datadiffusion Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Only ever seen them on buildings, did once have a BNIB Initial Shorrock box but I sold it a while ago That said since then I've picked up a proper old metal Chubb in reasonable condition, seen better, seen much worse, and that BNIB Modern Alarms hex so I'm not too sad* Would love a white square dome style Securicor Granley still in the box! *insert own disclaimer here So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42960-anyone-got-a-shorrock-for-sale/#findComment-486634 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrHappy Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I's guess the one in the picture is a decoy GRP cover with Blue plastic coated steel bracket, I've removed dummies but never a live one Mr Veritas God Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42960-anyone-got-a-shorrock-for-sale/#findComment-486651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whistle Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Tried to remove a live one once, took about an hour with a claw hammer.

datadiffusion Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) So basically they look like a DIY shop (of the day) box but under the skin they are actually a lot better made than that? Just noticed there is one on the back of an old Fyne Fayre in our high street that's now a DIY shop Edited July 24, 2019 by datadiffusion So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42960-anyone-got-a-shorrock-for-sale/#findComment-486657 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I missed your post, the Chubb is a triangle type, but metal. In good condition for age but totally empty... It is so empty I do think it might always have been a dummy, but hard to tell with these older boxes sometimes, not all had special dummy brackets...
