An enclosure for protecting electrical components, cables and the like. The enclosure has a plurality of faces which define a volume with an opening to provide access. One face has apertures for receiving fixing screws to fix the enclosure to a wall or surface. There is a lid to close the opening. Spacer members separate the enclosure from the surface. Each has a bore extending through it and a threaded portion extending from a surface of the face which engages the apertured face of the enclosure. For each spacer there is a cap for covering the aperture and sealing the apertured face. Also provided for each spacer is a retainer for threading onto the externally threaded portions when the spacer's threaded portion extend through the apertured face.
