Kenuco Heavy Duty 16 Gauge Steel DVR Security Lockbox with Fan and Swing Open Top (18'' x 18'' x 5'' Black)

One could not ask for a finer designed or built DVR lockbox. The steel is very thick, it has two locks along opening edge to protect from prying. Alignment of door, hinges, and locks is precise. Powder-coated finish was flawless. It arrived packed in three heavy, nested boxes with an additional firm foam protector, and it was in absolutely pristine condition. Unlike many other boxes that force attachment of the DVR flat against the wall, this design allows the device to be affixed to the interior of the box door so that when the box is opened the DVR lowers to a horizontal position and is well aligned for cable attachment and adjustment. Plenty of access ports for cable entry. cabinet is well vented so running of fan was not needed for my DVR. A masterpiece product.

Its heavy-duty construction, ample space, swing open top design, integrated fan for cooling, professional aesthetic, and key lock security make it a top-tier choice for security-conscious users. I wholeheartedly give it 5 stars and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and effective solution to secure and cool their DVR equipment. This lockbox has exceeded my expectations and provides the peace of mind needed for a robust surveillance system.

So I'm still working on this project. I have no security cameras mounted YET. I have connected for testing. So what you need in my 3rd picture is a little messy right now. It'll look nice when done. Just to get that out of the way. This Wall mounted box is 18" x 18" and 5" Thick. I'm using a 5MP ONWOTE NVR PoE Security system for 8 cameras.I don't have a lot of free wall space in my garage, but here over my sink and over the Aux Circuit breaker box. So it's mounted up high out of the way. To get to it, I can pull out a step ladder and get right to it to use if need be. The area to mount your DVR or NVR is pretty adjustable. There's some thin padding on the bottom bracket that holds the unit up in the air to the top bracket you can see in the picture. This allows better airflow under the unit, and there's good air flow from the sides of the bracket. There is a stop in the back from keeping my NVR from sliding too far back. I had an issue here with my NVR. The power switch is on the back side. So when pushed back into the mount, it would hit the switch and power it off. Ops. What I ended up doing is adding some rubber bumpers I had, and sticking them up on the top of the rear brackets. So when I push it back all the way, the power switch doesn't get hit and turned off.So the mount for your DVR or NVR is pretty flexible. There are knock out plugs about 1-1/2" in the bottom, Back of the box, and on the bottom of the Box. Yet for some reason, None on the sides and NONE on the top!!! So you can run power out and your cables for the Security Cameras. I needed them on the TOP and so I had to Punchout my own holes. The left side is for my Ethernet cables and the one on the right for power. You really shouldn't run power and ethernet cables right next to each other if you can help it. So I had Hole Punches that I normally use for making a new hole in an Electrical Box. This is similar. Makes a nice hole unlike a hole saw. Then I used some small black flex stuff that is cut along the length you would normally run some wires in. I used it as an edge protector for the cables going through the holes I created.The Fan that is included can be mounted on the left or right side. It came on the right side on mine and so I left it there as it's where I want it. The fan is not quite. I may replace it in the future. I do want to temp control the fan as it doesn't need to be always running, especially this time of year when it's cold in the garage. But again, it is in the garage, so it doesn't really have to be quiet. I don't even currently have in plugged in right now. The HDD in the NVR is not exactly quiet either. It's making some noise also.This Box is 5" Thick, and that door, NVR/DVR mount takes up a lot of space. When it's in the up position, there's about 1-1/2" of space from the back wall. This 13.3" 1080P Display I got is just under 1/2" thick. It has a VESA 75x75 mount on the back. It has stereo speakers. it's basically a portable gaming Monitor. It has two Mini HDMI ports on it and USB. You can power this display with either the power cable it comes with or from the USB port. I have it plugged into 1 of the 2 USB ports to power the display. The other USB is used for the Mouse. The Box is setup for VESA 75x75 or 100x100. I'm using a slim Mount that works for either of those sizes. it's just under 1/2" thick. So Mount and display equals about an Inch. I added some spaces to bring it away from the back wall just a bit. because all the buttons for this display are on the back!!! There is no remote for it. The way it's mounted, there's more than enough space to reach behind and turn on the display.My Box is mounted to the Stud on the right side and then Drywall anchors on the left side. It's more than strong enough. It's up high, out of the way. it's white and so blends in with the wall. I don't think you'd even notice it if you were not looking for it. Then it locks up. If someone does break into my house, they will be slowed down from just grabbing the NVR before they take off. The main point is scaring the criminal away from breaking into the house in the first place and going for an easier target. One without cameras.So again, my complaint is no knock out holes on the top or sides of the case, but especially the TOP!!! There are vents there already, so not like trying to keep out water or something. The other issue is it's kind of hard to just open when it's unlocked. There's nothing to grab. The key doesn't work well or a good idea to use to try and open. It's a little sticky on the left side. It's not a huge deal breaker or anything.I posted a few pictures. One looking up close as I'm on the step ladder with the door closed. The next standing on the floor looking up at an angle at it so you can get a side look at it. You can see the fan on the top, and a vent on the bottom. It's the same on the other side minus the fan. Again you can swap sides with the fan. I have to clean up the wall under my box where I have some pencil marks you can see. I have it an inch down from the top of the dry way and an inch away from my Cabinets.I also mounted a ledger board on the wall to set the cabinet onto so I didn't have to just hold it up and try to mount it. So it sat on that. I had that screwed into the wall studs. Once the Box was mounted, I removed the ledger board. Really, just like a 2x4 and some long screws to go though and into the drywall and then the stud. I mounted 19" down from the top of the drywall. Used a level to make sure it was level and screwed it in. Then Pick Up the Box and set it on it. It's just so much easier!!!!When I'm done, It'll look professionally done just like my Home Network setup.

The description of this cabinet does not accurately reflect that you can house your television monitor AND DVR in this extremely well made locking cabinet. The DVR is easily attached to the provided mount on the drop down door. The 8 inch depth of the cabinet allows you to ALSO mount the TV on the back wall for a seamless installation. For reference my TV is a 15” inch and about 2 inches deep. Keys included as well as the fan. Very heavy and well made cabinet. You won’t be disappointed.

Great product best DVR lockbox I have ever bought.

The case is very sturdy and will slow someone down who is trying to break into it. The mounting holes are 24" apart and it comes with concrete anchors. It would be nice if there were also some mounting holes 16" apart for studs and some long wood screws. I have no idea what those angles brackets are for inside the case. It would be nice to have some instructions on what to use them for. Can I get new keys if I lose the ones that came with it? Over all I am happy with it and its doing its job.My shipping box arrived VERY damaged. I think the case may be slightly bent because something rubs when it closes, but this is the fault of UPS, not the Kenuco.

The box itself feels very sturdy but the mounts inside are super flimsy. Also I couldn't find any measurements for any of the mounting points so I bought this because it says it fits standard rack mounted equipment but when I went to fit my standard 19" spaced rackmount equipment it didn't fit. These are spaced 17" apart and I had to drill and remount the hardware to make my stuff fit inside. Even with the extra work I think this may work for what I need, just wish there was more detail on the actual mounting hardware.

I have been in the security camera business for over 30 years and this NVR/DVR lock box is the best deal for the money I have ever purchased and on top of that the construction and options for equipment is over the top! It also comes in smaller sizes which again gives you many options. I will purchase this box for every job I have for now on.
