Tricel manufacture meter box enclosures designed to house electricity and gas meters within residential and commercial buildings. These boxes provide a protective housing for utility meters while allowing access for installation, maintenance and meter readings.
Meter boxes are typically installed within the external wall of a building so that the meter remains accessible from outside the property. This allows utility providers to access the meter without entering the building while also protecting the equipment from weather exposure and accidental damage.
Meter box enclosures are commonly installed in situations including:
These boxes are normally built into the external wall during construction so that the front of the enclosure sits flush with the finished brickwork.
When selecting a meter box enclosure, several factors are typically considered during installation:

|---|---|---|
| Recessed electric meter box | Built into external masonry wall | Housing electricity meters |
| Recessed gas meter box | Installed within external wall | Housing gas meter installations |
| Universal smart gas meter box | Recessed wall installation | Smart gas meter installations |
