Not great for outdoors

This box would work well if you do not use it outside and do not have to open it again after your initial installation. I have had mine outside for nearly a year and there are 4 issues with it: 1) The screws are not rustproof! Since this is supposed to be a "waterproof" box it doesn't help if the screws used almost immediately start to rust after getting wet. The 4 screws are also counter sunk into top of box. This allows water to sit in the screw holes if you mount this flat like the picture shows. 2) The screws thread into the plastic itself. If you need to open and close this somewhat frequently you are likely to strip the plastic threads. 3) You are likely to lose the screws since the screws do not stay attached to the lid when opening the box like some other boxes. 4) Box is starting to yellow after being out in sun for almost year. Would look into BUD Industries boxes which use hinges and clamps instead of screws.
