I am trying to find a waetherproof box that I can install at a customer's dock. It should be able to house a 4" Touchpanel and a telephone. It would need to lock as well.

I ahve seen the Viking emergancy phones, but I'd like some other options if possible...anyone know of anything that would work?

Jason,
I need the same thing looked for a while and found nothing. I spent 2 hours in an electrical supply house in my area trying to fit an elan keypad no luck. If you happen to come across somthing drop me an email please.
I am now leaning towards a glass maker to make one out of tinted plexeyglass with a weatherpoof electrical flip face on the front

Hang tight, guys. I've seen what would work for you. It's a line of water-proof (not just rain-tight) electrical boxes with hinged, gasketed (lockable?)doors.

As Arnold would say (and often, too):"Ah'll be bahk!"

This is a very untapped market as far as our industry goes. Carlon makes a nice 1-gang clear flat outdoor cover, but I've never found one in 2- or 3-gang.

Seems everything out there is for electrical (much more restrictive code), and we just sift through it all to find the least offensive piece.
