Abstract

A substantially rectangularly shaped metal housing includes a top wall, a rear wall, a pair of side walls and a bottom wall. The front edges of the side walls carry a pair of opposed, vertically extending channel members which are adapted to accommodate the side edges of a substantially rectangularly shaped front cover. A lock is mounted at the upper central portion of the cover which locks into a cooperating element on the inside top wall. The lock also interferes with the bottom wall when the cover is slid downwardly to allow the cover to be suspended by the housing. One of the upper corners of the cover is cut off so that the cover can be rotated and removed when in the suspended position. A strand bar extends between and is supported by a pair of opposed tapered indentations in the interior side walls.
