The housing is formed integrally from two molded joined sections and has a bottom inturned flange that reinforces the housing and also is used to secure the housing on a ground supported pad. The door is provided with an inturned peripheral flange and the housing around the door opening is formed with a semi-circular or U-shaped guard flange receiving the inturned flange on the door to provide a tamper-proof joint around the door.
