, ABS, thermoplastic, aluminium or other metal versions available, the sturdy construction of these wall boxes ensures a high level of security with and without a lock.
Marine Environments
Wall boxes built for marine environments are available with IP67 rating, which is among the highest. These wall mounted enclosures are available in material that ensures protection in hose down environments. Some storage bins for marine applications may even come with seals for the base and lid or door and are lockable.
Visibility Needs
Wall mounted enclosures also come in ranges with transparent doors. Although this may lower the impact resilience of the box, it allows you to view the contents within the storage box.
