Our standard sizes can be stretched, shrunk or molded to fit the needs of our customers. Our industry-leading warehoused inventories can be your key to quick turn-key success when time constraints are a given.

15 year warranty

Our warranty leads the industry at 15 years. We offer customers a unique experience from the moment they pick up the phone until the time they receive the product and even after the sale, if follow up support is needed for any reason.

Safety

Because safety is such a concern today, we build our enclosures primarily out of our own Alumiflex® material, with safety margins being that of products being lifted overhead and exceeding seismic ratings under, ASME B30.20, B30.9, and BTH 1, as well as Telcordia GR 63.  DDB has led the industry by backing its claims with certified data points from 3rd party engineering in order to stay ahead of the competition. We blow the competition away with our enclosures taking more wind than the competition, tested to meet or exceed ASCE 7-10 with optional 200mph options available. Take a look at our WIND STUDY. Whether on the coast of Florida or the mountains of Colorado or even on the San Andreas, we have you covered.

NEMA Ratings

DDB NEMA 3R Enclosures

  • Built to be tough and dependable, DDB's American-made enclosures rated NEMA 3R offer ventilated options. This does reduce the protection against windblown dust, but this protection can be enhanced by using screens and/or air filters placed in the louvered openings. NEMA 3R enclosures offer superior protection in both indoor and outdoor environments. Outdoor: water elements, rain, snow, formation of ice, falling dirt, blowing dirt/dust. Indoor: protects from all the same elements and indoor issues such as water / moisture drops from above.
