ABSTRACT:
A security box is provided with a closure inserted or removed from a channelled opening in one wall thereof. The closure has a security plate attached to the inside wall thereof, which security plate has rearwardly extending flanges on two sides thereof with a portion between said sides having a flange with an elongate tongue portion adapted to extend through a slot in the channel in the box such that a latch bar of a lock can nest in an opening in the tongue behind the channel for locking the closure in place on the box. The other end portion of the security plate has an offset ledge spaced from the wall of the closure such that the ledge is positioned behind one edge of the opening in the box which, in combination with the lock, prevents removal of the closure from the box. In one modified form, the security box has outwardly facing channels completely around the opening and the security plate has two rearwardly extending tongue portions on opposite sides thereof which fit through slots in the channel so that a latch bar can simultaneously nest in openings in the two tongue portions and behind the channels for locking the closure to the box. In another modification, an interfitting portion of the security plate nests behind the one channel with the latch bar secured in an opening in the tongue portion and behind the channel so as to hold the closure securely in the opening in the box.
