Outdoor network switch enlosure what are you using?

Recently I've been finding the need to place switches in outbuildings and remote locations. I've been building my own PVC enclosures with water tight fittings but I'm curious what you guys are using, buying or building.

thanks

my local hardware stores (HD and Lowes) also carry them for about the same price, they work very well if you do it right..

FYI the lock is worthless, a screw driver will distort the plastic enough it'll pop right open.. so consider installing them at a height/location they are not easily accessible.. but I suspect most boxes like this are just designed to keep honest people honest, actual secure ones made out of hardened steel would be a pretty penny.
