    Sorry if that’s they wrong terminology , we have two of these at the front of the house for phone and internet cabling and one wasn’t put back in properly and blew away

    Opening is 180 x 240 and box itself was 220x300

    They are actually known as eircom boxes.
    I bought one recently from an electrical wholesalers in Finglas. About €30 for the box and cover.

    They are used for NTL cables etc

    Can you get to the back of it from the other side?

    You may just have to use some form of builders adhesive / No More Nails kind of thing.
