Hi,

Aeromax has fiberglass battery enclosures with uni-strut mounted inside 
with adjustable battery trays, these are nice boxes.

I typically use B-Line enclosures.  They have an extensive catalog of 
enclosures on line at www.b-line.com  A friend of mine who owns Hefner 
Electric in Burbank usually uses B-Line enclosures for the control 
systems they make for the Disney theme park rides.  I know that he uses 
only the highest quality materials.

I hope this helps.
