Review on Protect Your Electronics With Zulkit'S Blue Metal Enclosure: DIY Project Case With Preventive Features (9.1" X 7.3" X 3.9") by David Gagnon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Painted Steel, not Aluminum

Nice box at a reasonable price. Painted steel, so a bit harder to drill or punch than an aluminum box. I used one of these for a power supply build and it worked well, however, i did replace the front with a thicker plate made out of Aluminum.The panels are are all screwed to the two plastic bezels, front and rear. Everything is held together with those plastic pieces, but it works OK. You can disassemble the front, back, and top cover, for easy access to the bottom to mount parts. There are reinforcements on the top corners, as the cover is fairly light gauge steel. Nice paint job, maybe powder coat. Mine arrived damaged. Packaged, in very light gauge bubble wrap, and thrown in a box with other loose items. There is a scratch in the front, and a dent in the back. The bag of case screws thrown inside the box, scratched the inside, so I can't just turn the scratched plate around, because the inside is worse. Most people take pride in their work, if they are allowed to do so.
