I’m not really a fan of anything made by Legrand, but this Low Voltage panel fit the budget and was easy to install and worked well for what I needed it to do.

Metal box was bent and paint was flaking off very disappointed at the time putting it in a million dollar home

I have used Leviton brand in the past, but got this for the hinged door. It is ok, but a little flimsy.

Box was received in good condition, but corner of door was bent with paint chipped. When putting door on the holes do not line up on non hinge side to screw in the corners.

Me encantó este artículo se lo recomiendo.

As expected. Granted I took a very good look at the specifications before ordering.

The house we bought had a smart panel with a screw on door, and I wanted one with a hinged door so we swapped it out. Legrand makes great stuff and this smart panel is clean looking, the hinged door is so much better then the screw on door, and I wanted a key lock so we could lock it down the line so no one can tamper with it. Great looking panel, very well made, and totally worth the money. Also, works great with the Legrand pop in shelves which I bought three of. I highly recommend this smart panel.

Best cabinet for structured wiring (home or light commercial).This is an On-Q brand - it's the "Gold Standard" for home applications.This is similar to a medicine cabinet, just drilled out for all kinds of connections.The design allows you to setup your low voltage wiring (Phone, Networks, Video, Cable TV, etc.)all connected in one place, making repairs and changes simpler and safer.Most modern homes how have a central wiring location for all the security and internet connected devices.While the home owner many not appreciate it, your home repair people definitely will prefer this design.And, now the prices are very affordable (at least, for the cabinet - the custom shelves are very expensive).Look at: Tripp Lite 550VA Audio/Video Backup Power Block ($200)Specially designed for a 3" deep cabinet, this UPS fits nicely on a half-width shelf and it's secured with velcro straps (provided).The makes wiring easier, with outlets on the edge, rather than on the front of the UPS.more . .I bought the largest box because I own one already. It barely was large enough for the smallest UPS I could find (slim and very flat).This time, I found a better, even smaller UPS (See highly recommended for this cabinet applications). I put everything in this box except for the Security System (located in a more secure area in my master bedroom closet). The box has plenty of room to install cable amplifiers, spitters, network patch panels, telephone punch blocks, and other high tech devices needed. Plus, there is ample space to layout the wiring, label it, and organize the cables for service and inspections.The box has 3" holes cut in the top for cables to enter.It does not have any kind of bushing or cable protection, but with a hole that size, you should install a short piece of PVC gray conduit to protect your cable from chafing and cutting.The bottom of the cabinet has two standard sized outlet cutouts. You can knock out one or both to install the 120v electrical outlet (or 220v). I chose one with lightning protection (they sell some that are colored plastic and have tiny sirens that go off when they get activated). Lightning protection or surge-protection circuits vary by size and quality, so choose a good one or let your electrician put one on the whole house breaker box.Isolating the low voltage electronics makes service easier and it protects them better than putting them all over the house and worse, snaking wires and cables around. Nearly everything today is wireless, which does require less wire. However, for more secure connections, you still want to use a wired Ethernet cable (CAT5e or CAT6 now days). The outlet and box are not included - mine was about $80 for the white painted metal box (standard metal gang box, but well pained).Note: Paint got into the screw threads in the cabinet, so clear those screw holes before trying to use them, first.Normally, you just slip this box in-between a pair of studs in your house wall. If the studs are too far apart, you add on 48 inch long 2x4's or other wood to fill out the space. Use short sheetrock screws for temporary hanging the box, until your sheetrock is repaired. (Box usually needs to stick out 1/2", so the hanged door has room to fit and swing open or closed).Cabinet lock and key come with the door, which is packed separately (it goes on last).Buy lots of cable ties and if you use 3rd party hardware in cabinet, you need to be prepared to drill some additional holes.And, last recommendation, think about adding a 3 inch computer pan-fan ($5) in the top for silent air movement.Mine cools well enough on it's own, because the entire back is riddle with pre-drilled boiler-plate holes that vent and cool nicely.It works in any empty wall space, but most people choose a void or closet location, where access to the attic is easy and not so messy.In my house, that's a central closet.The only things that don't go in this box are routers and anything with an antenna, as the box will shield them.Routers (NetGear, Apple, LinkSys, etc.) have antennas, so they need to be set-up outside the cabinet.In my case, I just set them on a nearby shelf.It would be nice if someone packaged a kit with all the extra stuff you need, because if you are not a hobbies or electrician, you won't have all the little extra parts you really need (shelves, standoffs, splitters, UPS, surge-protection, screws, bushings).If you are looking at a small cabinet, I'd urge you to go for a larger one!You need a lot of room to route stiff cables, band them, and route them around the box (think larger coils, loops, and turns).Cable TV uses coax wire (RG-6).Internet and Phones (CAT5e and CAT6)While I recommend this box highly, it's not for beginners.This is a project that requires basic tools.Not recommended for home security - those boxes are more specialized.This box is not exactly generic (custom holes and snap-pin connectors), but it can be used that way.

This enclosure is exactly what I needed for my simple wiring closet for cat5 connections (e.g.for WIFI access points, security cameras, etc). Mine was a surface mount installation, but it could also be installed between studs if the wall is open. I used the panel's bottom slots to bolt on 2 electrical boxes, each with two 120V outlets. I installed a 12 position RJ45 patch panel on the side (inside enclosure), and installed an 8 port switch in the center, using two sided tape to mount. I have also installed PoE adapters in the enclosure, as needed - also with two sided tape. The top three holes are each 2.5", already open, and I used them with 2" PVC conduit adapters and 2" electrical conduit - fitted perfectly. The instructions are very well written, with exact steps for mounting the panel (e.g. to plywood, which is what I did), and exact steps for hanging the door. Even someone very rusty as a DIY could follow these great instructions.
