Claims16
An enclosure assembly for securely mounting an electronic component to an exterior surface of a door via attachment of a latching mechanism to the door, the enclosure assembly comprising:
- a mounting frame having a mounting opening formed therein through which the latching mechanism is attachable to the door for securely mounting the mounting frame of the enclosure assembly to the door, the mounting frame further having a base end;
- and
- a housing connected to the mounting frame at the base end, the housing having an interior volume into which the electronic component is receivable and including sidewalls that, at least in part, define the interior volume and that include at least one connection opening formed therein for reception of the base end of the mounting frame, the base end of the mounting frame being received in the at least one connection opening to securely connect the mounting frame to the housing,
- wherein the enclosure assembly includes a rearward-facing contact surface for contacting the exterior surface of the door, such that the interior volume of the housing is disposed entirely forward of the rearward-facing contact surface.

A secure cabinet assembly comprising:
- a cabinet having a door that provides selective access to an interior of the cabinet;
- a latching mechanism mounted to the door, the latching mechanism adapted to selectively lock the door and provide access to the interior of the cabinet via the door;
- and
- an enclosure assembly securely mounted to an exterior surface of the door via connection of the latching mechanism to an exterior surface of the door, the enclosure assembly comprising:
- a mounting frame having a mounting opening formed therein through which the latching mechanism is attached to the door, thereby securely mounting the mounting frame of the enclosure assembly to the door, the mounting frame further having a base end;
- and
- a housing connected to the mounting frame at the base end, the housing having an interior volume in which an electronic component is received, and including sidewalls that, at least in part, define the interior volume and that include at least one connection opening formed therein for reception of the base end of the mounting frame, the base end of the mounting frame being received in the at least one connection opening to securely connect the mounting frame to the housing,
- wherein the enclosure assembly includes a rearward-facing contact surface for contacting the exterior surface of the door, such that the interior volume of the housing is disposed entirely forward of the rearward-facing contact surface.
