The problem

Broken meter box hinge?
You don't need a new box.

Most broken meter box doors are a pain to repair because the original hinge points have failed, the box is mounted tight to a wall, or there simply isn't enough clearance for a conventional repair. Replacing the whole box can mean calling an electrician — and potential grid costs. There's a better way.

Why it works

Designed around
real-world installs

Instead of relying on the original hinge points, the MeterBoxFix uses flat fixing plates, a flexible central hinge section, and multiple mounting positions — so it works in places where everything else fails.

will look like.

Fitted in minutes. Neat, secure, and barely noticeable — just a door that opens and closes properly again.

• The original fixing area is cracked, damaged, or no longer usable
• You want a neat, permanent repair — not gaffer tape
• You need to avoid the cost and hassle of an electrician replacing the full box
• You manage multiple properties and need a reliable, repeatable fix
