Abstract
An automatic teller machine (ATM) with an operable front panel and an openable service panel is securely enclosed in an enclosure. The enclosure includes a first side wall extending at least from a floor at a first side of the ATM up, over and down to the floor on the second side of the ATM. A front wall with a cut-out zone therein, is provided which moves between an inward position and an outward position. In its position the front wall is secured to the first side wall. In its outward position the front wall is spaced from the first side wall. The cut-out zone has a perimeter sized and shaped to permit access to the operable front panel of the ATM when the front wall is in its inward position. Together the first side wall and the front wall define a first enclosure. A second side wall is connected to and extends inwardly from the front wall. When the front wall is in its outward position the second side wall extends between the first side wall and the front wall to provide a second enclosure space outward of and in communication with first enclosure space. A flexible shield, movable between a retracted and protracted position, is provided. The shield in its protracted position covers the cut-out zone and in its retracted position permits the cut-out zone to encompass the teller machine front panel.
